Advanced heart care, precise diagnostics, and life-saving support—right here in Tura.

Overview

Your heart is the engine of your life. It works 24/7 without a break, and it deserves the best possible care. At A. Care Hospital, we understand the rising concern of heart disease in our community.

Our Department of Cardiology focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, and management of heart conditions. We are dedicated to bringing specialized cardiac care to the Garo Hills, ensuring that you have access to expert advice and advanced diagnostics without the need to travel long distances. Whether it's managing high blood pressure or stabilizing a cardiac emergency, we are here to protect your vital rhythm.

Non-Invasive Diagnostics (Know Your Heart)

Early detection is the key to preventing heart attacks. We use advanced technology to look inside your heart without any surgery.

• ECG (Electrocardiogram): The first step in checking your heart's electrical rhythm.

• 2D Echocardiography (Echo): An advanced ultrasound for the heart. It allows our doctors to see how well your heart is pumping and check the health of your valves.

• TMT (Treadmill Stress Test): A "fitness test" for your heart to detect blockages that only appear when you are active.

• Holter Monitoring: Recording your heart rhythm over 24 hours to catch irregularities that a standard ECG might miss.

Clinical Cardiology & Disease Management

Heart disease is often a lifelong journey. We partner with you to manage it effectively.

• Hypertension (High Blood Pressure): Known as the "silent killer," we provide specialized plans to keep your BP in the safe zone.

• Heart Failure Management: Helping patients with weak hearts live active, fuller lives through medication and lifestyle changes.

• Ischemic Heart Disease: Medical management of angina (chest pain) to prevent future heart attacks.

• Arrhythmia Management: Treating irregular heartbeats (palpitations) with medication and monitoring.

Emergency Cardiac Care

In a heart emergency, time is muscle. Our Emergency Department is equipped to handle cardiac crises.

• Golden Hour Stabilization: Immediate medical intervention for heart attacks (Myocardial Infarction) to stabilize the patient before further procedures.

• Cardiac Monitoring: Our ICU/MICU is equipped with continuous cardiac monitors to watch over patients with unstable heart conditions 24/7.

Preventive Cardiology

We believe the best way to treat heart disease is to stop it before it starts.

• Healthy Heart Packages: Annual screenings designed to assess your risk based on your age, weight, and family history.

• Lifestyle Counseling: Working with our Diet & Nutrition team to create heart-healthy diet plans that reduce cholesterol and improve overall fitness.

Rapid Diagnosis: With our in-house lab and imaging services, we don't guess—we know. We get to the root of your chest pain or breathlessness quickly.

Holistic Approach: The heart is connected to everything. Since we are a multispecialty hospital, our Cardiologists work closely with Nephrologists (Kidney) and Diabetologists (Internal Medicine) to treat the whole patient, as these conditions often go hand-in-hand.

Local Expertise: We understand the diet and lifestyle of the region, allowing us to give advice that is practical and easy for our patients to follow.

When should you see a Cardiologist?

Don't wait for a crisis. Book an appointment if you experience:

• Chest pain or heaviness.

• Shortness of breath while walking or lying down.

• Palpitations (fast or skipping heartbeats).

• Constant fatigue or swelling in the legs (Edema).

• A family history of heart disease.
