Chest discomfort. Breathlessness. Heart palpitations.
Many people ignore these signs thinking “it’s nothing serious” — until it becomes serious.

Your heart usually gives signals before bigger problems start. Listening early can protect your health, your family time, and your future.

Don’t wait for symptoms to become emergencies. Timely heart care can truly save lives.

High blood pressure doesn’t always come with a warning.
No pain. No signs. No symptoms.

That’s why knowing your numbers matters.
A few minutes of regular BP monitoring today can help prevent major heart issues tomorrow — including heart attack and stroke.

Make it a habit.
Check regularly.
Protect your heart before it demands attention.

Cold weather doesn’t just affect your lungs — it makes the heart work harder too.
Lower temperatures tighten blood vessels, raise blood pressure, and increase strain on the heart.

This winter, protect your heart the smart way:
Stay warm.
Take prescribed medicines on time.
Avoid sudden exertion, especially early mornings.

Small precautions today can prevent big emergencies tomorrow.

When heart cases become high-risk, precision medicine makes the difference.

A 60-year-old patient with complex cardiac history (Post MI, Post PTCA, Post CRTD) and Severe Mitral Regurgitation (NYHA Class 4) successfully underwent MitraClip procedure with excellent clinical outcome.

Led by Dr. Viveka Kumar, this advanced structural heart intervention helped reduce symptoms, improve heart function, and restore quality of life — proving how minimally invasive cardiac innovation is changing outcomes for critical patients today.

Modern cardiology is not just about treatment anymore — it’s about giving patients a second chance at life with safer, smarter, and more precise solutions.

Advanced cardiac care is redefining what’s possible — even in the most complex heart cases.

A 60-year-old patient with extensive cardiac history (Post MI, Post PTCA, Post CRTD) and Severe Mitral Regurgitation presenting in NYHA Class 4 condition successfully underwent MitraClip procedure with excellent clinical outcome.

Under the expert guidance of Dr. Viveka Kumar, this advanced structural heart intervention helped stabilise symptoms, improve functional capacity, and significantly enhance overall quality of life.

Cases like these highlight how modern minimally invasive cardiac technologies are providing new hope to high-risk heart patients who may otherwise have very limited treatment options. Precision diagnosis, careful planning and advanced interventional expertise together are transforming cardiac outcomes in today’s era.
