Understanding Heart Diseases and the Need for Surgery

Heart diseases, also known as cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), encompass a range of conditions affecting the heart and blood vessels. Among these, coronary artery disease, heart arrhythmias, and congenital heart defects are prevalent, often necessitating surgical intervention. The major causes of heart diseases include high blood pressure, high cholesterol, smoking, diabetes, obesity, and physical inactivity. Due to lifestyle shifts and genetic predispositions, Punjab has seen a noticeable rise in CVD cases.

Symptoms can vary depending on the specific condition, but common signs include chest pain, shortness of breath, palpitations, and fatigue. When these symptoms become severe or life-threatening, surgeries such as coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), valve surgeries, or minimally invasive procedures may be needed.

Comprehensive Heart Surgery Options at Livasa Amritsar

At Livasa Amritsar, we provide a full spectrum of heart surgery options tailored to meet the needs of our patients. Our comprehensive services ensure that both traditional and advanced methods are explored to deliver optimal outcomes. Here's a closer look at some of the key procedures:

• Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG): The standard procedure to circumvent blocked coronary arteries, restoring blood flow to the heart muscle.
• Valve Replacement and Repair: Surgical interventions to replace or repair malfunctioning heart valves, using either mechanical or biological options.
• Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery (MICS): This innovative approach involves smaller incisions, leading to less recovery time and reduced pain.
• Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI): A non-surgical procedure to open narrowed arteries, often with the aid of stents.
