Cardiovascular Conditions Addressed

Dr. Nirat Beohar addresses a wide range of Cardiovascular health concerns, including:

• Atherosclerosis of Aorta: The aorta, your body's main artery, has a hardening and narrowing due to plaque buildup, a condition called atherosclerosis.
• Hypertensive Heart and Chronic Kidney Disease: High blood pressure, if left untreated with chronic kidney disease, can weaken your heart over time.
• Heart Palpitations: Heart palpitations are a sensation of a rapid, fluttering, or pounding heartbeat.
• Long COVID Disorder: Long COVID is a condition where symptoms of COVID-19 continue for weeks or months after the initial infection.
• Hypotension: Hypotension is a condition characterized by abnormally low blood pressure.
• Mitral Valve Stenosis: Mitral valve stenosis is a heart condition where the mitral valve doesn't open fully, restricting blood flow from the heart's upper left chamber to the lower left chamber.
• Pulmonary Edema: Pulmonary edema is a buildup of fluid in the lungs, causing shortness of breath.
• Mitral Valve Regurgitation: Your heart's mitral valve may not be closing properly, causing blood to flow in the wrong direction; this is called mitral valve regurgitation.
• Long QT Syndrome: Long QT syndrome is a heart condition that can cause irregular heartbeats, potentially leading to fainting or seizures.
• Mitral Valve Disease: Mitral valve disease involves various conditions affecting the valve's ability to regulate blood flow effectively, potentially leading to heart failure if left untreated.
• Primary Pulmonary Hypertension: Primary pulmonary hypertension means the blood vessels in your lungs are abnormally narrow, making it hard for your heart to pump blood.
• Heart Attack (STEMI): A STEMI is a life-threatening heart attack characterized by a complete blockage of a major coronary artery, resulting in severe and immediate damage to the heart muscle.

For more severe cases, Dr. Beohar coordinates care with a cardiac surgeon or interventional cardiologist for procedures such as valve repair or replacement (TAVR).

What is a cardiac ablation?

A cardiac ablation is a procedure used to treat heart rhythm problems (arrhythmias). It involves using catheters to deliver energy (heat or cold) to small areas of heart tissue causing the irregular rhythm, correcting the electrical signals.

Does Dr. Nirat Beohar perform bypass surgery (CABG)?

Dr. Beohar, as a cardiologist, diagnoses and treats coronary artery disease, often performing procedures like stenting. If bypass surgery (CABG) is necessary, he will refer you to a qualified cardiothoracic surgeon and work closely with them throughout your care.

What is a cardiac catheterization or angiogram?

Cardiac catheterization, or angiogram, is a minimally invasive procedure used to diagnose and treat heart conditions. A thin tube (catheter) is guided to the heart to measure pressures and visualize the coronary arteries with dye, allowing for identification of blockages.

What is a stent and why would I need one?

A stent is a tiny, expandable mesh tube placed inside a narrowed or blocked coronary artery to prop the artery open, restore blood flow to the heart muscle, and relieve symptoms like chest pain.
