Specialties
Procedure that examines the functioning of the heart with the use of tubes or catheters designed to work inside the cardiovascular system.
This procedure is performed in a CathLab and allows to get a pressure record of the cardiac cavities and main blood vessels, identify coronary obstructions and treat them through the use of stents or endoprostheses.
Minimally invasive procedure that consits of unblocking the narrowing coronary arteries through the use of small balloons and stents to restore blood flow to tissue at risk of infarction.
The benefits of coronary angioplasty are to increase blood flow through the narrowing artery, decrease chest pain (angia), increase in physical capacity limited by symptoms and decrease mortality.
It is an area of interventional cardiology that uses catheters, balloons and dedicated metallic devices for the treatment of conditions that affect the structure of the heart.
These include the closure of congenital or acquired defects of the atrial or ventricular septum, the closure of the atrial appendage in patients at risk of cardiac embolism, reduction in size of the interventricular septum in patients with hypertrophy cardiomyopathy, repair of the mitral valve (Mitraclip) and replacement of the aortic valve through catheter (TAVI).
