Congenital heart surgery
It is a corrective surgery that is done to fix or treat a genetic heart defect present since birth. A condition like this causes a change in the normal flow of blood to the heart thus leading to complications.

Heart transplant
When the heart fails to pump enough oxygenated blood to meet the needs of the body’s organs, a heart transplant is needed. While it may be a major operation & involve elaborate pre & post surgery procedures, our team of expert cardiac surgeons follows an integrated approach based on specialized procedure & advanced technology for an effective outcome.

To provide long term relief from the problem and aiding the patient to lead a normal life, we use advanced catheter based intervention or conventional forms of surgeries (depending on the severity of the condition).

The term cardiovascular disease covers both heart and blood vessel disorders. To prevent these diseases, you must understand the risk factors and act upon managing them.
These include:
- Tobacco use
- High BP and cholesterol
- Diabetes
- Obesity
- Lack of physical activity
It is crucial to practice a healthy lifestyle with a nutritious diet and adequate sleep. Quit tobacco on your own or with the support of a physician. Get screened periodically for cardiovascular risk factors, such as diabetes and hypertension. Along with that, cut cholesterol- trim the oil and fat from your diet, and maintain a healthy weight. Prevention at an initial stage is far better than waiting for the warning signs of heart disease that happen after damage already has been done.
No matter what your age, you should consult a cardiologist if you are concerned about heart disease or have a family history. Discuss with your doctor about any family history of high cholesterol,enlarged heart or congestive heart failure. Keep in mind, the earliest symptoms of heart disease may not be chest pain. They may be fatigue or shortness of breath.
Your doctor should evaluate your family history and lifestyle. Following that, you will receive a guideline for improving your diet and making exercise a regular part of your life. If your cholesterol levels are high, your physician may recommend medications to help lower cholesterol and decrease your risk of a first heart attack. In addition, some people may benefit from an instant CT scan, which is helpful in assessing people at higher risk who require a more aggressive approach to prevention.
