On World Hypertension Day, let’s remember: numbers change before symptoms do.

High blood pressure often develops silently, without early warning signs. Regular monitoring can help detect changes early and reduce the risk of serious heart and vascular complications.

Know your numbers. Protect your heart.

How many steps are really enough for your heart?

It’s not always about hitting 10,000.
Research shows 7,000–10,000 steps a day may be the sweet spot for better heart health.

Start small. Stay consistent. Walk smart.

🫀 ప్రాణాలను కాపాడే అత్యాధునిక గుండె చికిత్స – చెన్నై అపోలోలో నమ్మకంతో

గుండె యొక్క సున్నితమైన భాగాలను అతి చిన్న ట్యూబ్ (కాథెటర్) ద్వారా ఖచ్చితంగా చేరుకొని, సమస్యలను గుర్తించి సరిచేసే ఇంటర్వెన్షనల్ కార్డియాలజీ నిపుణుల బృందం నిర్వహించిన ఒక సవాలుతో కూడిన చికిత్స 👇

👴 81 ఏళ్ల వృద్ధుడు
➡️ 10 సంవత్సరాల క్రితం మైట్రల్ వాల్వ్ శస్త్రచికిత్స జరిగింది
➡️ ఇప్పుడు మళ్లీ వాల్వ్ పనితీరు దెబ్బతింది
➡️ శ్వాస తీసుకోవడంలో ఇబ్బంది, మూర్ఛ, గుండె ఆగే ప్రమాదం

👉 సాధారణంగా: మళ్లీ పెద్ద ఓపెన్ హార్ట్ సర్జరీ అవసరం
👉 కానీ ఈ వయసులో: ప్రమాదం చాలా ఎక్కువ

⚡ తీసుకున్న ధైర్యమైన నిర్ణయం:
ఆధునిక వైద్య సాంకేతికతను వినియోగిస్తూ,
కార్డియాలజీ నిపుణుడు డా. దామోదరన్ మార్గదర్శకత్వంలో,
ఛాతీ తెరవకుండా ఒక అత్యాధునిక చికిత్స చేయబడింది

✔️ ఛాతీ తెరవకుండా
✔️ పాత వాల్వ్ తొలగించకుండా
✔️ రక్తనాళం ద్వారా

💡 Transcatheter Mitral Valve-in-Valve Replacement విజయవంతంగా నిర్వహించబడింది
👉 29 mm Edwards SAPIEN కొత్త వాల్వ్ అమర్చబడింది
అంతటితో ఆగలేదు…
గుండె విద్యుత్ లోపం (Complete Heart Block) కారణంగా
👉 వెంటనే Permanent Pacemaker అమర్చబడింది

✅ ఫలితం?
✔️ కొత్త వాల్వ్ సక్రమంగా పనిచేస్తోంది
✔️ గుండె పనితీరు సాధారణమైంది
✔️ రోగి సురక్షితంగా కోలుకున్నారు

⸻

💡 ఈ చికిత్స చెప్పే సందేశం:
👉 వయసు అడ్డంకి కాదు
👉 ఓపెన్ సర్జరీ ప్రమాదం ఉన్నవారికీ పరిష్కారం ఉంది
👉 వైద్య సాంకేతికత చికిత్స విధానాలను మార్చుతోంది

✨ ఒక మాటలో:
“మళ్లీ శస్త్రచికిత్స చేయలేని పరిస్థితుల్లో కూడా,
చిన్న కాథెటర్ ద్వారా ప్రాణాలను కాపాడవచ్చు.”

🫀 உயிரை மீட்டு எடுக்கும் அதி நவீன இதய சிகிச்சை – நம்பிக்கையுடன் சென்னை அப்பல்லோவில்.

இதய பகுதிகளை துல்லியமான பல்வேறு கருவிகள் & மருந்துகள் உள்ளடக்கிய மிகமிகச் சிறிய ட்யூப்கள் மூலம் பாதிப்பான இடங்களை கண்டறிந்து சீராக்குவதில் நிபுணத்துவம் நிறைந்த நிபுணர்கள் குழு (interventional cardiology)நிகழ்த்திய ஒரு சவாலான சிகிச்சை முறை 👇

81 வயது முதியவர், 10 ஆண்டுகளுக்கு
முன்னர் இதய மைட்ரல் வால்வு அறுவை சிகிச்சை செய்யப்பட்டவர்…
மீண்டும் வால்வு செயலிழப்பு, மூச்சு திணறல்,மயக்கம், இதய துடிப்பு நிற்கும் அபாயம்…
👉 சாதாரணமாக இது “மீண்டும் பெரிய அறுவை சிகிச்சை” தேவைப்படும் நிலை.
👉 ஆனால் இந்த வயதில், அறுவை சிகிச்சை அபாயம் மிகவும் அதிகம்.
⚡ எடுத்த முடிவு – மருத்துவ முன்னேற்றத்தின் சக்தியால், மருத்துவ குழுவானது, இதய மருத்துவ நிபுணர் தாமோதரன் வழிகாட்டலுடன் துணிச்சலான, உயிருக்கு சவால் விடும் நிலைகளை கவனமாக கையாளும் விதத்திலான அதிநவீன சிகிச்சை செய்யும் முடிவு எடுத்தது:
✔️ மார்பு திறக்காமல்
✔️ பழைய வால்வை அகற்றாமல்
✔️ ரத்த நாளம் வழியாக
Transcatheter Mitral Valve-in-Valve Replacement செய்யப்பட்டது
👉 29 mm Edwards SAPIEN புதிய வால்வு ஒன்றும் வெற்றிகரமாக பொருத்தப்பட்டது.
🔋 அதில் முடிவில்லை…
இதய மின்சார கோளாறு (Complete Heart Block) காரணமாக குறைந்த நாடி துடிப்பை சரி செய்ய
👉 இதய துடிப்பு கருவி (Permanent Pacemaker) நிரந்தரமாக இதயத்தில் உள்ளே உடனே பொருத்தப்பட்டது.
✅ முடிவு?
✔️ புதிய வால்வு துல்லியமாக செயல்படுகிறது
✔️ இதய செயல்பாடு மீண்டும் சீரானது.
✔️ நோயாளி பாதுகாப்பாக மீண்டார்.

இந்த சிகிச்சை மூலம் அறிவது
👉 “வயது ஒரு தடையாக இல்லை”
👉 “திறந்த வழி அறுவை சிகிச்சையால் அபாயம் அதிகமான நோயாளிகளுக்கும் தீர்வு இருக்கிறது”
👉 “மருத்துவ தொழில்நுட்பம், அறுவை சிகிச்சையை மாற்றி வருகிறது”
💡 ஒரு வரியில்
“மீண்டும் அறுவை சிகிச்சை செய்ய முடியாத நிலை கூட,
ஒரு மிகச்சிறிய ட்யூப் (கத்தீட்டர்) வழி சிகிச்சை மூலம் சரி செய்ய முடியும்.”

Silent heart attacks can happen without clear warning signs. Mild fatigue, breathlessness, or slight discomfort are often ignored. Regular checkups and early detection can save your life.

07/04/2026

Silent heart risks are easy to ignore…
But deadly when you do.

It doesn’t always start with severe pain.
Sometimes it’s just fatigue.
A little breathlessness.
A discomfort you brush off.

And that’s exactly what makes it dangerous.

This World Health Day 2026, don’t wait for a heart attack to take action.
Listen early. Act early. Get checked.

Because when it comes to your heart—
ignoring the signs can cost everything.
