Efforts of Cardiology
Our hospital has an emergency medical care center, and we mainly provide medical care for acute heart diseases such as acute myocardial infarction, unstable angina, and acute heart failure.Revascularization treatment such as coronary intervention can be performed in an emergency at any time.In addition, we provide medical care in close cooperation with cardiovascular surgery, and have a system in place to promptly perform cardiovascular surgery if necessary.
As for arrhythmia treatment, we are actively working on pacemaker implantation, catheter ablation, implantable cardioverter-defibrillator implantation, and cardiac resynchronization therapy.
We would like to work with local registered doctors to protect the lives of patients and provide them with a comfortable daily life.Once the patient has overcome the acute phase and entered the stable phase, we will continue to cooperate with the registered doctors and proceed with subsequent medical treatment while having regular examinations at our hospital.
A word to patients
The prognosis of acute myocardial infarction and unstable angina depends on how early treatment is received at the hospital after the onset.About half of patients with acute myocardial infarction die in the acute phase, and about 6% of those who die are said to die within an hour of onset before being admitted to a hospital.On the other hand, more than 1% of patients admitted to hospital can be saved.Therefore, it is very important to receive treatment at the hospital as soon as possible.If you suddenly feel tightness in your chest and it persists (you may feel pain in your back, shoulders, or arms, or the subjective symptoms may not be that strong), you may have acute myocardial infarction, so be sure to Don't wait and see what happens, call an ambulance and go to the hospital as soon as possible.About half of those who develop acute myocardial infarction have a sudden onset and are relatively healthy without any subjective symptoms before the onset.The remaining half of the patients had the experience of feeling a little chest pain a few days ago and recovering after a while.This condition is unstable angina.If you go to the hospital at this stage, you can almost save your life.Self-judgment is prohibited. If you have any subjective symptoms that you are concerned about, please see a doctor who specializes in cardiology as soon as possible.

Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI)
TAVI treatment has reached 500 cases!
TAVI is a treatment method for valvular disease called aortic stenosis, in which a new valve (artificial valve) is placed in the patient's heart using a catheter instead of open heart surgery.
Since this treatment puts less strain on the body, even elderly patients who have been unable to undergo surgery in the past, and those with complications such as cerebral blood vessels and respiratory organs, can receive treatment. Now possible.
