Cardiac Catheterization
At Egyptair Hospital, our Cardiac Catheterization Unit is dedicated to the diagnosis and treatment of various heart conditions. We offer state-of-the-art procedures and a team of experienced cardiologists and medical staff to ensure the best care for your heart health.
Our Services Include:
1. Diagnostic Cardiac Catheterization
• We perform diagnostic cardiac catheterizations to assess the condition of your coronary arteries and heart valves. This procedure helps us identify blockages, narrowing, or other cardiac issues.
2. Coronary Angioplasty and Stenting
• In cases where blockages or narrowing are identified, we offer coronary angioplasty to widen the arteries and placement of stents to keep them open. This can help improve blood flow to the heart.
3. Cardiac Electrophysiology Studies
• We conduct electrophysiology studies to assess the hearts electrical system. This helps in diagnosing and treating irregular heart rhythms or arrhythmias.
4. Pacemaker and Defibrillator Implantation
• Our expert team specializes in the implantation of pacemakers and defibrillators, devices that help regulate heart rhythms and prevent sudden cardiac arrest.
5. Intravascular Ultrasound (IVUS)
• We use intravascular ultrasound to obtain detailed images of the coronary arteries. This advanced technology aids in precise diagnosis and treatment planning.
6. Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) Measurement
• FFR measurement helps us assess the severity of coronary artery blockages, guiding treatment decisions.
7. Peripheral Vascular Interventions
• Our services extend beyond the coronary arteries to include interventions in the peripheral vascular system, addressing conditions such as peripheral artery disease (PAD).
8. Patient-Centered Care
• We prioritize your comfort and well-being throughout your cardiac catheterization experience. Our team is here to answer your questions and provide personalized care.
