Cardiology look after:
Ischemic heart disease where the blood supply to the heart is poor. Patients get angina, shortness of breath, swollen ankles etc.
Heart failure – when the heart does not work properly. People may get tired, short of breath, swollen ankles etc
Valvular heart disease – the valves in the heart have an opening that is too small or the valves leak.
Hypertension – high blood pressure (Increased BP).
Cardiac rhythm abnormalities – the heart beats too fast or too slow or irregularly.
Congenital heart problems – when someone is born with heart problems.
Vascular problems – the blood vessels in the body can become narrow or blocked. This often causes pain. Cardiology can open some of these blocks and so make the blood supply better.
What are the tests performed in Cardiology?
Non-invasive investigations(tests that do not need needles or operations) include:
An electrocardiogram (ECG) records the electrical patterns of the heart.
Echocardiography (Echo), an ultrasound scan of the heart.
Stress testing, TMT.
Holter test. This records the ECG while the person is walking around for one day i.e., 24hrs.
Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring - records the BP while the person is walking around for one day.
Head Up Tilt Test (HUTT) – to evaluate causes of fainting
Invasive Cardiology
There are two modern cardiac catheterization laboratories. In the cardiac catheterisation laboratories, often just called the cath labs they do invasive tests and invasive procedures.
Invasive tests involve putting needles, wires or tubes into the body.
Cardiac catheterization - the study of the heart by putting a tiny tube into the heart. Then the doctor injects a “dye” that shows the inside of the heart.
Coronary angiogram – injecting a “dye” to show the arteries of the heart.
Electrophysiological procedures – measuring and treating abnormal electrical activity in the heart.
Invasive Procedures
Coronary angioplasty. This is a treatment where special contrast is put into the heart to show the arteries on an Xray. The doctor widens any narrow arteries. This enlarges narrow areas or removes blocks. The blood can then flow faster.
Peripheral vessel angioplasty – looking at the arteries far away from the heart (peripheral). Then opening up any narrowed or blocked arteries (angioplasty).
Balloon valvuloplasty – opening up narrow heart valves – mitral, aortic, pulmonary and tricuspid valves.
Alcohol septal ablation.
Defect closures – abnormal holes in the heart can be closed. This includes Atrial Septal Defect (ASD); Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD) and a Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA).
Radiofrequency ablation – using a special radio machine to remove abnormal areas, which produce abnormal rhythm of the heart.
Pacemaker implantation - putting in an electrical machine to help the heart beat at the right speed. Temporary ones are just for a short time and are then taken out. Permanent ones stay in the patient and the patient goes home with it.
Intra-aortic balloon pump – used to treat some heart problems.

it is better to take your father to CMC itself
They would have known the past problems of your father
So they may treat correctly
It is always better to take opinion from one doctor.

An angiography is done to my father at Medica Superspeciality Hospital at calcutta. Doctor is saying that there is blockage in the heart. He is recommending ANGIOPLASTY as my father's health is not in good condition and he is very weak, so doctor is not recommending BY PASS SURGERY.
