It further limits invasiveness by using a smaller incision and operating on a beating heart. It is a challenging procedure, and Manipal surgeons are among very few surgeons performing this procedure. During this procedure, the vascular surgeons in Delhi use advanced equipment to re-establish blood flow to coronary arteries. It is done by bypassing the blocked blood vessels and stabilizing heart portions in an extremely organized environment. With Manipal, you entrust your cardiac health to a team of surgeons dedicated to pioneering techniques that redefine the landscape of minimally invasive cardiac procedures.

An X-ray imaging test is done to see if there are any restrictions in blood flow going to your heart. This is the most common test to help doctors diagnose heart conditions. During coronary angiography, a small catheter or tube is inserted through the skin into an artery in the groin or the Hand. Through a special x-ray viewing instrument, the catheter is moved to the opening of the coronary arteries which supply blood to the heart. A small amount of solution containing iodine is injected into each artery. The images that are produced are called the angiogram which accurately reveals the blockages.

Coronary angioplasty is routinely done to open clogged heart arteries. It can improve symptoms such as chest pain and shortness of breath. Angioplasty is also often used during a heart attack to quickly open a blocked artery and reduce the amount of damage to your heart. It involves inserting and inflating a tiny balloon into the spot where your artery is clogged to help widen the artery. Angioplasty can also be done through the artery in your wrist instead of the arm or thigh. The radial approach, through the wrist, is usually preferred by cardiologists due to its benefits in terms of bleeding, its superficial location and easy compressibility and low risk of restricted blood supply to the tissues. Rotablation The rotational Atherectomy of coronary arteries technique is used to debulk the heavily calcified coronary arteries and to prepare the lesion for a stent implantation, through the thigh.

A cardiac device helps control irregular heartbeats to protect against heart rhythm disorders. One of the most commonly used cardiac devices is a pacemaker, which produces electrical stimuli to the hearst to help it maintain rhythm.An Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD) is used to assist the heart's ventricles to restore their capacity after an irregularity. The surgery to implant these devices is quick and patients are often discharged soon after the procedure is completed.

This is a procedure that involves the opening of the chest cavity and creating a bypass system that allows blood to pump through your body without going through the heart. During open heart surgery, the heart is stopped for a period of time until surgical procedures or investigations can be completed. Once the surgical objective has been achieved, the surgeon restarts the heart and closes up the chest cavity.

At Manipal Hospitals, we also provide cardiovascular services to children. Pediatric cardiologists trained in treating children work together with other pediatric specialists to diagnose and treat children and adolescents. Antenatal Fetal Echocardiogram

The heart muscle, in order to function, needs food and oxygen to survive. The arteries or the blood vessels present within the heart supply the required food and oxygen to the heart muscles. These blood vessels in the heart may get blocked and narrowed due to several reasons, such as unhealthy eating habits, smoking and lack of exercise. As the blockage decreases, the blood supply to the heart muscle gradually decreases, which ultimately leads to a total cut-off. The formation of blockage leads to the heart muscle not getting enough food and oxygen, resulting inaheart attack.
