The field of medicine known as cardiology is dedicated to the identification, management, and avoidance of disorders and ailments affecting the heart. An essential organ, the heart circulates blood throughout the body to provide tissues with nutrition and oxygen. Heart failure, arrhythmias, hypertension, and coronary artery disease are among the conditions that cardiologists specialize in treating. Early identification and successful treatment of cardiovascular diseases have greatly enhanced patient outcomes thanks to developments in medical technology.
In cardiology, electrocardiograms (ECG), echocardiograms, stress tests, and cardiac catheterization are common diagnostic techniques. Treatments include everything from medication and lifestyle changes to more sophisticated procedures like stent placement, angioplasty, and heart surgeries like bypass operations. By encouraging a healthy diet, consistent exercise, stress reduction, and the control of risk factors like diabetes and high cholesterol, preventative cardiology also plays a critical role in preserving heart health.
Since heart disease is still one of the main causes of death globally, cardiology is an important area of study in contemporary medicine. Cardiac care has been transformed by ongoing research and advancements, including robotic-assisted surgeries, artificial heart valves, and minimally invasive procedures. People can greatly lower their risk of heart disease and live healthier lives with the right medical advice and lifestyle modifications.
Dr. Bishav Mohan is the Chief Cardiologist cum Coordinator at the Hero DMC Heart Institute. His research is focused on implantation of public health issues. He is a pioneering cardiologist whose groundbreaking contributions, including the introduction of ECMO for aluminum phosphide poisoning, and mechanical breakdown and lysis for high-risk pulmonary embolism patients in India, have transformed patient care. With over 20,000 cath lab procedures and 180 research presentations to his name, he was honoured with the Cardiolog... Read More
