Cath lab

Interventional cardiology

Catheterization and endovascular procedures to diagnose and treat the heart, the brain and the arteries.

A specialist in a cap, glasses and sterile gown watches the image of the heart's arteries on the screen during a procedure in the cath lab.
Our cath lab at Location 2.

Our interventional unit provides invasive diagnosis and treatment in four areas: cardiovascular, neurology, peripheral vascular and electrophysiology. Our technology allows safe, reliable procedures, so patients do not need to travel to other cities.

To schedule an interventional procedure you can also write to [email protected] or call +57 312 362 1884.

Cardiac catheterization and coronary intervention

Studies the heart's arteries with thin catheters inserted through the groin or the arm. When there is a blockage, the artery can be opened and stents implanted to restore blood flow.

  • Right and left heart catheterization
  • Coronary angiography
  • Coronary angioplasty with stents, one or more vessels
  • Coronary atherectomy

Electrophysiology

Studies the heart's electrical activity to assess and treat complex arrhythmias, explain symptoms and estimate the risk of future arrhythmias.

  • Electrophysiology study
  • Radiofrequency catheter ablation
  • Single- and dual-chamber pacemaker implantation
  • Implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD)
  • Temporary pacemaker and event monitor implantation
  • Device check, reprogramming and removal

Neurointervention

Endovascular treatment of diseases of the brain, spinal cord, spine, and head and neck.

  • Cerebral angiography
  • Endovascular treatment of aneurysms, malformations and arteriovenous fistulas
  • Thrombolysis for ischemic stroke
  • Intracranial angioplasty
  • Preoperative tumor embolization

Peripheral vascular

Diagnosis and treatment of blocked or narrowed arteries and veins in the arms, legs, abdomen and neck.

  • Angiography of the limbs, carotid and renal arteries, and aorta
  • Balloon or stent angioplasty of the limbs and abdominal vessels
  • Phlebography, venography and cavography
