Cardiology

Cardiology Department

The heart is one of the most vital organs in the human body, and its regular function is essential for life. However, genetic factors, lifestyle habits, stress, and environmental influences can negatively affect heart health.

Cardiology is the branch of medicine specialized in the early diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases related to the heart and vascular system.

At the Cardiology Department of Hayat Sifa Hospital, advanced diagnostic methods and patient-centered approaches are used to protect and improve cardiovascular health.

Main Conditions Diagnosed and Treated in the Cardiology Department

  • Coronary Artery Disease: Caused by narrowing or blockage of the arteries supplying the heart, significantly increasing the risk of heart attack.
  • Hypertension (High Blood Pressure): Persistent elevation of blood pressure that may lead to serious damage to the heart and blood vessels if left untreated.
  • Heart Failure: A condition in which the heart is unable to pump sufficient blood to meet the body’s needs, often presenting with shortness of breath, fatigue, and swelling (edema).
  • Arrhythmias (Heart Rhythm Disorders): Abnormal or irregular heartbeats that may cause palpitations, dizziness, or fainting.
  • Congenital Heart Diseases: Structural heart abnormalities present at birth, including conditions such as Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) and Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD).
  • Heart Valve Diseases: Disorders caused by narrowing or incomplete closure of heart valves, potentially leading to impaired blood flow and heart failure over time.
  • Rheumatic Heart Diseases: A group of conditions that develop after rheumatic fever and primarily affect the heart valves.
  • Infective Endocarditis: Inflammation of the inner lining or valves of the heart caused by bacterial infections.
  • Heart Muscle and Cardiac Tumors: Conditions such as myocarditis (inflammation of the heart muscle), cardiomyopathies, and rare cardiac tumors.
