Not every coronary blockage requires a stent.
While stents are lifesaving in certain cases, many blockages can be safely managed with medicines, lifestyle changes, or other non-invasive strategies.
The decision depends on factors like the severity of the blockage, symptoms, heart function, and overall risk.
A personalized approach ensures patients get the right treatment — without unnecessary procedures. Always trust your cardiologist to guide you with the safest and most effective option.

Pregnancy is a beautiful journey, but for women with congenital heart defects, it can also present unique challenges.

With expert care, regular follow-ups, and proper planning, many women with congenital heart disease can safely experience motherhood.
Understanding the risks and staying proactive ensures the best outcomes for both mother and baby.

Many patients believe that once congenital heart disease is surgically repaired, their heart health is “fixed” forever.
The truth is, lifelong follow-up is essential.
Even after repair, subtle complications can arise over time, such as valve problems, arrhythmias, or heart function decline.
Regular check-ups allow cardiologists to monitor heart health, detect changes early, and provide timely interventions that can make a big difference in long-term outcomes.
Staying consistent with follow-up care is not just a precaution — it’s a commitment to living a healthier, safer life.

Stents are lifesaving tools that open blocked arteries and restore blood flow, especially during a heart attack.
They relieve chest pain, prevent further damage, and improve quality of life. But it’s important to know what they don’t do.
A stent does not cure heart disease, reverse artery damage, or protect against future blockages. Long-term heart health still depends on medicines, lifestyle changes, and regular follow-up care.
Think of a stent as part of the solution—not the entire cure.
Protect your stent by protecting your heart.

Silent heart attacks often go unnoticed because their warning signs are subtle or mistaken for fatigue, indigestion, or muscle pain.
Unlike the dramatic chest pain people usually associate with heart attacks, silent ones may show up as mild discomfort, shortness of breath, or even no symptoms at all.
This makes them particularly dangerous since damage to the heart can progress without proper treatment.
Knowing your risk factors, listening to your body, and going for regular heart check-ups are key steps to prevent silent heart damage from becoming a bigger threat.

Quitting smoking or va**ng isn’t easy—but it’s one of the most powerful decisions you can make for your health.
The cravings, habits, and triggers can feel overwhelming, but with the right strategies and support, you can take back control.
Start by setting a clear quit date and letting your friends and family know for accountability. Replace the habit with healthier alternatives like exercise, chewing sugar-free gum, or practicing deep breathing.
Avoid your usual triggers, and don’t be afraid to lean on professional help or support groups. Remember, each day without smoking or va**ng is a victory for your lungs, heart, and future.

Your ECG is your heart’s emergency language. During a heart attack, it doesn’t just draw lines on paper—it reveals life-saving clues.
An ECG can show if a coronary artery is blocked, whether dangerous heart rhythms are developing, and whether it’s a STEMI or NSTEMI that needs urgent treatment.
In many cases, it can even signal problems before blood tests confirm the damage.If sudden chest pain strikes, don’t wait.
An ECG in the right hands can save your life within minutes.
