  Cardiology Services at Rajagiri Hospital 

  Rajagiri Hospital offers a comprehensive range of cardiology services in Kochi, covering diagnostic procedures, minimally invasive cardiac interventions and advanced cardiovascular treatments.

  1. Coronary Artery Disease Diagnosis and Treatment

  Coronary artery disease occurs when the blood vessels supplying the heart become narrowed or blocked, reducing blood flow to the heart muscle. Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment are important to reduce the risk of serious complications.

  Our coronary intervention services include:

  • Coronary angiogram

  • Coronary angioplasty and stent implantation

  • Primary angioplasty for acute myocardial infarction

  • Intravascular Ultrasound (IVUS)

  • Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR)

  • Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)

  • Rotational atherectomy (Rota ablation)

  • Intravascular Lithotripsy (IVL)

  These procedures help cardiologists evaluate coronary artery disease and select appropriate treatment options based on individual patient needs.

  2. Advance Angioplasty Treatment in Kochi 

  Angioplasty is a minimally invasive procedure used to improve blood flow through narrowed or blocked arteries. Depending on the location and characteristics of the blockage, cardiologists may recommend different techniques.

  Rajagiri Hospital provides coronary and peripheral angioplasty services, including advanced interventional techniques.

  Our services include:

  • Coronary angioplasty and stenting

  • Peripheral angioplasty

  • Primary angioplasty for heart attacks

  • Laser angioplasty

  • Rotational atherectomy

  • Intravascular Lithotripsy (IVL)

  The treatment approach is determined by the cardiologist after evaluating the patient's condition and diagnostic findings.

  3. Structural Heart Disease Treatment

  Structural heart diseases involve abnormalities in the heart's valves, chambers or other structural components. Some conditions can be managed through minimally invasive catheter-based procedures, depending on the patient's clinical condition.

  The Rajagiri Cardiac Centre offers structural heart interventions, including:

  • Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI)

  • Transcatheter Mitral Valve Replacement (TMVR)

  • Balloon valvuloplasty

  • Bicaval valve procedures

  • Adult congenital heart interventions

  • Device closure procedures

  • Aortic stenting

  These procedures are considered following detailed cardiac assessment and evaluation by the treating specialists.

  4. Cardiac Rhythm Management and Electrophysiology

  Heart rhythm disorders, also known as arrhythmias, occur when the heart beats too slowly, too quickly or irregularly. Electrophysiology procedures help identify abnormal electrical activity in the heart and guide treatment.

  Our cardiac rhythm management services include:

  • Electrophysiology studies

  • Radiofrequency (RF) ablation

  • Permanent pacemaker implantation

  • Leadless pacemaker implantation

  • Conduction system pacing

  • Cardiac Resynchronisation Therapy (CRT)

  • Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD/AICD)

  • CRT-D implantation

  • Implantable Loop Recorder (ILR)

  Treatment is selected according to the type of rhythm disorder, symptoms and overall cardiac health.

  5. Peripheral Vascular and Endovascular Interventions

  Cardiovascular conditions can also affect blood vessels outside the heart. Narrowing or blockage of these vessels may reduce blood circulation to different parts of the body.

  Rajagiri Hospital provides a range of peripheral vascular and endovascular interventions, including:

  • Peripheral angiograms

  • Peripheral angioplasty

  • Carotid angioplasty

  • Endovascular treatment of peripheral vascular diseases

  • Endovascular stenting for aortic aneurysms

  • Renal artery stenting

  • Coil embolisation

  • Venous interventions, including IVC filter placement

  These procedures help evaluate and manage selected vascular conditions using minimally invasive techniques.

  6. Congenital Heart Disease Interventions

  Congenital heart diseases are structural heart conditions present from birth. Some defects may require monitoring, while others may need catheter-based or surgical intervention.

  The Rajagiri Cardiac Centre provides adult congenital heart interventions, including:

  • Device closure procedures

  • Aortic stenting

  • Selected catheter-based congenital heart interventions

  The appropriate treatment depends on the type of congenital heart condition, its severity and the patient's overall health.

  Cardiac Diagnostic and Interventional Procedures

  Accurate diagnosis plays an important role in selecting appropriate cardiac treatment. Rajagiri Hospital provides a range of diagnostic and interventional procedures to evaluate heart function, blood flow and cardiovascular conditions.

  The available procedures include:

  • Coronary angiography

  • Peripheral angiography

  • Right heart catheterisation

  • Left heart catheterisation

  • Intravascular Ultrasound (IVUS)

  • Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR)

  • Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)

  • Endomyocardial biopsy

  • Electrophysiology studies

  • Implantable Loop Recorder

  The treating cardiologist recommends appropriate investigations based on the patient's symptoms, medical history and clinical findings.

  Heart Conditions Managed at Rajagiri Hospital

  The cardiology team evaluates and manages a range of cardiovascular conditions, including:

  • Coronary artery disease

  • Narrowing or blockage of coronary arteries

  • Acute myocardial infarction (heart attack)

  • Heart valve disorders

  • Structural heart diseases

  • Heart rhythm disorders

  • Adult congenital heart conditions

  • Peripheral arterial diseases

  • Aortic aneurysms

  • Selected vascular conditions

  Early medical evaluation can help identify cardiovascular problems and determine the appropriate treatment pathway.

  When Should You Consult a Cardiologist?

  Consulting a cardiologist is important when you experience symptoms that may indicate a heart-related problem or have risk factors requiring medical evaluation.

  Symptoms that may require cardiac assessment include:

  • Chest discomfort or chest pain

  • Breathlessness during physical activity or at rest

  • Unexplained dizziness or fainting

  • Palpitations or an irregular heartbeat

  • Unusual fatigue associated with other cardiac symptoms

  • Swelling in the legs along with other symptoms of heart disease

  Severe or sudden chest pain, significant breathlessness or fainting requires immediate emergency medical attention. Do not delay emergency care to arrange a routine appointment.
