Coronary angioplasty and stent procedure is also called Percutaneous Coronary Intervention or simply PCI. Coronary Angioplasty or Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty (PTCA)…
Primary angioplasty is a procedure that uses a balloon catheter or stent to treat obstructed/narrowed/blocked coronary arteries to improve blood flow to the heart. The coronary arteries are usually blocked…
Coronary Angiogram is a diagnostic procedure that uses X-ray imaging to identify narrowing of the blood vessels supplying the heart. It is a gold standard procedure for diagnosing blockages in the arterial system…
An Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) is a common congenital heart disease where the septum is not formed properly producing a left-to-right shunt, which leads to mixing of oxygenated and…
Ventricular septal defects (VSD) is a common type of congenital heart defect, which is characterized by an abnormal opening or a hole in the interventricular septum, the dividing wall between…
Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is a congenital heart condition in which there is an opening between the pulmonary artery and the aorta. The ductus arteriosus is a small connection in the…
Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR or TAVI) is a procedure where the damaged valve is replaced by an artificial valve. TAVR is a minimally invasive procedure and does not require…
Venous thromboembolism (VTE), deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE) affects 1 to 2 individuals per 1,000 annually. These are the leading cause of preventable hospital…
Fistuloplasty is a way of relieving a blockage in the arteriovenous fistula. This allows access to dialysis without having an operation. The blockage is opened up using a special device…
Narrowing or restricting blood flow across the mitral valve located between the left atrium and left ventricle is known as mitral stenosis. Balloon Mitral Valvotomy best does treatment of Mitral…
Conditions
Chronic limb ischemia is also called peripheral arterial disease. Chronic limb ischemia is due to cholesterol plaque accumulation in blood vessels with consequent blood clot formation…
Aortic stenosis is narrowed aortic valve opening. It is the most common valvular problem in the West and in India, the prevalence is increasing. Aortic valve guards and directs blow flow from…
The narrowing of the mitral valve, which lies between the upper left atrium and lower left ventricle, is called mitral valve stenosis. This condition limits the blood flow from the left…
Atrial fibrillation is an irregular or fast beating of upper chambers (atria) of heart leading to ineffective blood pumping to various organs. Atrial fibrillation is termed as “A-fib” in short form…
Heart palpitations are a sensation of irregular or rapid heartbeat. It feels like skipping the beat, fluttering or pounding. This sensation can be felt in the chest, neck and throat.
The amount of force that blood put against the artery wall to circulate throughout the body is called blood pressure. High blood pressure occurs when the blood flows through arteries with…
Ventricular septal defects (VSD) are congenital abnormalities characterized by a structural deficiency of the ventricular septum that separates lower chambers of the heart.80 % of VSD type…
Before the baby is born, the fetus blood does not require passing to lungs to get oxygenated. The ductus arteriosus is a hole that allows skipping the circulation through the lungs. A small patent…
Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy is a genetic disorder, where the muscle wall (septum) between the lower chambers of heart, thickens abnormally resulting in improper functioning of the heart…
Varicose veins are swollen, dilated, enlarged and twisted veins. This condition may occur in any superficial veins, but most commonly in your legs and feet that appear as bluish purple or red…
Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) is a serious medical condition in which blood clot forms in the deep veins such as lower leg, thigh or arm vein due decrease in the blood flow rate. This condition…
The inflammation of the cardiac muscle (Myocardium) is called Myocarditis. When the cardiac muscle is inflamed, the heart cannot pump blood effectively to reach metabolic demands of…
The inflammation of the inner layer (endocardium) of heart chambers and valves is called endocarditis. If this inflammation is caused by infection, it is called infective endocarditis…
The inflammation of the thin, two-layered fluid-filled sac that surrounds the heart (pericardium) is known as Pericarditis. This condition leads to friction between two layers when the heartbeats…
Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) is a condition in which blood flow to lower limbs is affected due to narrowed or blocked arteries. PAD is also known as Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD)…
Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a blockage of blood vessels supplying the lungs (pulmonary artery) due to blood clot. These blood clots arise from deep veins of lower leg or thigh or arm…
