Interventional Cardiology at Kern Medical
At Kern Medical, we offer advanced interventional cardiology services using
minimally invasive, catheter-based techniques to diagnose and treat a
range of cardiovascular conditions. Our highly skilled interventional
cardiologists perform the following procedures:
-
Angioplasty and Stent Placement
To open narrowed or blocked coronary arteries and improve blood flow to
the heart.
-
Cardiac Catheterization
A diagnostic procedure used to evaluate heart function, measure blood flow,
and assess pressure within the heart chambers.
-
Atherectomy
A technique to remove plaque buildup from arteries, restoring healthy blood flow.
-
Closure of Heart Defects
Minimally invasive repair of structural heart issues such as atrial septal
defects (ASD) and patent foramen ovale (PFO).
-
Balloon Valvuloplasty
A procedure to widen narrowed heart valves, improving valve function.
-
Peripheral Vascular Interventions
Treatment of blocked arteries outside the heart, particularly in the legs,
to manage peripheral artery disease.
-
Structural Heart Interventions
Advanced treatments such as
TAVR (Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement) for aortic stenosis and
Mitral Clip for mitral valve repair.
