Cardiac diagnostics and monitoring
The cardiology department uses a full range of non-invasive tests to evaluate the heart's size and pumping ability. Patients receive an initial assessment to determine the severity of the muscle weakness. Available diagnostic tools include:
- Electrocardiography (EKG). This test records the electrical activity of the heart.
- Echocardiography. This ultrasound shows the heart's chambers and valves in motion.
- Rhythm and tension Holter. Portable devices monitor heart activity over 24 hours.
- Heart catheterization. This invasive test measures pressure and blood flow inside the heart.
- Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE). A specialized probe provides clearer images of the heart from the esophagus.
Advanced treatment and surgical procedures
Assoc. Prof. Dr. Zeki Doğan leads the cardiology efforts with over 25 years of experience in heart failure management. He is a member of the Turkish and European Cardiology Associations. For patients with dilated cardiomyopathy, the hospital provides specialized interventions to prevent complications and improve heart rhythm.
- Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). This implant helps the heart's chambers beat in a coordinated way.
- Implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD). This device corrects life-threatening arrhythmias.
- Pacemaker implantation. Permanent or temporary devices regulate abnormal heart rates.
- Heart failure treatment. This includes medical management and interventional support in a 24/7 coronary intensive care unit.
- Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). A catheter-based method for valve replacement without open-heart surgery.
