Services
The Clinical cardiology unit offers highly experienced cardiologists who are the reference point and coordinators between all the other professionals. They will attend to your requirements either in the outpatient clinic or on the hospital ward, where they will explain your problem and indicate the treatment required or arrange a consultation with another specialist if necessary, therefore ensuring exactly what the patient needs: high quality care.
The tests most frequently used by our specialists to reach a firm diagnosis of cardiovascular disease are as follows:
- Electrocardiogram
- ECG holter
- Blood pressure holter
- Stress test
- Colour doppler echocardiogram
- E3-d colour doppler echocardiogram
- Pharmacological stress echocardiogram
- Stress echocardiogram
- Echocardiogram with contrast
- Transesophageal echocardiogram
Recently new alternatives to the traditional diagnostic imaging have been developed to include high resolution techniques such as:
- Cardiac MRI
- CT scan with coronary angiogram programme
- Cardiac gammagraphy and cardiac SPECT
Thanks to all this, IMED Hospitals can offer patients the most advanced diagnosis methods available to professionals.
This unit allows the performance of coronary studies for the early diagnosis and revascularization treatment of patients suffering from angina pectoris or acuta myocardial infarction. This service is permanently available for emergencies. The most frequent diagnosis and treatment techniques used are:
- Diagnostic coronary angiogram
- Hemodynamic studies
- Coronary angioplasty and stenting
Sometimes the heart has difficulty regulating the heart beat. This type of alteration is very frequent and has given rise to create a team of professionals who study, identify the cause and either cure or arrange a treatment plan if necessary. The arrhythmia unit carries out the following procedures:
- Electrophysiological studies
- Pacemaker implantation
- ICD (implantable cardioverter-defibrillator)
- Radiofrequency ablation
The cardiac surgery department of IMED Hospitals is made up of a team of multidisciplinary professionals including cardiac surgeons, perfusion technicians, anesthetists and theatre staff, lead by the prestigious heart surgeon Dr. Daniel Luna. This team evaluates and collaborates closely with cardiologists and intensive care department to ensure the highest guarantee during the surgical procedure and also the post operative period.
Certain heart diseases are hereditary. This unit allows the study and diagnosis of the patient and the family predisposition to suffer any alterations such as cardiomyopathy, certain arrhythmias or cot death (S.I.D.S). This unit not only reaches the diagnosis but also analyzes the DNA to establish if the condition has been inherited or if the patient is a carrier.
