Interventional Cardiology in Bangalore

What Is Interventional Cardiology?

Interventional Cardiology in Bangalore is a branch whereby medical professionals diagnose and treat a limited range of heart conditions using catheters. These procedures can often be carried out using a rather small entry point in the wrist or groin area.

In contrast to traditional cardiovascular surgeries, many minimally invasive cardiac procedures do not require large wounds and extensive recovery times; however, suitability of treatment is contingent on the patient's general health, symptoms and results of tests conducted and on the structure of the arteries.

Heart Conditions

Conditions Treated Through Interventional Cardiology

Coronary Artery Disease
Coronary Artery Disease

Coronary artery disease is caused due to deposition of fatty substance in the blood vessels supplying blood to the heart.

Heart Attack
Heart Attack

Heart attack occurs due to sudden interruption of blood reaching the heart, requiring immediate emergency treatment.

Angina
Angina

Angina is characterized by pain in the chest or discomfort due to decreased blood flow to the heart.

Blocked or Narrowed Arteries
Blocked or Narrowed Arteries

Blocked arteries or narrowed arteries can be treated using drugs, angioplasty, stenting, or bypass surgery.

Other Cardiac Conditions
Other Cardiac Conditions

Some selected heart diseases such as structural diseases, valvular diseases, and congenital diseases can also be treated using Interventional Cardiology after necessary evaluation by doctors.

Procedures

Cardiac Procedures Performed at Our Cath Lab

 Cardiac procedures at DHEE Hospitals Cath Lab

These Cardiac Catheterization procedures help specialists diagnose coronary disease and restore blood flow when clinically appropriate.

Coronary Angiography

It helps the cardiologist assess the location and severity of the problem.

Coronary Angioplasty

It may be recommended for significant coronary disease or during certain cardiac emergencies.

Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI)

During PCI, the cardiologist guides the required devices to the affected artery using real-time imaging.

Coronary Stent Placement

An ECG records the heart's electrical activity and can help identify rhythm problems or changes associated with cardiac conditions.

Echocardiography
Echocardiography

Echocardiography uses ultrasound to examine the heart's chambers, valves, blood flow and pumping function.

Treadmill Test (TMT)
Treadmill Test (TMT)

A Treadmill Test (TMT) evaluates how the heart responds to controlled exercise. It is recommended only when appropriate for the patient.

Coronary Angiography
Coronary Angiography

Coronary Angiography may be advised when symptoms or other test findings suggest significant coronary artery disease.

Angioplasty and Stenting
Angioplasty and Stenting

Coronary Angioplasty and coronary stent placement may be performed when a narrowing is suitable for catheter-based treatment.

If clinically appropriate, Coronary Angioplasty or PCI may be performed to restore blood flow. Do not delay seeking help because the symptoms appear mild or unusual.

Consult a cardiologist in Bangalore

When Should You See a Cardiologist?

Consult a Cardiologist if you experience recurring chest pain, breathlessness, palpitations, fainting, unexplained fatigue or reduced exercise capacity. People with high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, abnormal cardiac tests or a family history of heart disease may also benefit from an assessment.

A heart specialist can determine whether you require monitoring, medicines, lifestyle changes or further testing. Sudden or severe symptoms require emergency care rather than a routine appointment.

The Procedure

How Is Cardiac Catheterization Performed?

Cardiac Catheterization is performed in a specialised room with continuous monitoring and real-time imaging.

How cardiac catheterization is performed
1
Medical Evaluation

The cardiac evaluation may include a physical examination, ECG, blood tests and relevant imaging.

2
Preparation

Cath Lab preparation may involve temporary fasting or medicine adjustments. Never stop prescribed medicines without medical advice.

3
Catheter Insertion

During catheter insertion, the wrist or groin is numbed before a thin catheter is guided through a blood vessel towards the heart.

4
Imaging and Diagnosis

Contrast dye and cardiac imaging help display the arteries. Real-time imaging allows the cardiologist to identify a coronary artery blockage.

5
Treatment and Recovery

Angioplasty or PCI may be performed if treatment is required and suitable. Recovery after cardiac catheterization includes monitoring the access site, blood pressure, pulse and heart rhythm. Discharge timing depends on the procedure and the patient's condition.

Benefits of a Modern Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory

A modern Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory supports faster cardiac diagnosis and timely cardiac treatment. Its key benefits include:

  • A minimally invasive cardiac procedure through the wrist or groin
  • Advanced cardiac imaging for greater procedural precision
  • Diagnosis and treatment during the same visit when appropriate
  • Shorter cardiac procedure recovery than open-heart surgery in many cases

These cardiac procedures still carry potential risks, which the medical team explains to the patient.

What is a cardiac catheterization lab?

A Cardiac Catheterization Lab also called a Cath Lab is a diagnostic room where cardiologists carry out various procedures using radiological guidance.

What is interventional cardiology?

Interventional cardiology is a clinical discipline that employs catheters, balloons, stents, and other instruments for treating certain heart conditions through a tiny opening.

What procedures are performed in a Cath Lab?

Some common cardiac procedures carried out in the Cath Lab include coronary angiography, angioplasty, and placement of stents.

What is the difference between angiography and angioplasty?

Coronary angiography is a diagnostic procedure used to see if blood flow in arteries is hampered whereas coronary angioplasty is a therapeutic technique that aims to reopen narrowed arteries by means of balloons.

Is cardiac catheterization painful?

The process of cardiac catheterization is initiated after numbing the affected area where the catheter will be inserted. Patients feel slight discomfort only during the procedure.
