Overview

EgyHeart was among the first specialized cardiac care medical centers to pioneer diagnostic techniques via cardiac catheterization. EgyHeart has also pioneered the use of several catheter-based therapies, including:

• Complex coronary artery revascularization
• Invasive physiologic and hemodynamic assessments
• Repair of congenital heart defects in children and adults
• Minimally invasive structural heart disease interventions, including percutaneous valve replacement, such as transcatheter aortic valve replacement, and percutaneous mitral valve repair

At EgyHeart’s, the Interventional Cardiac Catheterization & Intensive Cardiac Care Center services are integrated into a clinical setting through the Cardiovascular Clinics department. In the Cardiovascular Clinics, you’ll consult with doctors on the latest advances relevant to your condition, and you’re then treated in the lab soon after. The Cardiovascular clinics partner with the Interventional Cardiac Catheterization & Intensive Cardiac Care Center to optimize your care.

Access to Advanced Technology

Cardiologists and staff have access to innovative technology that can extend treatment capabilities and reduce risks. Such technology is used to further improve the safety and success rates for complex procedures. Many procedures are now conducted through catheters inserted in arteries in the arm, which helps to improve your safety and comfort.
