What is Interventional Cardiology?
The branch of cardiology that deals
with treatment based on catheter (thin tube) is called Interventional Cardiology. This is performed by placing a thin tube into the heart
or arteries that feed the heart itself. This method is used to
diagnose and treat congenital heart defects. Once the catheter is in
the desired position on the affected part, it can be used to take
diagnostic pictures of heart and blood vessels.
Like conventional procedures
interventional methods also follow a common practice like giving
anaesthesia. This procedure commonly start with
percutaneous femoral approach. Angiograms and haemodymic measurements
will depict the lesion severity.
By using the endoscopic cameras and
other specially designed instruments, several structural defects of
the heart can be treated with small incisions in the chest. The
outcome of this less traumatic technique in cardialogy is less pain,
fast recovery, less scar and increased cosmetic result for the
patient.
