Your Cardiac Emergency Journey
From emergency response through recovery — comprehensive cardiac care
1
Rapid Assessment & Diagnosis
When a patient arrives with suspected cardiac emergency, our team immediately assesses vital signs, performs an ECG, and draws blood for cardiac enzymes. This rapid evaluation determines if a heart attack or other cardiac emergency is occurring and guides immediate treatment decisions.
2
Emergency Intervention
For heart attacks (STEMI), we immediately activate the cath lab for emergency angioplasty. If cath lab access is delayed, we administer thrombolytic (clot-busting) medications. For cardiac arrest, we initiate CPR, defibrillation, and ACLS protocols. For severe arrhythmias, we provide cardioversion or medications as needed.
3
Cardiac ICU Monitoring
After emergency treatment, patients are transferred to our cardiac ICU for continuous monitoring. We watch for complications, manage medications, and assess heart function. Our team provides education about heart disease, risk factors, and the importance of follow-up care and lifestyle changes.
4
Recovery & Prevention
As patients stabilise, we develop a comprehensive cardiac rehabilitation plan including medications, lifestyle modifications, and follow-up care. We educate patients and families about warning signs, medication adherence, and the importance of cardiac rehabilitation to prevent future events.
- FAQS
Helping You Understand Cardiac Emergency Care
Cardiac emergencies are frightening. These answers help you recognise warning signs and understand what to expect.
What are the warning signs of a heart attack?
Classic symptoms include chest pain or pressure, pain radiating to arm/jaw/back, shortness of breath, sweating, nausea, and lightheadedness. However, symptoms can vary — especially in women, diabetics, and elderly patients. If you suspect a heart attack, call emergency services (108) immediately. Do not wait or try to drive yourself.
What is door-to-balloon time and why does it matter?
Door-to-balloon time is the interval from hospital arrival to opening a blocked artery with angioplasty. The faster blocked arteries are opened, the less heart muscle is damaged. International guidelines recommend door-to-balloon times under 90 minutes. At Shrey, we focus on minimising this critical interval.
What is angioplasty and when is it needed?
Angioplasty (PCI) is a procedure where a balloon-tipped catheter is threaded to blocked heart arteries and inflated to open the blockage. A stent (small mesh tube) is often placed to keep the artery open. Emergency angioplasty is the preferred treatment for heart attacks (STEMI) when performed quickly.
What happens after a heart attack?
After emergency treatment, patients typically stay in the cardiac ICU for monitoring, then move to a regular ward. Most patients are discharged within 3-7 days with medications and lifestyle recommendations. Cardiac rehabilitation helps recovery and reduces future risk. Regular follow-up with a cardiologist is essential.
How can I prevent a heart attack?
Key prevention strategies include: not smoking, maintaining healthy blood pressure and cholesterol, controlling diabetes, regular exercise, healthy diet, maintaining healthy weight, managing stress, and regular medical check-ups. If you have risk factors, work with your doctor on a prevention plan.
