Dr. Nutan Kumar D M is an experienced Interventional Cardiologist in Bangalore with more than 15 years of medical and cardiology experience. His clinical training spans General Medicine and Cardiology, providing him with a comprehensive foundation for the diagnosis and treatment of complex cardiovascular conditions.
He holds MBBS, MD in General Medicine, DNB in General Medicine and DM in Cardiology qualifications from reputed medical institutions in India.
Dr. Nutan Kumar has extensive expertise in Interventional Cardiology and manages a wide range of cardiovascular conditions including coronary artery disease, structural heart disease, cardiac rhythm disorders and other complex heart conditions.
His interventional expertise includes radial angioplasty, complex percutaneous coronary intervention, optical coherence tomography, intravascular ultrasound and fractional flow reserve-guided coronary revascularization.
He is also experienced in structural and rhythm-related cardiac procedures including balloon mitral valvotomy, permanent pacemaker implantation, ICD implantation, CRT implantation and transcatheter aortic valve implantation or replacement.
Dr. Nutan Kumar has a special clinical interest in cardio-oncology. Cancer therapies such as chemotherapy, targeted therapy and radiation may affect cardiovascular health, and his expertise allows him to evaluate and manage patients who have existing heart disease or develop cardiac concerns during cancer treatment.
His experience also extends to cardiac care unit management and critical cardiology, where patients with acute and complex cardiovascular problems require close monitoring and timely intervention.
Before joining HCG, he held senior and departmental leadership roles across multiple healthcare institutions in Bangalore, including Hosmat Hospitals, Karunya Hrudayalaya, Aaxis Hospitals, Sri Jayadeva Institute of Cardiovascular Sciences and Research, Sparsh Hospital Yelahanka and Aveksha Hospital.
Dr. Nutan Kumar currently practises at HCG Hospital, Hebbal, Bengaluru, where he provides comprehensive cardiology and interventional cardiac care.
Dr. Nutan Kumar D M provides interventional cardiology care for patients with coronary artery disease, structural heart conditions and other cardiovascular disorders that may require minimally invasive catheter-based procedures.
He performs coronary angioplasty and percutaneous coronary intervention for selected patients with narrowed or blocked coronary arteries. These procedures aim to restore blood flow to the heart muscle and reduce symptoms related to coronary artery disease.
Dr. Nutan Kumar has expertise in radial angioplasty, where catheter-based coronary procedures are performed through an artery in the wrist when clinically appropriate.
He manages complex coronary artery disease using advanced PCI techniques based on the location, severity and complexity of arterial blockages.
Optical coherence tomography provides high-resolution imaging of coronary arteries and can help guide selected coronary interventions by providing detailed information about artery structure and stent placement.
Intravascular ultrasound is an advanced imaging technique used inside coronary arteries to evaluate vessel structure and assist in planning and optimising selected PCI procedures.
Fractional flow reserve assessment helps determine whether a coronary artery narrowing is significantly restricting blood flow and whether revascularization may be clinically beneficial.
Dr. Nutan Kumar performs balloon mitral valvotomy for selected patients with mitral valve narrowing. The catheter-based procedure helps improve blood flow across the narrowed mitral valve when clinically appropriate.
Permanent pacemakers may be implanted in patients with certain slow heart rhythms or electrical conduction abnormalities to help maintain an appropriate heart rate.
An implantable cardioverter defibrillator may be recommended for selected patients who are at increased risk of dangerous ventricular arrhythmias or sudden cardiac events.
Cardiac resynchronization therapy may be used in selected patients with heart failure and electrical conduction abnormalities to improve coordination of the heart's pumping function.
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation or replacement is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat selected patients with severe aortic valve disease without conventional open-heart valve replacement.
Dr. Nutan Kumar evaluates and manages coronary artery disease using medical therapy, risk-factor management and interventional procedures where clinically indicated.
He manages structural heart conditions involving the heart valves and other cardiac structures, including assessment for catheter-based interventions when appropriate.
Patients with abnormal heart rhythms are evaluated to identify the underlying electrical abnormality and determine whether medication, monitoring or device-based treatment is required.
Dr. Nutan Kumar provides cardiovascular evaluation and management for cancer patients who have existing heart conditions or develop cardiac complications related to chemotherapy, targeted therapy, radiation or other cancer treatments.
His expertise includes cardiac care unit and critical cardiology management for patients with acute and complex cardiovascular conditions requiring intensive monitoring and specialised cardiac treatment.
