The Department of Cardiology at Lifeline Tulasi Hospital is an acknowledged centre of excellence. It is well known for its advanced, innovative research-backed and path-breaking services for heart patients. The Institute is known for its renowned cardiologists, electrophysiologists and cardiac intensivists and undertakes all kinds of complex procedures. The Institute is equipped with advanced cath labs(Philips Allura FD10), EP Lab, OPD Services, Non-invasive labs, 4 state-of-the-art cardiac surgery theatres, CTICU and excellent room services backed up by well trained medical, nursing and technical staff. Lifeline Tulasi Hospital has a multidisciplinary approach to cardiac care involving senior cardiologists, cardiac surgeons, Cardiology specialists, anaesthetics, cardiac technicians and nurses.

Electro Physiology:- EPS+ RFA, Pacemakers, ICD, CRT-D, CRT-P, LVADS.
An Atherectomy is a procedure that utilizes a catheter with a sharp blade on the end to remove plaque from a blood vessel. The catheter is inserted into the artery through a small puncture in the artery, and it is performed regularly by Tulasi Cardiologists.
This procedure involves the placement of a various number of catheters with small electrodes into the heart from the groin (sometimes also neck) veins and at times arteries to several locations within the heart where signals are monitored and recorded. Electrical impulses are then used to evaluate the patient’s own “pacemaker” (sinus node) as well as conduction within the heart.
An implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator or automated implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator is a device implantable inside the body, able to perform cardioversion, defibrillation, and pacing of the heart. These devices are implanted in patients who have severe LV dysfunctions with ventricular arrhythmias. These devices are life-saving in selected patients.
Congenital pulmonary stenosis is a health problem present from birth. It’s when the pulmonary valve in the heart doesn’t fully open. Congenital pulmonary stenosis balloon valvuloplasty is a type of procedure that aims to fix this problem. Pulmonary Valvuloplasties are routinely done for different age groups at Tulasi Hospital.
