Treatments

Angioplasty

Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) - often abbreviated to angioplasty - is a procedure to re-open a narrowed heart artery by inflating a tiny balloon in the narrowed segments.

An aneurysm is a thickening or bulge in the wall of an artery. If you have been diagnosed with an aneurysm your consultant may recommend an aortic stent graft (also known as endovascular aneurysm repair or EVAR).

Aortofemoral bypass

An aortofemoral bypass is a procedure to insert artificial tubes (grafts) above blocked iliac arteries and connect the ends of the graft to your femoral arteries.

Assessment of all Aspects of Cardiology

Cardiac clinical pharmacology

Cardiac clinical pharmacology involves the prescribing and monitoring of drugs used to treat a variety of cardiac conditions.

Cardiac rehabilitation

Following a heart attack or after some surgical procedures your consultant may recommend cardiac rehabilitation.

Cardioversion

Cardioversion is procedure that can be used to correct an irregular heartbeat.

Carotid endarterectomy

Sometimes plaque begins to build up on the walls of the arteries supplying blood and oxygen to the head and neck.

Carotid surgery

Coronary Angioplasty (Percutaneous Coronary Intervention or PCI)

Coronary angioplasty (or PCI) is a procedure to re-open a narrowed heart artery by inflating a tiny balloon in the narrowed segments.

Endovascular Aneurysm Repair (EVAR)

If you have been diagnosed with an aneurysm your consultant may recommend an endovascular aneurysm repair or EVAR.

Mitral valve balloon dilation

During mitral valve balloon dilation a balloon is used to widen the valve opening.

Peripheral nerve surgery

Unlike your central nervous system, your peripheral nervous system is not protected by bone leaving it exposed to injury or toxins (poisons).
