The Heart & Vascular Institute at Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi is a center of excellence, providing world-class cardiovascular care through cutting-edge treatments, advanced technology, and a team of highly skilled specialists. Our institute is dedicated to diagnosing, managing, and treating a wide range of heart and vascular conditions to improve the quality of life for our patients. Below, we explore the various conditions we treat and our comprehensive approach to cardiovascular care.
Coronary Artery Disease (CAD)
Coronary artery disease is one of the leading causes of heart-related complications. It occurs when the coronary arteries, responsible for supplying blood to the heart, become narrowed or blocked due to plaque buildup. We offer advanced diagnostic and treatment options for CAD, including:
- Angioplasty and Stenting: Minimally invasive procedures to restore blood flow.
- Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery (CABG): A surgical option for severe cases.
- Lifestyle Modification Programs: Aiding in prevention and long-term management.
Heart Failure
Heart failure occurs when the heart’s ability to pump blood is compromised. Our specialized programs focus on:
- Medical Management: Optimized use of medications to improve heart function.
- Advanced Heart Failure Therapies: Including ventricular assist devices (VADs) and heart transplants.
- Cardiac Rehabilitation: Personalized exercise and education programs to enhance recovery.
Arrhythmias (Irregular Heartbeats)
Arrhythmias occur when the electrical signals in the heart malfunction, causing abnormal heart rhythms. We treat:
- Atrial Fibrillation (AFib): The most common arrhythmia, increasing the risk of stroke.
- Bradycardia and Tachycardia: Slow or fast heartbeats that require intervention.
- Electrophysiology Studies and Ablation: Minimally invasive procedures to correct arrhythmias.
- Pacemakers and Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillators (ICDs): Devices to regulate heart rhythm.
Valvular Heart Disease
Heart valve diseases affect the function of one or more of the heart’s four valves. We specialize in:
- Valve Repair and Replacement: Including minimally invasive transcatheter procedures (TAVR, TMVR).
- Surgical Interventions: Complex open-heart surgeries when required.
- Ongoing Monitoring and Management: To ensure optimal valve function.
Congenital Heart Disease (CHD)
Congenital heart diseases are structural abnormalities present at birth. Our institute provides:
- Pediatric and Adult CHD Care: A lifelong approach to congenital heart issues.
- Minimally Invasive Repairs: Including catheter-based treatments.
- Complex Surgeries: For severe congenital heart defects.
Aortic Diseases
Diseases affecting the aorta, the body’s main artery, can be life-threatening. Our expertise includes:
- Aortic Aneurysm Repair: Both open and endovascular techniques.
- Aortic Dissection Treatment: Emergency interventions to prevent rupture.
- Surveillance Programs: For early detection and management.
Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) and Vascular Conditions
PAD occurs when arteries outside the heart become narrowed, typically affecting the legs. We provide:
- Endovascular Therapy: Minimally invasive procedures to restore blood flow.
- Bypass Surgery: For severe cases requiring rerouting of blood supply.
- Wound Care and Limb Preservation: Specialized programs to prevent complications.
Hypertension (High Blood Pressure) Management
Uncontrolled hypertension is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Our comprehensive approach includes:
- Medication Therapy: Tailored to individual patient needs.
- Lifestyle and Dietary Counseling: To reduce blood pressure naturally.
- Advanced Diagnostic Testing: Identifying underlying causes of hypertension.
Cardiac Rehabilitation and Preventive Cardiology
Preventing heart disease and supporting recovery post-treatment is a key focus. Our programs include:
- Supervised Exercise Training: To strengthen the heart.
- Nutritional Guidance: Personalized diet plans to promote heart health.
- Stress Management Techniques: Addressing emotional well-being.
