Almana Hospital's Interventional Cardiology Department

At Almana Hospital, we understand the importance of a healthy heart. Our Interventional Cardiology department is equipped with the latest technology and staffed by highly skilled and experienced interventional cardiologists dedicated to providing minimally invasive surgical procedures for a wide range of heart conditions.

 

What is Interventional Cardiology?

Interventional cardiology is a subspecialty of cardiology that utilizes minimally invasive catheter-based procedures to diagnose and treat heart disease. This often allows for faster recovery times and less scarring compared to traditional open-heart surgery.

Our Expertise in Interventional Cardiology:

Our interventional cardiologists are highly trained in performing a variety of procedures, including:

  • Coronary Angiography and Stenting: This procedure involves inserting a thin tube (catheter) into an artery to visualize blockages and insert stents to improve blood flow to the heart muscle.
  • Balloon Angioplasty: A tiny balloon is used to open narrowed arteries in the heart.
  • Peripheral Vascular Intervention (PVI): Procedures to treat narrowed or blocked arteries outside the heart, improving blood flow to the legs and feet.
  • Pacemaker and Defibrillator Implantation: These devices regulate the heart rhythm for patients with arrhythmias (irregular heartbeats).
  • Valvuloplasty: Minimally invasive procedures to repair malfunctioning heart valves.
  • Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR): A newer procedure to replace a narrowed aortic valve without open-heart surgery (depending on the patient's condition).
