Happy to Perform the First RiForm PRO Case in Central India

Image
  We are proud to share a milestone achievement—successfully performing the first RiForm PRO case in Central India in a challenging scenario involving a balloon-uncrossable, imaging-uncrossable heavily calcified lesion. Such complex coronary cases demand precision, innovation, and the right technology—and RiForm PRO delivered exceptionally. What sets RiForm PRO apart is its advanced design and operator-friendly features. With no gas cylinder requirement, the system simplifies procedural setup while maintaining efficiency. Its dual cutting mechanism (front and back cutting) ensures effective plaque modification, even in the most resistant calcified lesions. Despite relatively lower ablation speeds, it offers greater effectiveness and control, enhancing procedural outcomes. One of the standout advantages is its workhorse-like capability, allowing upfront wiring, which is often a limitation in complex cases. The device enables dual motion—forward, backward, and circumferential movemen...

Smoking and Heart Attack: A Growing Concern in Indore

Image
  Smoking has long been identified as one of the leading causes of heart disease worldwide. In recent years, Indore has also witnessed a noticeable rise in heart-related emergencies, especially among young and middle-aged adults. The growing habit of cigarette smoking, along with tobacco consumption in various forms, has become a serious public health concern. The link between smoking and heart attack is strong, direct, and often life-threatening. How Smoking Damages Your Heart Every puff of a cigarette releases thousands of harmful chemicals into the body. These toxic substances damage the lining of the arteries, leading to the buildup of fatty deposits known as plaque. Over time, this condition, called atherosclerosis, narrows the arteries and restricts blood flow to the heart. When blood supply is suddenly blocked, it results in a heart attack. Smoking also: Increases blood pressure Raises heart rate Reduces oxygen supply to the heart Promotes blood clot formation These effects ...

First Laser Angioplasty in Central India | Apollo Hospital

In a momentous step for heart care in Central India, Apollo Hospitals, Indore has introduced the region’s first advanced Cardiac Laser System , offering Laser Angioplasty — a state-of-the-art, minimally invasive procedure to treat complex coronary artery blockages. This historic milestone was successfully led by renowned cardiology experts Dr. Sarita Rao and Dr. K. Roshan Rao , strengthening heart care services for patients across Central India. Heart disease continues to be one of India’s leading health threats.

Traditional angioplasty has been a mainstay treatment, but for certain patients with complex, heavily calcified, or chronic blockages , even conventional techniques may fall short. Here’s where laser angioplasty becomes a game-changer. What Is Laser Angioplasty? Laser angioplasty is an advanced form...

Can Walking Daily Reduce High Blood Pressure?

Image
High blood pressure (hypertension) is one of the most common health problems today, affecting people of all ages. It often develops silently and increases the risk of heart attack, stroke, and kidney disease. While medicines are important for many patients, lifestyle changes play a crucial role in long-term blood pressure control. One simple habit that often raises questions is daily walking. So, can walking every day really help reduce high blood pressure? The answer is yes—when done consistently and correctly. How Walking Affects Blood Pressure Walking is a low-impact aerobic exercise that improves heart health. When you walk regularly, your heart becomes stronger and pumps blood more efficiently. This reduces the pressure on your arteries, leading to lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure over time. Studies have shown that brisk walking for 30 minutes a day, at least 5 days a week, can reduce systolic blood pressure by 5–10 mmHg in people with mild to moderate hypertension. Wal...
