• Lipid Disorders: Managing lipid disorders effectively lowers your risk of developing heart disease, stroke, and other cardiovascular complications later in life.
• Aortic Aneurysm: Aortic aneurysms can be silently progressive, so proactive screening, particularly if you have risk factors, is key to early intervention and preventing serious complications.
• Wolff-Parkinson-White Pattern: Regular heart health screenings can detect a Wolff-Parkinson-White pattern, a heart abnormality that can cause fast heartbeats. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial to prevent serious health problems.
• Supraventricular Tachycardia: Supraventricular tachycardia is a heart rhythm disorder that can be managed effectively to lower your risk of stroke and other cardiovascular issues, highlighting the importance of proactive heart health.
• Secondary Renovascular Hypertension: Early diagnosis of renovascular hypertension, a form of high blood pressure linked to kidney artery narrowing, is crucial for lowering your risk of serious cardiovascular events.

Taking control of your cardiovascular health involves knowing and managing your blood pressure and cholesterol, not smoking, regular physical activity, and a heart-healthy diet. These steps empower you to significantly reduce your risk of a heart attack.

What is a TAVR procedure?

TAVR, or Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement, is a groundbreaking, minimally invasive procedure to replace a narrowed aortic valve. Unlike traditional open-heart surgery, TAVR is performed through a catheter, leading to a much faster recovery for eligible patients.

What is a heart murmur?

A heart murmur is an extra sound heard when listening to the heart. Many murmurs are innocent and harmless; Dr. Davuluri is an expert at determining the cause, often using an echocardiogram to see if the murmur is related to a heart valve problem that needs monitoring or treatment.

What is the purpose of cardiac rehabilitation?

Cardiac rehabilitation is a medically supervised program of exercise and education designed to help patients recover from heart conditions like heart attacks, stents, or heart surgery. It strengthens the heart, reduces risk factors, and helps patients safely regain their confidence and quality of life.

What is a cardiac ablation procedure?

Cardiac ablation is a minimally invasive procedure to treat certain fast heart rhythms. A specialist uses catheters to locate and eliminate the problematic heart tissue using heat or cold energy, often resolving the arrhythmia.

What is a cardiac stress test?

A cardiac stress test evaluates how your heart functions during physical activity. You walk on a treadmill while your EKG and blood pressure are monitored. It's a key non-invasive tool to detect potential blockages in your coronary arteries.
