TAVI, or transcatheter aortic valve implantation, is a minimally-invasive procedure that replaces a faulty aortic valve with a new one. It's also known as TAVR, which stands for transcatheter aortic valve replacement. What it's used for TAVI is used to treat severe aortic valve stenosis, which is when the aortic valve doesn't open fully. It's often used for patients who are considered high surgical risk or inoperable. How it's performed? A catheter is inserted into a blood vessel in the chest or upper leg. The catheter is used to guide a replacement valve over the top of the old valve. A balloon on the tip of the catheter is inflated to widen the valve opening. The catheter is removed, and the replacement valve is compressed and placed on the tip of another catheter. The new valve is expanded using a balloon inflated underneath it. Since it is a minimally invasive procedure, patients generally go home the next day after the procedure.

Pacemaker implantation - A pacemaker is a small, battery-powered device that's surgically implanted in the chest or abdomen to regulate a slow or irregular heartbeat. It's used to treat conditions like bradycardia, sick sinus syndrome, and heart block. How it works A pacemaker sends electrical impulses to the heart through wires called pacing leads. The rate at which the impulses are sent is called the pacing rate. Most pacemakers can adjust the pacing rate based on your body's needs. For example, they can speed up when you're active. Pacemakers can also help the chambers of your heart beat stronger and at the same time. (Note: This procedure can be done in hospital setting only)

Coronary angioplasty is a procedure that uses a balloon to open blocked or narrowed coronary arteries. It's a minimally invasive procedure that improves blood flow to the heart. What it's used for ? · Coronary angioplasty is used to treat coronary artery disease (CAD), which is caused by a buildup of plaque in the coronary arteries. · It can be performed as an emergency procedure during a heart attack. · It can also be performed as an elective procedure if a healthcare provider suspects heart disease. How it's performed? · A catheter with a balloon at its tip is inserted into a blood vessel. · The catheter is guided to the blocked coronary artery. · The balloon is inflated to press the plaque against the artery walls. · A stent may be inserted into the artery to keep it open. (Note: This procedure can be done in hospital setting only)

A coronary angiogram is a procedure that uses X-rays and a special dye to see if the heart's arteries are blocked or narrowed. It's also known as a cardiac catheterization. It's used to diagnose angina or heart failure symptoms, to investigate heart attacks, and to look for abnormalities in the heart's blood vessels. It's performed by inserting a catheter (tiny tube) into an artery in the arm. A special dye is injected through the catheter and X-ray images are taken to see how the dye moves through the blood vessels in the heart. The procedure is fairly painless and takes about 10 minutes on the average to complete. It shows if the heart's arteries are blocked or narrowed, where and how much the heart's arteries are blocked or narrowed. Based on the angiogram findings we can arrive at a best treatment option for the narrowed or blocked arteries. (Note: This test can be done in hospital setting only)

Point of care blood test to monitor heart failure progression and recovery to help doctor optimize the medication in a better way.

A Holter test, or Holter monitor, is a continuous portable electrocardiogram (ECG) that records the heart's electrical activity over 24 to 48 hours. Patients wear the device while engaging in daily activities to capture heart rhythms during normal conditions. It helps in detecting arrhythmias, intermittent ischemia, and other heart conditions that may not be evident during a standard ECG. The recorded data is analyzed to provide insights into heart health and is an essential tool in cardiac diagnostics.
