At Dudi Hospital, our team of experienced cardiologists specializes in providing comprehensive care for heart and cardiovascular conditions. From early diagnosis to the treatment of complex heart diseases, we are committed to helping our patients achieve and maintain optimal heart health through cutting-edge treatments, personalized care, and a compassionate approach.
CAD is the narrowing or blockage of coronary arteries, often caused by atherosclerosis (plaque buildup). This condition reduces blood flow to the heart and can lead to angina (chest pain), heart attacks, and heart failure.
Treatment: Lifestyle changes, medications, and, in severe cases, interventional procedures like angioplasty and stent placement are used to restore blood flow to the heart.
Hypertension, commonly known as high blood pressure, increases the risk of heart attack, stroke, and other heart conditions. It occurs when the force of blood against artery walls is consistently too high.
Treatment: Includes medications to lower blood pressure, along with recommendations for lifestyle modifications such as diet, exercise, and stress reduction.
Heart failure, or congestive heart failure (CHF), occurs when the heart cannot pump blood efficiently to meet the body's needs. It may result from coronary artery disease, high blood pressure, or other heart conditions.
Treatment: A combination of medications, lifestyle changes, and potentially surgical interventions such as implantable devices (e.g., pacemakers) may be required to manage symptoms and improve quality of life.
Arrhythmias are abnormal heart rhythms caused by electrical signal malfunctions in the heart. These include atrial fibrillation, tachycardia, and bradycardia.
Treatment: Treatment depends on the type of arrhythmia and may include medications, electrical cardioversion (to reset the heart's rhythm), or procedures like pacemaker insertion or catheter ablation.
Valvular heart disease affects the valves that regulate blood flow in the heart, such as aortic stenosis or mitral valve prolapse, leading to poor circulation and strain on the heart.
Treatment: Options include medications to manage symptoms and surgical procedures like valve repair or valve replacement for severe cases.
Cardiomyopathy refers to diseases of the heart muscle, where the muscle becomes enlarged, thickened, or rigid. It can lead to heart failure or arrhythmias if untreated.
Treatment: Medications to manage heart function, lifestyle changes, and in some cases, surgical options like implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) or heart transplants may be necessary.
An ECG records the electrical activity of the heart to detect arrhythmias, heart attacks, and other heart conditions. It's a simple, non-invasive test that provides valuable information about your heart’s health.
A stress test evaluates how the heart performs under physical stress. Patients either exercise or take medications that increase the heart rate while their heart’s function is monitored through ECG and other measurements.
This ultrasound imaging technique provides detailed pictures of the heart’s structure and function. It helps assess heart valves, chamber sizes, and overall heart performance.
Angiography uses X-ray imaging with a contrast dye to view the coronary arteries and detect blockages or narrowing that may lead to coronary artery disease or heart attacks.
At Dudi Gupta, we believe that prevention is the best cure when it comes to heart health. Our team provides individualized preventive care programs designed to reduce the risk of heart disease and promote long-term cardiovascular wellness. Here are some key preventive measures
Focus on heart-friendly foods such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats (like those found in fish, nuts, and olive oil). Avoid excessive salt, sugar, and unhealthy fats.
Engaging in at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise per week can significantly lower your risk of heart disease.
Quitting smoking is one of the most effective ways to improve heart health and reduce the risk of heart attacks.
Chronic stress can take a toll on your heart. Techniques like mindfulness, meditation, and yoga can help lower stress and improve overall heart health.
Regular monitoring of blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and other heart health markers can detect issues early, ensuring timely treatment.s
