The cardiovascular clinic is responsible for treating the most important organ in the body, the heart and the blood vessels. Both diseases that require ongoing management related to hypertension, hyperlipidemia as well as those requiring emergency treatment such as acute myocardial infarction and angina pectoris are treated. Details are as follow.

Main Treatment Target

<Treatment target according to symptoms>
- Chest pain
- Difficulty breathing when exercising
- Dizziness
- Fainting
- Heart murmurs
- Limb edema
- ECG abnormalities

<Main treatment target per area>
- Ischemic heart disease (coronary artery disease): Angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, ischemic heart disease
- Hypertension and hyperlipidemia
- Valvular heart disease: Mitral stenosis / regurgitation, aortic stenosis / regurgitation, etc.
- Myocardial disease: Congestive heart failure, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, dilated cardiomyopathy, restrictive cardiomyopathy
- Arrhythmia: Atrial fibrillation, bradycardia arrhythmia, tachycardia arrhythmia, supraventricular arrhythmia, ventricular arrhythmia
- Aortic disease: Aortic aneurysm, aortic dissection, Takayasu arteritis
- Peripheral vascular disease: Obstructive infectious blood vessels, chronic arterial atherosclerotic occlusive diseases
- Congenital heart disease: Ventricular septal defect, atrial septal defect, PDA, Ebstein's anomaly

<Examination and Treatment Areas>
- Electrocardiogram
- Echocardiography
- Exercise electrocardiography
- Exercise cardiopulmonary function tests
- Electrocardiogram in mid-activity
- Head-up tilt test
- 4-hour ambulatory blood pressure
- Carotid ultrasound
- Hardening of the arteries (pulse wave inspection)
- Cardiac catheterization and coronary angiography
- Permanent pacemaker implantation
- Percutaneous valvuloplasty
- Pericardiocentesis
- Coronary intervention
- Drug-eluting stent implantation
- Special screening at the health screening centers for cardiovascular disease
