24×7 State of art Cathlab
About 24×7 State of art Cathlab
The Cath Lab is a specialised cardiac diagnostic and interventional facility used for procedures such as angiography, angioplasty, and stent placement. It enables minimally invasive treatment of heart vessel blockages without open surgery.
The unit operates 24×7 to manage emergency heart attacks and planned cardiac interventions with advanced imaging technology.
Overview
High-resolution fluoroscopic imaging allows cardiologists to visualise coronary arteries in real time and detect blockages accurately.
Rapid intervention during cardiac emergencies significantly improves survival and reduces long-term heart damage.
Workflow
Step 1: Pre-Procedure Assessment
Patient evaluation, blood tests, consent, and vital monitoring are completed before the procedure.
Step 2: Catheter Insertion
A thin catheter is inserted through the wrist or groin artery under local anesthesia.
Step 3: Contrast Imaging
Special dye is injected to visualise coronary arteries on live imaging.
Step 4: Cardiac Intervention
If blockage is detected, balloon angioplasty or stent placement is performed.
Step 5: Post-Procedure Monitoring
Patient is monitored for a few hours before discharge or ICU transfer if required.
