At
Heart Institutes we have a dedicated team of cardiologists who work in tandem
to provide comprehensive, multidisciplinary care to patients suffering from
heart ailments. Our team of doctors, nurses, technicians and other heart
experts are there to ensure excellence in patient care with human touch. Heart
Institutes at Indraprastha Apollo Hospital is committed to provide
health care of international standard at affordable cost. Our highly qualified
team of cardiologists along with the latest technology ensures best possible
care for a wide spectrum of heart diseases.
Cardiac Electrophysiological
department
At
Cardiac Electrophysiological department our highly skilled team with advanced
technology is always motivated to serve the patient suffering from cardiac
ailments. This is a field of cardiology which deals with electrical system of
the heart and its abnormalities viz. variations in heart rate and rhythm. It
covers patient with palpitations fast or slow heart beating (pulses), episodes
of blackout patient at high risk of sudden cardiac arrest. It offer treatments
on basis of Electrophysiological study and Radio Frequency ablation pace maker
and ICD (defibrillator implantation). Our dedicated electrophysiological team
at Apollo having enormous experience in all kinds of electrophysiology studies,
radiofrequency ablations, pacemaker and device implantations and
resynchronization therapy.
Non-Invasive Cardiology
Non-invasive
cardiology is relatively new field dealing with cardiac ultrasound as well as
various modalities of stress. It has broad range of applications in which
encompasses the entire spectrum of cardiac and vascular disease. It is crucial
too the evaluation and management of coronary artery disease, rheumatic and
valvular heart disease, cardiomyopathies, peripheral vascular, reno vascular
carotid artery disease. Recently, owing to the advent of several percutaneous
interventions. It is being increasingly used to guide these interventions. For
example device closure of ASD,VSD,placement of stent grafts as well as
endovascular laser ablation for varicose veins. At Indraprastha
Apollo Hospital we are performing on an average 100-110 basic and advanced
echocardiographic and Doppler based procedure including Echo,(2-D,3D and
contrast echo, TEE), stress echo, carotic and vascular Doppler studies,
dyssynchrony evaluation. In addition this lab is extremely busy with TMT and
performs 60-70 such procedures every day.

Spectrum
of Services Offered:
Cardiology
Consultants and Interventional
cardiologist are available round the clock. Two fully functional cath lab
equipped with L. F. airconditioning shadowless operating lights, electronic
cardiac tables, multichannel monitors, defibrillators and advanced micro
vascular instruments, guarantee the best cardiac care to the patient at par
with international standards. The division extends its services to significant
number of international patients. A substantial number of patients from Iraq,
Afghanistan, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Ethiopia, Nigeria and Sri Lanka have
availed of our services in addition to a few from USA, UK and Europe. A 17 bed
dedicated and fully equipped intensive care (adjacent to the cath lab )
provides 1:1 nursing care by specially trained nurse’s day & night. While
the Intensive care is being actually attended by Registrars and residents, what
sets Apollo CTVS ICU apart from other is the supervisory vigil kept by the
dedicated team of anesthesiologists.
