Conditions Treated

Ventricular Tachycardia (VT)

Ventricular Tachycardia (VT) is a potentially life-threatening heart rhythm disorder in which the lower chambers (ventricles) beat abnormally fast. This rapid heart rate can reduce blood flow to the body and may lead to fainting, heart failure, or sudden cardiac arrest. VT often occurs in people with underlying heart conditions such as cardiomyopathy, previous heart attacks, or electrolyte imbalances. Emergency Defibrillation is the life saving treatment in most cases. Early detection, medical management, and interventions like implantable defibrillators can prevent complications and improve survival.

Valvular Heart Disease

Valvular Heart Disease (VHD) occurs when one or more of the heart’s valves—mitral, aortic, tricuspid, or pulmonary—malfunction due to narrowing (stenosis), leakage (regurgitation), or prolapse. This disrupts normal blood flow and may lead to symptoms such as fatigue, shortness of breath, or heart failure. Causes include rheumatic fever, congenital defects, infections, or age-related degeneration. Early diagnosis, medical management, and surgical interventions such as valve repair or replacement help restore valve function and prevent complications.

Sports Medicine / Exercise Fitness

Sports medicine and exercise fitness focus on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of injuries and conditions related to physical activity, as well as optimizing athletic performance and overall health. It encompasses exercise physiology, injury rehabilitation, nutrition, and training techniques to support safe and effective physical activity. Professionals in this field help individuals—from casual exercisers to elite athletes—maintain cardiovascular health, muscle strength, flexibility, and endurance. Regular, structured physical activity under guidance improves physical fitness, prevents chronic diseases, enhances mental well-being, and supports long-term functional health.

Rheumatic Heart Disease (RHD)

Rheumatic Heart Disease (RHD) is a chronic heart condition caused by damage to heart valves following rheumatic fever, which is an inflammatory disease triggered by an untreated or poorly treated streptococcal throat infection. Valve damage can lead to heart failure, arrhythmias, and increased risk of stroke. RHD is more common in children and young adults in low-resource settings. Early diagnosis, antibiotic prophylaxis, and medical or surgical management of valve disease can prevent complications and improve long-term outcomes.
