Semi-invasive methods to study heart and blood vessels without surgery and likely to perform on individuals who have symptoms of coronary artery issues. Coronary artery disease is a serious condition and can lead to a heart attack. It occurs as a result of abnormalities in the heart’s performance and blockages in the arteries supplying blood to the heart or coronary arteries. Before the patients undergo heart surgery, the doctors recommend cardiac catheterization, coronary, and peripheral angiography. The procedure evaluates the blockage in the heart’s arteries and any abnormalities in its function. The cardiology department takes care of cardiac catheterization to release dye into the coronary arteries through this procedure. Aster Hospital has a team of dynamic cardiologists who have performed several heart procedures and surgeries successfully. They have elongated the patients’ life by widening the blocked or narrowed blood vessels painlessly.

Evaluate and diagnose coronary blood arteries. People suffering from heart conditions might encounter various problems such as frequent chest pains, increased heart palpitation, abnormal beating of heart etc. The person may not be sure if he/she needs a heart surgery or not. For such cases an Intravascular Ultrasound is advisable. Aster’s Intravascular Ultrasound keenly evaluates the heart condition by inserting a catheter inside the artery. Aster’s Cardiology Department is well equipped with different types of ultrasound devices and machines. One can rely on the team of expert doctors for proper diagnosis and course of action.

Determining the ratio between the maximum possible blood flow in a diseased artery and theoretical ideal flow in a normal artery. People who have cardiovascular diseases might suffer from blockage in some artery or vein, blood clot, narrowed artery etc. This can have life-threatening consequences such as high blood pressure, cardiac arrest or sudden heart failure. Aster’s Fractional Flow Reserve Measurement ensures proper measurement of the ratio between maximum achievable blood flow within a diseased artery to that of a normal one. Aster’s Cardiology Department has an advanced setup and logistics, along with a team of doctors who can identify and treat abnormal vascular conditions.

To open narrowed or blocked blood vessels and treat the buildup of fatty plaques. People often face several issues related to their heart health. This may happen due to many reasons including blockage in arteries, buildup of fatty plaques in blood vessels, improper lifestyle, and obesity. The person may suffer from chest pains, sudden palpitations in heart beat and even heart attack in some cases. Aster’s Coronary Angioplasty Stenting intends on opening the blockage in the heart's blood vessel by placing a stent which helps prop the artery open. The Cardiology Department at Aster hospital specializes in coronary intervention. They have all the latest techniques and equipment to open clogged heart arteries and improve the flow of blood.

To monitor and regulate the heartbeat rate. People with heart conditions might encounter electrical imbalance in the heart. This can lead to several life-threatening problems including sudden palpitations, abnormal heartbeat, sudden slow-down of heart rate, and cardiac arrest. Aster’s Pacemaker Implantation involves insertion of a small electronic device inside the chest which maintains and regulates the electrical balance inside the heart. The Cardiology Department of the Aster hospital is equipped with the latest technological setup and machines needed to carry out such an implantation. The experienced doctors provide proper diagnosis and treatment to patients with heart conditions.

Improve blood flow by inserting a catheter through a vein. People suffering from mitral valve stenosis can have a narrowing in the mitral valve. Also, the narrowing in the tricuspid or pulmonary valve might have irregular heart beat, breathlessness, exhaustion or fatigue, and sudden palpitations. Aster’s Aortic Balloon Valvuloplasty aims at improving the flow of blood by threading a balloon into the vein which is inflated in the narrowed valve. The Cardiology Department of Aster hospital has a well equipped infrastructure with all the advanced machines and techniques. The team of practised doctors diagnose and treat patients with mitral valve conditions.
