CARDIOLOGY & CATH. LAB

CARDIOLOGY & CATH. LAB. SERVICES

We recognize the high prevalence of cardiovascular disease and that it is the leading cause of death globally, hence AMC is committed to providing a comprehensive approach to tackle cardiovascular disease including, a full array of diagnostics and therapeutic services that utilize the latest technologies.

Managing Heart Attacks/ Acute Myocardial Infarctions (AMI):

Research shows that opening a blocked heart artery within 90 minutes of diagnosis provides the best chance for recovery. We at the AMC have a system that utilizes a multidisciplinary approach to provide the best possible care for heart attacks. Starting at our Emergency Department, our protocol aims to provide rapid diagnosis and treatment that can dramatically increase the chance for a good outcome. Once an acute MI is suspected, the cardiologist is contacted and the cardiac catheterization lab team is activated and is ready to start the procedure in matter of minutes.
Our Cardiology Center provides a full range of cardiovascular services including general cardiology; interventional cardiology; electrophysiology; cardiac catheterizations; coronary angiograms and interventions; structural heart interventions; peripheral angiograms and interventions; advanced heart failure care; circulatory assist devices; cardiac and vascular surgeries;arrhythmia ablations; CRT devices; and insertion of cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators.
Our cardiac catheterization lab; echocardiography/stress lab; and imaging units (MRI, CT, nuclear medicine) are equipped with state of the art technology. The clinical excellence of the center is reflected by consistently ranking high throughout the MENA region and is a leader in medical excellence with a distinguished group of cardiologists, cardiovascular surgeons, and highly experienced and well-trained nurses, medical technicians, and support staff.

Cardiology & Cardiovascular Center- AMC

Our outpatient cardiology clinics are staffed by a highly qualified group of cardiologists who focus on providing comprehensive cardiovascular care. Our cardiologists integrate preventive care, patient education, and life style and wellness programs into their practices to achieve both primary and secondary prevention modalities of cardiovascular illnesses.

Catheterization Center

At the AMC we aim to improve the outcome of cardiovascular disease through early intervention. Because we are devoted to fostering unparalleled cardiovascular care, we give a special attention to our Cardiac Catheterization Unit. Cardiac catheterization (heart Cath.) is the insertion of a catheter into a chamber or vessel of the heart. This is done for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. Simply put, we have the finest clinical teams and the best state-of-the-art equipment available to both diagnose cardiovascular disease and intervene. An experienced and dedicated team that is available 24/7 will provide you with the highest quality care available.

Newest Most Innovative Equipment

With the continuous addition of the newest and most innovative pieces of medical equipment available in the world from premier global manufacturers and pioneers in their field (such as our ceiling-mount Artis Q Cath. Lab from Siemens), AMC provides its physicians and patients with the tools they desperately need to address all new and complicated procedures in cardiac care with minimal radiation exposure; Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), Endovascular aneurysm repair (or endovascular aortic repair) (EVAR),  Chronic Total Occlusion Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (CTO PCI) and Dyna-CT Angiography are only examples for procedures that are currently available in AMC for physicians and their patients.
