Coronary Angiography
Coronary Angiography is an x-ray examination of the blood vessels or chambers of the heart. A small catheter is inserted into a blood vessel and the tip of the tube is positioned either in the heart or at the beginning of the arteries supplying the heart. Then a dye is injected and allows the cardiologist to determine if and where any blockages might be.

Electrophysiological Study (EPS)
Electrophysiological Study (EPS) An EPS is a procedure that is performed to diagnose arrhythmias or abnormal heart rhythms. This procedure is used to determine the type and location of an arrhythmia. Some types of arrhythmias that can be studied include atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, atrial tachycardia, and many others.

Balloon Valvuloplasty
Balloon Valvuloplasty is used when a narrowed heart valve is stretched open using a procedure that does not require open heart surgery. In this procedure, a catheter that has a small deflated balloon at the tip is inserted through the skin into a blood vessel and then is threaded up to the opening of the narrowed heart valve. The balloon is then inflated, which stretches the valve open. Typically this procedure is performed in a cardiac catheterization lab and takes up to four hours to complete.

Coronary Angioplasty
If medication is not helping your frequent chest pain or there is evidence that blood flow is being blocked in your arteries, you may need to have a coronary angioplasty. Angioplasty has a quicker recovery rate than by-pass or open heart surgery. The procedure entails a balloon catheter, which dilates the coronary artery in order to allow blood to flow to the heart muscle. Stents, an expandable wire tube that is sometimes placed in the artery to keep the artery from collapsing, is often inserted during the angioplasty procedure.

Pacemakers
An artificial Pacemaker is a small, battery operated device that helps the heart beat in a regular rhythm. Some can be permanent or temporary and can replace a defective, natural pacemaker or blocked pathway. A pacemaker works by using batteries to send electrical impulses to the heart to help it pump properly. An electrode is placed next to the heart wall and a small electrical charge travels through the wire to the heart.

Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery (CABG)
The Coronary Bypass Surgery (CABG) procedure for coronary artery disease or for a heart attack is used when arteries cannot be opened by angioplasty. Instead of removing plaque or using stents to open the artery's blood flow, the arteries that are not working properly are bypassed using a healthy vein to pump blood into the heart.

Heart Valve Repair or Replacement
Heart valve repair is a type of open heart surgery, in which an incision is made and the heart valve is repaired or replaced with an artificial one. Heart valve repair is used when mitral valve regurgitation is severe.
Catheter Ablation
When a certain portion of the heart is causing irregular heart rhythms, it is sometimes necessary to destroy that particular area in order to keep the heart beating properly. This procedure is called catheter ablation, and radio waves are used to destroy the troublesome areas.
