Diagnostics Services
Electrocardiogram (ECG)
An ECG or electrocardiogram is useful in measuring the electrical activity of the heart. This basic test result is helpful in assessing heart symptoms such as chest pain, breathing problems, suspected heart attack and fainting (syncope). ECG procedure is in clinical use for a long time and is very safe non invasive procedure.
2D Echo
A 2D echocardiogram is a cardiac imaging test using ultrasound. The images of 2D echo are extremely beneficial in viewing the chambers of heart, valves, and major blood vessels to identify if there are any abnormalities. Some of the measurements taken in 2D echo are size of the chambers, pumping function, thickness of the walls, tumors or clots (if any), pressure on the lungs, and birth defect in the heart.
Treadmill test
Treadmill test also known as cardiac stress test is useful in understanding the ability of heart to respond to external stress/ exertion in a controlled clinical environment. The ECG measurements taken at maximum exertion are compared with at rest measurements to assess indirectly for the possibility of narrowed coronary arteries. The treadmill test is useful in patients with suspected coronary artery disease and also for assessing exercise-induced irregularity in heart beat. The treadmill test is generally safe in expert supervision.
Coronary angiogram
Angiogram is used as an invasive imaging technique to view the blockages in the blood vessels (called as coronary arteries) on the surface of the heart. It is usually a day care procedure performed in the cath lab using a narrow tube called as catheter. An angiogram is helpful in the assessment of chest pains, angina and suspected heart attacks.
Treatment
Dr Shiva Prasad’s cardiac centre is one of the few centres that offer radial artery procedures. We adopt latest technology and customize the treatment based on the patient’s medical condition for successful results. Some of the treatments provided:
- Primary PTCA (Stenting Procedure for Heart Attack)
- All forms of Complex Angioplasty (Left main stem Stenting, graft angioplasty and bifurcation lesions)
- Rotablation for calcified lesions
- All forms of coronary angioplasty and stenting
- Rotablation
- IVUS, OCT and pressure wire study
- Pacemaker
Cardiac catheterization
Cardiac catheterization (cath) is an invasive procedure involving insertion of a catheter (a narrow tube) into the heart and major blood vessel to diagnose and treat any abnormalities. The procedure may either be performed by entering from the femoral artery (in the groin) or through the radial artery (in the wrist). However, the radial route holds promising with faster recovery.
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA):
A PCI is a minimally invasive cath lab procedure to open up the narrowing in the coronary artery and place a stent to ensure free blood flow. In angioplasty, a balloon is inflated at the blocked area to stretch the artery and push the plaque to the side in order to restore blood flow. The interventional cardiologist thoroughly studies the patient and the medical condition before deciding the need for these procedures.
