Cardiology

The heart is the vital organ within the human body, continuously pumping blood and oxygen to each part of your system. Its rhythm keeps one alive and active; whenever it falters, the whole body suffers. Heart disease is among the leading causes of death worldwide, and in India, this trend is fast increasing. Therefore, it is very essential to keep the heart in healthy condition by taking regular checkups, changing the lifestyle, and, if necessary, receiving proper medical attention.

Gleneagles Hospital is a top Cardiac Hospital in Chennai. We take pride in the thing that we use cutting-edge technology, treatment, and proper care for healthy hearts. Along with highly skilled cardiologists, we use innovative technology and methods to diagnose and treat heart and other diseases or conditions.

Conditions Treated

At Gleneagles Hospitals, we treat the entire spectrum of heart conditions, including:

  • Aortic Valve Disease: It is a disease where the aortic valve does not open or close normally, and thereby, it will interfere with blood flow from the heart. Symptoms can be chest pain, shortness of breath, and fatigue.
  • Arrhythmia: Abnormal electrical signals within the heart causing irregular heartbeats. It manifests with symptoms of dizziness, palpitations, and fatigue.
  • Bradycardia: A heart rate that is slower than normal, which can cause dizziness, fainting, and fatigue because of the decreased blood flow.
  • Coronary Artery Disease: In this disease, the coronary arteries, often referred to as the blood vessels of the heart, narrow or get blocked and thus decrease blood flow toward the heart, leading to chest pain or heart attacks.
  • Heart Arrhythmia: This condition leads to an irregular heartbeat of a patient, sometimes even causing dizziness, but severe conditions can lead to stroke or heart failure.
  • Heart palpitations: it is the Sensations of irregular or rapid heartbeats. It is commonly caused by stress or other medical conditions, like arrhythmias or heart valve issues.
  • Heart Valve Disease: It is a Disease in which the valves of the heart lead to improper blood flow, causing shortness of breath and fatigue.
  • Long QT syndrome: A genetic condition that encodes long intervals between the electrical system of the heart, resulting in abnormal rhythms and increasing the risk of sudden cardiac death.
