FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is the role of an interventional cardiologist?

An interventional cardiologist specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of heart and blood vessel conditions using minimally invasive techniques. Interventional cardiologists perform various procedures, such as angioplasties, placing stents and repairing valves, all without open-heart surgery.

When should I see an interventional cardiologist?

You may need to see an interventional cardiologist if you have:

Chest pain (angina)
Heart attack, or history of heart attack
Blocked or narrowed coronary arteries
Heart valve issues
Peripheral artery disease
Abnormal heart rhythms

What interventions do interventional cardiologists perform?

The most common interventions include:

Coronary angiography: imaging of the heart arteries
Angioplasty and stenting: opening of blocked arteries
Rotablator: removal of hardened plaque from arteries
IVUS (intravascular ultrasound) and OCT (optical coherence tomography): advanced imaging to guide the intervention
TAVI (Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement): minimally invasive valve replacement
Pacemaker placement: temporary or permanent.

Are interventional procedures safe?

Yes. Interventional cardiac procedures are minimally invasive and imaging guided, which means they usually have shorter recovery times compared to open-heart surgery. There are inherent risks to any medical procedure but your specialist is usually experienced and will minimize these risks.

What is the difference between interventional cardiology and general cardiology?

General cardiologists primarily treat heart disease through diagnosis, medication, and lifestyle modification.
Interventional cardiologists use procedures to fix problems in the heart and blood vessels.

Are surgeries appropriate for high-risk patients?

Yes. There are many interventions, including ultracontrast sparing interventions specifically designed for patients with kidney issues, complex arterial blockages, or a combination of medical conditions.
