Kamineni Hospital as one of the best heart hospitals in Hyderabad provides exceptional treatment and care for various diseases.
Procedures
2D/3D Echocardiography:
2D/3D technology allows cardiologists to get a clear picture of structural abnormalities of the heart. It is the major noninvasive diagnostic tool used in cardiology diagnoses and treatment procedures. It helps in real-time imaging of cardiac structure and function. Cardiologists get a detailed anatomical assessment of cardiac pathology, especially valvular defects and cardiomyopathies.
This technology helps cardiologists to find complications of the heart such as:
- Assessment of contractility of the heart
- Morphological and functional assessment of heart valve
- Detect any congenital abnormalities of the heart in children
- Detects the presence of blood clots/tumours/infections
- Detects the disorders and muscle enlargement of the heart
Electrocardiogram (ECG):
Cardiologists at Kamineni Hospital are equipped with state-of-the-art equipment to deliver exceptional treatment and conduct advanced procedures. One such advanced procedure is an electrocardiogram.
Electrocardiogram tests help cardiologists understand and check patients’ heart rhythm and electrical activity. In this process, sensors will be attached to the patient’s skin. These sensors detect and record the electrical signal produced by the patient’s heartbeat. Cardiologists study and analyze this data to find any unusual activity in the heart.
ECG test is most commonly used along with other tests to diagnose and monitor unusual conditions related to the heart. It helps in detecting possible cardio problems such as:
- Assessment of contractility of the heart
- arrhythmias
- Coronary heart disease
- Heart attacks
- Cardiomyopathy
- Heart-related complications like chest pain, palpitations, dizziness, and shortness of breath.
Intra Aortic Balloon Pump:
Intra aortic balloon pump (IABP) helps your heart to pump blood to your body, especially during or after a procedure. It is called a therapeutic pump used for patients when their hearts are unable to pump enough blood for the body.
In this procedure, a balloon is inserted into your aorta. Aorta is a very large artery leaving your heart. Cardiologists make a small cut on the inside of the patient’s upper leg for this procedure. Then the doctor will insert the balloon pump catheter into an artery in your leg.
This procedure is mainly used for short-term purposes. Patients may need it until their heart condition gets better or until they move on to other procedures. Some of the common heart complications that lead to this type of therapeutic process.
- Unstable angina
- Heart attack
- Certain abnormal heart rhythms
- Heart failure
- Heart defects
