Interventional Cardiology
Minimally invasive approach to diagnose, evaluate and treat blockages in the cardiovascular system
Interventional cardiology is a minimally invasive approach to diagnose, evaluate, and treat cardiac, valve and vascular disease. Most procedures, ranging from heart function tests to the replacement of a diseased valve, are completed through a small, hollow tube called a catheter. This catheter is placed in an artery and expertly guided into the diseased area. Procedures performed by interventional cardiologists are usually short and require a minimal hospital stay.
The experts at the New England Heart & Vascular Institute (NEHVI) harness advanced technologies in our state-of-the-art catheterization labs. Additionally, we have a 24/7, highly-trained cardiac team to perform life-saving interventions for those experiencing heart attack or cardiac arrests. The interventional cardiologists performing procedures at CMC are among the most skilled in the region, using leading-edge treatments for heart and valve diseases, including: TAVR, TEER, and CardioMEMS™.
Why choose CMC?
In our state-of-the-art catheterization labs, interventional cardiologists use advanced technologies like TAVR, TEER, and CardioMEMS™, to treat heart and valve conditions, supported by a highly-trained cardiac team available 24/7 to perform life-saving interventions for patients experiencing a heart attack or cardiac arrest.
