Cardiovascular Care

A comprehensive approach is taken for cardiovascular care of the patients. The treatment plan is carefully made so that the best possible results can be achieved. There is excellent coordination between the cardiologists and the surgeons and what is best for the patient is what is offered to him/her. Nothing is done in an arbitrary fashion nor for the sake of business. Patient comes first.

There is a lot of stress on preventive cardiology in the advise given at discharge and also in the arrangement of screening and advisory heart camps that are regularly conducted by the hospital at various places.

Pulmonology and Thoracic Surgery

There are many patients with thoracic diseases and the team of Pulmonologists and Thoracic surgeons give the most comprehensive care. This is one of the few centres in the city where you would find the level of expertise and coordination in this field and hence this is going to be one of the centre of excellence in the field in the state.

Supportive services

Early recovery of the patient will occur because of good postoperative care. The ICU system at Virinchi Hospitals is based on active surveillance and quick reactions hence leading to very few life threatening problems. There strict protocols and also there is continuous education and training process that takes place. This moulds the staff into the “best of the best” in intensive care.

Good physiotherapy leads to early recovery and less pain. This is started in the immediate postoperative period and carries on till the discharge of the patient from the hospital. The patients are taught to continue some of the exercises when they go home and hence they come back for review in a healthier state.

Correct nutrition is good nutrition. We have a dedicated team of nutritionists who advise the patient on their diet and also supervise the dietary needs in the early postoperative period. In the postoperative period, the patients cannot eat very well hence the diet has to be different. After discharge, the diet stresses on early recovery as well as avoiding side effects and also is an important tool in secondary prevention of the disease process.

Blood bank and laboratory services

The Virinchi Hospitals has the state of the art blood bank and is able to supply blood and blood components required for this specialty. The laboratory services has the latest automated laboratory analysers and very good pathologists and biochemists. The Radiology department has high end CT scan, MRI scan and ultrasounds and gives round the clock services in performing scans such as angiograms, 3D reconstruction images , cardiac MR and others. This is essential for getting an early diagnosis so that we can give early treatment.

Guest relationship

There is a continuous method of interaction between the patient/ relatives and the administration. Executives will be helpful in solving the problems of the patients including seemingly small practical difficulties. This makes life less harder and eases out many small problems that would be left unattended in many other medical institutions.

Coronary artery surgery

Myocardial revascularisation as well as treatment of complications of heart attacks is the main work that is done. Minimal access cardiac surgery is performed when indicated and if the patient is stable. Patients will have quicker recovery and less pain or bleeding. We use arterial grafts usually to give long term results. Vein grafts are used only as a secondary choice.

Valve repair and replacement

Minimal access surgery is an excellent way to repair or replace the diseased heart valves. This is an usual feature with our unit. In case the patient has atrial fibrillation, we offer surgical ablation of atrial fibrillation to enable better outcomes and reduction in postoperative medications

VATS

Standard thoracic surgery is being replaced by video assisted thoracic surgery here. The pulmonologists are very efficient in interventional pulmonology and if the patient needs thoracic surgical intervention, then he/she can be subjected to VATS. This gives a fast recovery and even has immunological advantages. It has replaced the long incisions of the previous schools of surgery.

Heart and Lung transplant

The hospital has dedicated ICU for transplant surgery and is enrolled with the government for the services. The transplant team comprises of surgeon, anaesthesiologists, cardiologists and pulmonologists.

Pediatric cardiac surgery

The department has dedicated ICU for pediatric cardiac surgery and all the equipment that is required. In pediatric cardiac surgery, the outcomes depend much in good postoperative care. This is the reason for employing trained and efficient staff for the service.
