Cardiomyopathy

At Srinidhi Heart and Child Clinic, we specialize in diagnosing, treating, and managing cardiomyopathy, a group of diseases that affect the heart muscle. Under the expert guidance of Dr. V Sravan Kumar, our clinic offers comprehensive care aimed at improving heart function and enhancing the quality of life for patients with cardiomyopathy.

Diagnosis and Monitoring

Comprehensive Diagnostic Tools: We use advanced diagnostic techniques to accurately identify the type and severity of cardiomyopathy. This includes echocardiograms, cardiac MRI, and genetic testing.

Echocardiogram: A non-invasive ultrasound test that evaluates the heart’s structure and function, providing detailed images of the heart muscle and valves.

Cardiac MRI: An imaging technique that gives detailed pictures of the heart’s structure and function, helping to assess the extent of cardiomyopathy and guide treatment decisions.

Genetic Testing: Used for identifying hereditary forms of cardiomyopathy, aiding in early diagnosis and management for at-risk family members.

Treatment Options

Medication Management: Prescription of medications to manage symptoms, improve heart function, and prevent complications. This includes beta-blockers, ACE inhibitors, and anticoagulants.

Lifestyle and Risk Factor Management: Personalized recommendations for lifestyle changes, including diet, exercise, and stress management, to help control symptoms and improve overall heart health.

Device Therapy: Implantation of devices such as pacemakers or implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) to help manage heart rhythms and prevent sudden cardiac events.

Surgical Interventions: Procedures such as septal myectomy or heart transplant may be considered for severe cases where other treatments are not effective.

Ongoing Care and Support

Regular Follow-ups: Scheduled appointments to monitor the progression of cardiomyopathy, assess treatment effectiveness, and make necessary adjustments to the care plan.

Patient Education: Providing comprehensive information about cardiomyopathy, treatment options, and self-care strategies to empower patients in managing their condition.

Supportive Therapies: Access to cardiac rehabilitation programs and counseling services to support physical and emotional well-being.

Emergency Care: Immediate intervention for acute symptoms or complications of cardiomyopathy, ensuring prompt and effective treatment.
