Procedures / Treatments

Interventional Cardiology

Interventional Cardiology (IC) is a speciality area dedicated to managing coronary artery disease and structural heart problems. Coronary artery disease is diagnosed with a minimally invasive technique known as coronary angiography, where fine tubes known as catheters are used to take X-ray images of the coronary arteries. Coronary disease can then be treated using the same minimally invasive approach, usually in the same setting, using techniques known as percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). PCI involves treatment of coronary narrowing using metal scaffolds known as stents, which have been shown to improve symptoms and quality of life as compared to medical therapy. In many situations, this can provide a safe and effective alternative to open heart surgery. Coronary Angiography Coronary Angioplasty +/- Stenting (Percutaneous Coronary Intervention - PCI) Structural heart problems that can be treated using minimally invasive techniques include narrowed valves and abnormal connections between the chambers of the heart. These techniques can also provide a safe and effective alternative to open heart surgery in selected cases. Structural Heart Procedures Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) Closure Left Atrial Appendage Closure Patent Foramen Ovale (PFO) Closure Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) Transesophageal Echocardiogram (TOE)

Interventional Radiology

Interventional Radiology (IR) is a specialised branch of medicine that utilizes advanced medical imaging techniques to perform a wide range of minimally invasive procedures. Interventional Radiology performs both diagnostic and therapeutic procedures through very small incisions. Diagnostic interventional radiology (IR) procedures are performed to aid in diagnosis or guide further medical treatment. These procedures include image-guided tumour biopsies, angiograms—where a contrast dye is injected into blood vessels to assess circulation—and cholangiograms, which involve injecting contrast into the bile ducts to identify blockages within the liver. Endovascular Aneurysm Repair (EVAR) Liver Ablation Liver Biopsy Peripheral Angiography PICC Insertion Portacath Insertion Portacath Removal Renal Ablation Renal Angiography and Angioplasty Renal Biopsy Sclerotherapy Selective Internal Radiation Therapy (SIRT) Uterine Fibroid Embolisation Varicocele Embolisation

Electrophysiology

Electrophysiology (EP) is a specialised field of cardiology that focuses on the electrical activity of the heart. It involves diagnosing and treating abnormal heart rhythms (arrhythmias). Electrophysiology procedures are performed by inserting a small, flexible tube into a blood vessel, allowing electrode catheters to be guided up to the heart. Using advanced technology, abnormal electrical pathways can be identified and, if suitable, corrected with targeted catheter ablation. This minimally invasive approach helps restore normal heart rhythms, improving patient outcomes and quality of life. Electrophysiology procedures also include the implantation of cardiac devices, such as pacemakers for slow heart rhythms and cardiac resynchronisation devices for heart failure treatment. Arrhythmias that we treat at IntraCare include atrial fibrillation (AF), atrial flutter, supraventricular tachycardia (SVT), ventricular arrhythmias including ventricular tachycardia (VT) and premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) and bradyarrhythmias.
