Fortis Hospital, Nagarbhavi today launched an advanced State-of the-Art Philips Azurion 7 C12 Cath Lab facility for faster and timely diagnosis and treatment related to interventional cardiology and cardiovascular surgeries. The state-of-the-art Cath Lab was inaugurated by Shri. C. N. Ashwath Narayan (Honourable Minister of Skill Development, Entrepreneurship and Livelihood of Karnataka) along with Shri. M Mahadevaiah (District & Session Judge and Head of Legal Cell) in the presence of Dr Vivek Jawali (Chairman- Cardiac Sciences, Fortis Hospitals, Bengaluru), Dr. C Prabhakar Koregol (Senior Consultant – Interventional Cardiology, Fortis Hospital, Nagarbhavi) and Mr. Akshay Oleti (Business Head, Fortis Hospitals, Bengaluru).

The high-end version of Philips AZURION 7C12 Monoplane Cath Lab has cutting-edge technologies with an integrated Instantaneous Wave-Free Ratio-IFR (a trans-lesion pressure ratio measured during the wave-free period reducing the risk of Hyperemia agents). It also has a unique advanced interventional tool like DYNAMIC CORONARY ROADMAP (DCR), which creates a dynamic, motion-compensated, real time view of the coronary arteries which automatically adjusts on 2D fluoroscopy, providing continuous and specific visual feedback on positioning of wires, catheters and devices during Percutaneous Coronary Intervention, hence reducing contact with patients. The Cath Lab will also provide patients with enhanced care, accurate interventions, effective treatment alternatives and minimal radiation exposure.
