At Omnia Hospital, we provide expert diagnosis and treatment for a variety of chest and heart conditions beyond common issues like heart failure, hypertension, and breathlessness. Our multidisciplinary team of cardiologists and pulmonologists work together to offer cutting-edge care for a broad range of cardiopulmonary diseases, ensuring that each patient receives the highest standard of personalized care.
Some of the additional chest and heart conditions we specialize in include:
• Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD): COPD is a progressive lung disease that causes difficulty breathing, frequent lung infections, and chronic cough. Our team offers personalized care, including medication, oxygen therapy, and pulmonary rehabilitation to manage symptoms and improve quality of life.
• Pulmonary Hypertension: This condition occurs when the blood pressure in the arteries of the lungs becomes abnormally high, causing strain on the heart and lungs. We use advanced diagnostics and a combination of medications and therapies to manage this condition effectively.
• Atrial Fibrillation (AFib): AFib is a type of irregular heartbeat that can increase the risk of stroke and heart complications. At Omnia Hospital, we provide medication management, lifestyle advice, and advanced therapies to help restore normal heart rhythm and reduce the risk of complications.
• Valvular Heart Disease: Valvular heart disease involves damage or dysfunction of one or more of the heart valves, leading to issues such as stenosis or regurgitation. We offer comprehensive diagnostic tests, including echocardiograms, to evaluate valve function and guide treatment decisions, including medication or referrals for surgery if necessary.
• Pericarditis: Inflammation of the pericardium, the protective sac around the heart, can cause chest pain and other symptoms. Our team diagnoses and treats pericarditis with anti-inflammatory medications and other therapies to relieve symptoms and prevent complications.
• Arrhythmias: In addition to atrial fibrillation, we manage other heart rhythm disorders, offering treatments ranging from medications and lifestyle changes to advanced procedures, depending on the type and severity of the arrhythmia.
• Pulmonary Embolism (PE): A pulmonary embolism occurs when a blood clot blocks an artery in the lungs, leading to shortness of breath, chest pain, and other severe symptoms. Omnia Hospital offers rapid diagnosis and treatment for this life-threatening condition, including blood thinners and clot removal procedures.
Diagnosing chest and heart diseases requires advanced tools and a detailed understanding of cardiopulmonary health. At Omnia Hospital, we utilize the latest diagnostic technologies to accurately assess these conditions, including:
• Echocardiography and ECG: To evaluate the structure and function of the heart, and detect conditions such as valve disorders, arrhythmias, and pericarditis.
• Pulmonary Function Tests (PFTs): These tests measure lung capacity and function, helping us diagnose and monitor lung diseases like COPD and pulmonary hypertension.
• Chest X-rays and CT Scans: Imaging tests are crucial for identifying structural abnormalities in the lungs and heart, including detecting pulmonary embolisms or signs of pericarditis.
• Treadmill Stress Tests (TMT): To assess how well the heart works during physical activity and detect coronary artery disease or heart rhythm issues.
At Omnia Hospital, we believe in tailoring each treatment plan to the unique needs of our patients. For chest and heart conditions, our approach involves a combination of:
• Medication Management: We prescribe medications based on the patient’s specific diagnosis, including anticoagulants for pulmonary embolisms, beta-blockers for arrhythmias, or bronchodilators for COPD.
• Lifestyle Modifications: Our team emphasizes the importance of healthy lifestyle changes, such as quitting smoking, managing stress, and following a heart-healthy diet to improve outcomes and prevent the progression of disease.
• Non-Invasive Therapies: For conditions like pulmonary hypertension or valvular heart disease, we offer non-invasive treatments, including Enhanced External Counterpulsation (EECP), to improve heart function and alleviate symptoms.
• Rehabilitation Programs: For chronic conditions like COPD and arrhythmias, we provide rehabilitation programs that include exercise, education, and counseling to help patients manage their symptoms and improve their overall health.
Chronic chest and heart diseases often require long-term management and continuous monitoring. At Omnia Hospital, we ensure that each patient receives regular follow-up care, including adjustments to treatment plans as needed. Our dedicated team is committed to improving the quality of life for every patient through ongoing support and education.
Omnia Hospital is dedicated to offering cutting-edge care for patients with chest and heart conditions, using a comprehensive, patient-centered approach. With state-of-the-art diagnostic tools, personalized treatment plans, and a multidisciplinary team of specialists, we ensure that every patient receives the most effective care for their specific health needs.
