Emergency & Critical Care Centre

Pericarditis

A condition where the lining surrounding the heart becomes inflamed, often causing chest pain and discomfort.

Endocarditis

A serious infection affecting the inner lining of the heart or heart valves, which can damage heart structures and affect circulation.

Cardiomyopathy

A condition where the heart muscle becomes weakened, enlarged, stiff, or less effective at pumping blood throughout the body.

High Cholesterol

A condition where there is too much cholesterol in your blood, increasing the risk of heart disease and stroke over time.

Heart Failure

A condition where your heart is not able to pump blood effectively, leading to symptoms such as fatigue, shortness of breath, and fluid build-up.

Coronary Artery Disease

A heart condition where the blood vessels supplying your heart become narrowed over time, which can lead to chest discomfort or pain, shortness of breath, or a heart attack.

Arrhythmia

A condition where your heart beats too fast, too slow, or irregularly, which can affect how well blood is circulated through your body.

Angina

A condition where reduced blood flow to your heart causes chest discomfort, often triggered by activity or stress and relieved with rest.

Anemia

A condition in which the blood lacks enough healthy red blood cells to carry oxygen.

Hypertension

A long-term condition where blood pressure stays high, increasing the risk of heart disease, stroke, and other complications if not managed properly.

Aortic Aneurysm

A condition where part of the aorta, the body’s main artery, becomes enlarged or weakened, increasing the risk of serious complications if left untreated.

CT Scan

Testing used to identify bacterial, viral, and other infectious conditions.

Vascular Assessment

Assessment used to evaluate circulation and blood flow in the arteries and veins.

Lipid Profiles

Cholesterol testing used to assess cardiovascular and metabolic health risks.

Stress Testing

Testing used to assess how the heart responds during physical activity or controlled stimulation.
