About the Department
The hospital today has the capability for two cath labs but is
commissioning one. To our credit we were the FIRST in INDIA to
procure the Philips Integris Allura Flat Panel Detector. This will
forge the future of cardiovascular and other imaging. Such
equipment is available in a few centers in the country.
This machine has the capability of not only doing cardiac work but
other invasive vascular work as well, such as, tackling brain
aneurysm or stopping bleeding by mechanically blocking the open
blood vessel.
This single area is spread over 850 square feet ! Arguably this
would be the largest lab in the country. The lab has the
capability of transferring and beaming images anywhere in the
world, in real time mode.
The hospital has a panel of "icon" doctors supporting the cardiac
initiative. The hospital has a dedicated team of two well trained
cardiologists full time in the hospital. They tackle all cardiac
emergencies and also perform Primary Angioplasties in indicated
cases.
