About the department
The Department of Cardiology at the HELIOS Clinic Krefeld offers the full range of services in this medical focus. The department specializes in the treatment of heart failure, heart rhythm disorders, heart valve diseases and other heart pathologies. The department is headed by Prof. Dr. med. Heinrich Klues.
For the provision of emergency medical care, the department has a Chest Pain Unit. The department is equipped with the state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment for conducting various cardiac examinations: ECG, echocardiography, transesophageal echocardiography, spiroergometry, cardiac MRI, CT, cardiac catheterization, etc.
The department provides various treatment methods for heart failure. Quite often, a positive treatment result can be achieved with the help of drug therapy. Nevertheless, in severe forms of pathology, a pacemaker or defibrillator implantation is required. Another option is the use of an artificial heart system.
In addition, the diagnosis and treatment of all forms of cardiac arrhythmia (heart rhythm disorders) are carried out here. Naturally, the main treatment method is drug therapy, which is often accompanied by targeted myocardial ablation. The main goal of arrhythmia treatment is to improve the quality of life. An effective method for treating atrial fibrillation is atrial catheter ablation.
The treatment of mitral valve defects is provided with the modern method Mitra-Clip, which is a mitral valve reconstruction with a catheter and is an excellent alternative to open intervention. The procedure is performed under the control of ultrasound, without opening the thorax.
The department offers a wide range of outpatient services:
Diagnostics
- ECG, exercise ECG, long-term ECG
- Long-term blood pressure monitoring
- Echocardiography (ultrasound examination of the heart)
- Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE)
- Stress echocardiography
- Spiroergometry
- Pulmonary function testing
- Heart MRI (stress MRI and MRI at rest)
- Cardiac CT
- Cardiac catheterization (coronary angiography)
- Electrical cardioversion
- Monitoring of patients with pacemakers and defibrillators
- Laboratory tests
- Other diagnostic services
Treatment
- Heart failure
- Congenital and acquired heart defects
- Ischemic heart disease, including the indication for recanalization of chronically chronically occluded blood vessels
- Heart valve diseases, including the indication for minimally invasive interventions for the treatment of heart valves (TAVI, MitraClip)
- Cardiac arrhythmias
- Cardiomyopathies
- Care after heart transplantation and implantation of cardiac support systems
- Hypertension and heart diseases caused by hypertension
- Correction of risk factors for the development of cardiovascular diseases
- Primary and secondary prevention
- Other treatments
