The Department of Cardiology at Holy Family Hospital is renowned for its excellence in consultative, diagnostic, interventional, and preventive cardiology. The department is dedicated to providing comprehensive cardiovascular care with a focus on early diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of heart diseases. With an expert team of cardiologists and state-of-the-art technology, we are committed to offering personalized care to improve heart health and effective treatment plans to enhance the quality of life for our patients.

Established as a center of excellence, our department utilizes the most advanced diagnostic and interventional techniques to ensure optimal outcomes. As a comprehensive medical hub, we coordinate care seamlessly, addressing the needs of patients with multiple conditions in one convenient location.

Holy Family Hospital’s Cardiology Department offers a broad range of services, from consultations to advanced interventional procedures. Our focus is on patient-centered, compassionate care, supported by the latest medical advancements.

• Consultative Cardiology: Inpatient and outpatient consultations for a wide variety of heart conditions, including high blood pressure, heart failure, and coronary artery disease.
• Non-Interventional Diagnostic Services: We provide detailed cardiovascular evaluations, including ECG, echocardiography, stress tests, Holter monitoring, and pacemaker assessments, and other cardiac device assessments.
• Interventional Diagnostic Services: Our interventional services include minimally invasive procedures like coronary angiography, balloon angioplasty, and stent placement to restore proper blood flow in the heart’s arteries.
• Preventative Cardiology: Focus on reducing heart disease risk and promoting heart health through lifestyle management, dietary counseling, and medical therapy for long-term heart health.
• Cardiac Electrophysiology Services: Comprehensive management of heart rhythm disorders, offering procedures like pacemaker implantation, radiofrequency ablation for arrhythmias, and implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs).
• Heart Failure Management: Specialized care for patients with chronic heart conditions, including medication management, lifestyle counseling, and advanced therapies.

Holy Family Hospital's cardiology team performs a wide range of advanced procedures to ensure the best outcomes for our patients

• Coronary Angioplasty – A minimally invasive procedure where a balloon is inflated inside a narrowed coronary artery to restore blood flow. A stent is often placed to keep the artery open and prevent re-narrowing. It is commonly used to treat coronary artery disease (CAD).

• Coronary Rotablation – A technique used to remove hardened, calcified plaque from coronary arteries using a high-speed rotating burr. This improves blood flow and facilitates stent placement. It is typically performed when conventional angioplasty is ineffective due to severe calcification.

• Intravascular Ultrasound (IVUS) – A catheter-based imaging technique that provides real-time, high-resolution images of blood vessels from within. It helps assess plaque buildup, artery size, and stent placement accuracy. IVUS improves precision in coronary interventions and reduces complications.

• EPS + RFA (Electrophysiology Study + Radiofrequency Ablation) – EPS maps electrical activity in the heart to identify abnormal rhythm sources. RFA then uses targeted heat energy to destroy problematic tissue causing arrhythmias. It is commonly used for conditions like atrial fibrillation or supraventricular tachycardia.

• Pacemaker Implantation – A procedure to place a small electronic device in the chest, which sends electrical signals to regulate slow or irregular heartbeats. Leads are positioned inside the heart to detect and correct rhythm disturbances. It is used to treat bradycardia and heart block.

• Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) – A specialized pacemaker therapy used for heart failure patients with ventricular dyssynchrony. It sends electrical impulses to coordinate heart contractions and improve pumping efficiency. CRT can significantly enhance symptoms and reduce heart failure-related hospitalizations.

• Renal Denervation – A catheter-based procedure that uses radiofrequency or ultrasound energy to disrupt nerves in the renal arteries. It helps lower blood pressure in patients with treatment-resistant hypertension. By reducing sympathetic nerve activity, it offers a long-term antihypertensive effect.

• TAVI (Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation) – A minimally invasive procedure to replace a diseased aortic valve without open-heart surgery. A new valve is delivered via a catheter through the femoral artery and deployed inside the old valve. It is an effective option for high-risk surgical patients.

• ECMO (Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation) – A life-support technique used in severe heart or lung failure cases. It involves pumping blood outside the body for oxygenation and removal of carbon dioxide. ECMO provides temporary support while the heart and lungs recover or until a transplant is available.

• ASD Device Closure – A non-surgical procedure to close an atrial septal defect (ASD), a hole between the heart’s upper chambers. A catheter delivers a special closure device that seals the defect. It prevents abnormal blood flow and reduces the risk of complications like stroke or heart failure.

• Mechanical Thrombectomy for Pulmonary Embolism – A minimally invasive procedure to remove large blood clots from the pulmonary arteries. A catheter-based device captures and extracts the clot, restoring normal blood flow. It is used in life-threatening cases to rapidly relieve pressure on the heart and lungs.
