Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI) Interventional Cardiology Programme  |
Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI) occurs when the blood supply to a part of the heart is interrupted, causing death and scarring of the local heart tissue. Since the area affected may be large or small, the severity of heart attacks can vary, but they are often life-threatening medical emergencies that demand both immediate attention and activation of the emergency medical services.
In the event of a patient getting a heart attack, the Cardiology team is equipped to perform an immediate coronary angiogram and access the damaged vessel immediately, thus restoring flow to the affected area of heart muscle in the shortest possible time span. |
Angioplasty is considered the most effective way to stop a heart attack.
This programme is coordinated by a centralised emergency base station for all types of cardiac emergencies. The emergency team has advanced cardiac life support ambulances and air evacuation services to take care of the needs of patients, with comprehensive on-site, state-of-the-art diagnostic facilities along with triaging, resuscitation capabilities and trained medical staff. |
