Our Services
Coronary Artery Disease (CAD):
CAD occurs when the blood vessels (coronary arteries) that supply blood to the heart become narrowed or blocked due to a buildup of plaque. This can lead to angina (chest pain) or a heart attack.
Myocardial Infarction (Heart Attack)
A heart attack occurs when there is a sudden blockage of blood flow to a portion of the heart muscle, often due to a blood clot. It can result in damage to the heart muscle.
Heart Failure:
Heart failure is a condition in which the heart is unable to pump blood effectively, leading to symptoms such as fatigue, shortness of breath, and fluid retention.
Arrhythmias
Arrhythmias are abnormal heart rhythms. They can be too fast (tachycardia), too slow (bradycardia), or irregular. Common arrhythmias include atrial fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia.
Hypertension (High Blood Pressure)
High blood pressure is a common condition in which the force of blood against the artery walls is consistently too high. It can lead to various cardiovascular problems if not managed.
Heart Valve Disease
This includes conditions where the heart valves (such as the aortic or mitral valve) are damaged or malfunctioning, leading to problems with blood flow.
Congenital Heart Defects:
These are heart abnormalities present at birth, ranging from minor defects to complex structural issues.
Cardiomyopathy
Cardiomyopathy refers to diseases of the heart muscle, which can lead to a weakened heart and reduced pumping capacity.
Pericarditis
Pericarditis is inflammation of the pericardium, the sac around the heart. It can cause chest pain and discomfort.
Aortic Aneurysm
An aortic aneurysm is a bulge or swelling in the aorta, the body's main artery. If it ruptures, it can be life-threatening.
Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD)
PAD involves the narrowing or blockage of arteries in the limbs, typically the legs, leading to reduced blood flow and symptoms like leg pain.
Pulmonary Hypertension
This condition involves high blood pressure in the arteries of the lungs, which can strain the right side of the heart.
Endocarditis
Endocarditis is an infection of the inner lining of the heart chambers and valves.
Cardiac Tumors
Tumors can develop in the heart, although they are relatively rare.
Heart Palpitations
Palpitations are sensations of a rapid or irregular heartbeat, which can be caused by various underlying conditions.
