Cardiologists are medical doctors who specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of heart and cardiovascular diseases.
Some of the common conditions that cardiologists diagnose and treat include:
Coronary artery disease: This is a condition where the blood vessels that supply the heart with oxygen-rich blood become narrowed or blocked.
Heart failure: This is a condition where the heart is unable to pump blood effectively to meet the body’s needs.
Arrhythmias: These are abnormal heart rhythms, which can cause the heart to beat too fast, too slow, or irregularly.
Valvular heart disease: This is a condition where the valves in the heart do not function properly, leading to reduced blood flow or backflow of blood.
Congenital heart disease: This is a condition where there are defects present in the heart that are present from birth.
Our Cardiologists use a range of diagnostic tests and procedures to diagnose heart and cardiovascular diseases. These may include electrocardiogram (ECG), echocardiogram, stress test, cardiac catheterization, and coronary angiography. Treatment options for heart and cardiovascular diseases may include medication, lifestyle modifications, and various surgical procedures, such as angioplasty or bypass surgery.
Our Cardiologists also play a critical role in preventive cardiology, which involves identifying risk factors for heart disease, such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, smoking, and obesity. They can provide guidance on lifestyle modifications, such as diet and exercise, to help reduce the risk of heart disease.
Kashvi hospitals work closely with healthcare professionals, such as primary care physicians, cardiovascular surgeons, and electrophysiologists, to provide comprehensive care to patients with heart and cardiovascular diseases.
