Heart Failure Treatment & Care by Dr. S.K. Tripathi, D.M. Cardiology

Compassionate and Advanced Care for Heart Weakness

Heart failure is a chronic condition where the heart is unable to pump blood efficiently to meet the body’s needs. At our comprehensive cardiac care center, Dr. S.K. Tripathi, D.M. Cardiology and Professor of Cardiology, offers expert heart failure diagnosis, treatment, and long-term care plans aimed at improving your quality of life and reducing complications.

What is Heart Failure?

Heart failure occurs when the heart’s muscles weaken or become stiff, affecting its ability to circulate blood. This can lead to fatigue, shortness of breath, swelling in the legs, and other health issues. Heart failure may result from coronary artery disease, hypertension, heart attacks, or valve problems.

Why Early Treatment is Essential

If left unmanaged, heart failure can significantly impact daily life and may lead to hospitalizations or life-threatening complications. Early diagnosis and a structured treatment plan can slow disease progression, enhance physical strength, and improve survival rates.

Comprehensive Heart Failure Treatment Approach

Medication Therapy – Including ACE inhibitors, beta-blockers, diuretics, and other drugs to improve heart function

Device-Based Therapy – Pacemakers, ICDs (Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillators), and CRT (Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy) where necessary

Lifestyle Modifications – Heart-healthy diet, weight management, and regular physical activity
