Cardiology

Cardiology includes medical diagnosis and treatment of congenital heart defects, coronary artery disease, heart failure, valvular heart disease and electrophysiology.

Cardiology

Cardiovascular disorders are among the leading causes of ill-health worldwide. It is not age-relative i.e. people of any age can suffer from cardiovascular diseases. Lifestyle, genetic precedence, and stress are the major reasons for any type of heart disorders and diseases.

Cardiology encompasses the treatment and diagnosis of heart disorders such as heart failure, congenital heart defects, atherosclerosis, valvular heart diseases, electro-physiology and more. Yoga, meditation, trying to be stress-free, right nutrition, and other methods of wellness strategies have been found to reduce the risk of heart disease significantly.

Cure Getaways facilitates diagnosis as well as treatment of heart diseases for all, including pediatric heart conditions in reputed and well-known hospitals in India that have a high success rate.

Coronary Artery Diseases

Medical tourists from all over the world choose India as their primary destination for any kind of heart disease. This is because Indian healthcare facilities offer superior quality treatment at economical rates. Some of the most popular cardiovascular treatments medical tourists seek in India are:

Double valve replacement

Patients who have heart valve disease or have congenital defect undergo this double valve replacement procedure in this procedure both the mitral as well as the aortic valves undergo replacement under general anesthesia.

Double valve replacement

Coronary Artery Bypass Graft

This surgical procedure is done to restore the blood transfusion to your heart for the effective transportation of oxygen and other nutrients. An artery from your inner chest wall or vein in the leg is chosen for bypass graft procedure.

Angioplasty (including non-ionic contrast)

This is the surgery done to clear instructions in your coronary artery arising because of plaque.
Angioplasty procedure is done to increase the blood vessels’ diameter which have narrowed. The non-ionic contrast medium is important for the proper visualization of the Angioplasty procedure.

The two types of procedure are balloon stenting where a balloon stent is installed  to aid the removal of blockage and the other type is balloon angioplasty in which the blockage in your heart is removed by the inflated balloon.

Double Valve Replacement

Patients who have heart valve disease or have congenital defect undergo this double valve replacement procedure in this procedure both the mitral as well as the aortic valves undergo replacement under general anesthesia.

Balloon Aortic Valvuloplasty

This is a procedure done to widen your heart valves which have narrowed because of plaque. In this process, a flexible and thin tube which has a balloon attached is inserted through the arm or groin. When this tube reaches the valve, the attached balloon opens up resulting in widening of the valve.

Pediatric cardiac surgery – conduit repair

Children who have congenital heart defects can be treated with this procedure. It includes a surgery in which a stent is placed in the heart. The atrial switch operation is done to correct the position of arteries. Surgeons use patches to seal the chest incision in the atrioventricular canal defect.

Radio frequency catheter ablation and Electrophysiology study

An electrophysiology study is conducted to study the heart’s electrical activity. This helps to diagnose abnormal heart beat or arrhythmia. A minimally invasive technique called catheter ablation is performed to treat certain types of arrhythmia.

Pacemaker implant double chamber (only surgery)

A pacemaker is a small electrical device which is implanted in the chest to regulate the erratic rhythm of the heart. The pacemaker has two links and two chambers. One of the links with the upper chamber or right atrium of heart, and the other link connects to the right bottom chamber or the right ventricle. The electric pluses of the pacemaker corrects the heart rhythm and makes it normal.
