Overview
Interventional Cardiology focuses on the diagnosis and minimally invasive treatment of cardiovascular diseases.
Through techniques such as catheterization or stent placement, it treats coronary obstructions, arrhythmias, and other cardiac conditions without open surgery, promoting faster and safer recovery.
Common Conditions Treated
- Coronary artery disease (angina, myocardial infarction)
- Cardiac arrhythmias (atrial fibrillation, tachycardia)
- Heart failure
- Cardiomyopathies
- Valvular stenosis
- Adult congenital heart disease
What to Expect During Your Visit
The consultation includes a thorough clinical assessment, reviewing cardiovascular history, current symptoms, and previous tests.
Additional diagnostic studies such as echocardiograms, ECGs, or stress tests may be requested. If a condition is confirmed, a suitable interventional procedure (e.g., catheterization, angioplasty) will be scheduled.
