Emergency and scheduled procedures aimed at reducing the incidence and effects of cardiovascular and neurovascular diseases, using the most advanced technology.
Cardiovascular medicine is a medical specialty focused on the study and treatment of diseases of the cardiovascular system, using imaging techniques and invasive procedures.
The Hemodynamics Unit performs procedures such as cardiac catheterization, angioplasty, stent placement, and embolization, among others, with the aim of diagnosing and treating cardiovascular diseases.
Hemodynamics is essential for diagnosing cardiovascular diseases, as it provides real-time images of the cardiovascular system and allows for the assessment of blood flow, blood pressure, and heart function.
The duration of a cardiac catheterization procedure can vary depending on the type of procedure performed, but it generally ranges from 30 minutes to 2 hours.
In most cases, hospitalization is not necessary after a cardiac catheterization procedure. However, this will depend on the complexity of the procedure and the patient’s condition. The doctor will determine whether the patient needs to remain under observation or can go home the same day.
