Advanced Cardiac Interventions
Advanced Cardiac Interventions involve cutting-edge, minimally invasive procedures designed to diagnose, treat, and manage complex heart conditions without the need for open-heart surgery. These procedures are crucial for patients with severe coronary artery disease, structural heart problems, or high-risk cardiac conditions. At Aravali Clinic, we specialize in the latest techniques to improve heart function, restore blood flow, and enhance overall cardiac health.
What are Advanced Cardiac Interventions?
These procedures use high-precision imaging, catheter-based techniques, and specialized devices to treat heart disease efficiently. They help in:
- Opening blocked arteries to prevent heart attacks
- Repairing or replacing heart valves without surgery
- Improving heart function in patients with weak heart muscles
- Closing congenital heart defects using minimally invasive methods
Types of Advanced Cardiac Interventions
- Rotablation (Rotational Atherectomy)
- Used for calcified or hardened artery blockages that cannot be treated with standard angioplasty.
- A tiny diamond-tipped rotating burr is used to break down plaque, allowing smoother blood flow.
- Ensures better results for complex coronary artery disease cases.
- OCT/IVUS (Heart Artery Imaging)
- OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography) and IVUS (Intravascular Ultrasound) provide high-resolution imaging of arteries to assess blockages in detail.
- Helps in accurate stent placement and ensures better outcomes.
- Reduces the risk of complications by guiding precise interventions.
- FFR (Fractional Flow Reserve)
- A specialized test that measures blood pressure inside the coronary arteries to determine the severity of blockages.
- Helps cardiologists decide if angioplasty or bypass surgery is necessary.
- Prevents unnecessary procedures and ensures personalized treatment for each patient.
- Device Closures (ASD/PFO/VSD Closure)
- Used to close abnormal openings in the heart (Atrial Septal Defect, Patent Foramen Ovale, Ventricular Septal Defect).
- A small closure device is implanted using a catheter, avoiding open-heart surgery.
- Reduces stroke risk and improves heart efficiency.
How are Advanced Cardiac Interventions Performed?
- Local anesthesia is used for patient comfort.
- A catheter (thin tube) is inserted through a small incision in the groin or wrist.
- Real-time imaging guides the procedure to the affected heart area.
- The intervention is performed using specialized tools, stents, or closure devices.
- The catheter is removed, and the patient is monitored for a short period.
Most procedures take 1-2 hours, and patients experience a faster recovery with minimal discomfort.
Who Needs These Procedures?
Advanced cardiac interventions are recommended for patients with:
- Severe coronary artery disease (CAD)
- High-risk artery blockages that cannot be treated with standard angioplasty
- Structural heart defects requiring non-surgical closure
- Complex heart conditions needing precision-based treatment
Recovery and Post-Procedure Care
- Patients can resume daily activities within a few days.
- Regular follow-ups ensure the effectiveness of the treatment.
- Lifestyle changes, medications, and exercise help maintain heart health.
