At ILS Hospitals, we have state of the art treatment modality for treating heart failure with implantable devices. The aim is to increase heart function, alleviate symptoms and quality of life in patients with chronic heart failure who fail by standard therapies. There are essentially 2 devices that are used, the CRT device that assists in the coordination of the heart’s contractions and is used to improve the efficiency of the heart, to decrease hospitalization and to increase survival in these patients. The second is an ICD device, which monitors the heart rhythm and delivers a shock if it believes the heart rhythm is dangerous for the patient’s life.
ILS Hospitals also provides LVADs to patients with end-stage heart failure who are not eligible for a heart transplant. These devices assist the heart in pumping blood to the rest of the body so circulation is supported and heart function is more effective. They are key in preventing long-term recovery and overall health of the heart patient.
Our Services
- Cardiac resynchronization therapy: We do this to get the heart to contract better, so the pump works better. This translates into less hospitalization and improved survival.
- Implantable cardioverter defibrillator: We use ICDs to prevent cardiac deaths in high-risk patients. The device monitors the heart’s rhythm and delivers an electric shock when life-threatening situations arise.
- Left Ventricular Assist Device: Our team uses LVADs to treat patients with advanced heart failure who cannot undergo a heart transplant. They help to improve circulation and overall heart function.
Remote monitoring of Device performance: We offer continuous monitoring for implanted devices, which ensures timely adjustments and prevents malfunction.
