Medicina cardiovascular

¡Bienvenido al Departamento de Medicina Cardiovascular del Insight Chicago Hospital and Medical Center! Es un privilegio para nosotros volver a ofrecer servicios de cardiología crítica a la comunidad de Bronzeville. Cuidar de tu corazón es una de las cosas más importantes que puedes hacer para mejorar tu salud y bienestar generales.

Al cuidar de tu corazón, es importante que adoptemos una visión holística que incorpore tus antecedentes familiares, tu estilo de vida y los factores de riesgo de enfermedad cardiaca.

Tener un corazón sano significa comer bien, hacer ejercicio con regularidad y tomar las medidas adecuadas para controlar enfermedades como el colesterol alto, la hipertensión y la diabetes.

Estamos entusiasmados con la gama de servicios que podemos ofrecer a nuestros pacientes, aquí mismo, en la comunidad. Nuestros cardiólogos son expertos en el tratamiento de enfermedades comunes como el colesterol alto y la tensión arterial alta (hipertensión), pero también pueden atender tus necesidades cardiacas más complejas.

Nuestras áreas de especialización en atención cardiaca incluyen las siguientes:  

  • Arritmias (ritmos cardíacos anormales) como fibrilación auricular o taquicardia supraventricular (TSV)  
  • Enfermedad arterial coronaria (EAC)
  • Insuficiencia cardiaca  
  • Hipertensión (tensión arterial alta)
  • Control de los lípidos (colesterol)
  • Enfermedad arterial periférica (EAP)
Para diagnosticar y tratar estas afecciones, nos complace poder ofrecer las siguientes pruebas de imagen, pruebas y procedimientos:  

  • Ecocardiografía (ecografía del corazón), incluida la ecocardiografía 3D
  • Ecocardiografía transesofágica (ecografía especial del corazón utilizada para obtener mejores imágenes), incluida la ETE 3-D
  • Pruebas de esfuerzo (incluidas la ecocardiografía de esfuerzo, la prueba de esfuerzo nuclear y la prueba en cinta sin fin habitual)
  • ABI y ecografías dúplex arteriales y venosas para evaluar la arteriopatía periférica (EAP)
  • Cardioversiones (procedimiento que puede ayudar a restablecer el ritmo normal)
  • Cateterismo cardiaco diagnóstico e intervenciones (por ejemplo, colocación de stents para abrir obstrucciones)
  • Angiogramas de diagnóstico e intervención de arterias periféricas
