Hyderabad 10th April, 2010. The successful management of cardiac emergencies in Kamineni Hospitals LB Nagar is a result of experienced clinical talent, world class infrastructure and efficient nursing care. More importantly, the excellent coordination between the cardiology and cardiac surgical teams has made Kamineni Hospitals the destination for Heart care in Hyderabad.
Heart attack is a result of sudden blockage of one or more blood vessels of the heart leading to serious life threatening complications, which include-rupture of a heart valve, hole in the heart and rupture of left heart cavity.
“Hole” in the heart is usually by birth, but in some situations it can occur in adults during heart attack. Generally it occurs in 48 to 72 hours of heart attack. This condition has very high mortality rate and more than 50% of patients die within 48 hours and more than 90% die within 30 days. Emergency surgical repair is the only hope for survival in this kind of patients and excellent coordination between Cardiologist and Cardiac Surgeon is very much essential to obtain success.
Speaking to the media Dr.Pramod Kumar Kuchalakanti Senior Interventional cardiologist Kamineni hospitals LBNagar said “65 years old lady reported at our emergency department last Sunday with severe chest pain and we diagnosed the patient to be suffering from a heart attack. Immediately the patient was shifted to ICCU where the patient was detected to have developed a hole in the ventricular septum. We immediately inserted the Intra Aortic balloon pump to stabilize the patient and performed an angiogram. We found the left sided artery was totally blocked and a large hole in the heart was confirmed. We immediately suggested cardiac surgery for the patient.”
Addressing the media Dr.Sameer Diwale Consultant Cardiovascular Surgeon said- “after confirming the diagnosis we explained the patient’s family about the condition of the patient and that she required, surgical intervention immediately to close the hole, before she developed further complications like kidney failure/ liver failure, and irreversible heart failure. The surgery was performed with the latest technique of “infarct exclusion” using Heart Lung machine. Due to quick decision making on everyone’s part and surgical expertise the outcome of the surgery was very successful and the patient recovered well.”
Adding further Dr.Sunil Kumar Chief Operating Officer said “ we are also glad to inform you that the our cardiac surgery team led by Dr.Sameer Diwale has experience of more than 8000 surgeries with a very high success rate and negligible use of blood transfusion even in most complex surgeries. In this particular case we are very happy that the team work done by medical team has saved a precious life.”
