His interventional expertise includes coronary angiography, coronary angioplasty, coronary stenting, Rotablation, intravascular ultrasound, coronary imaging, pacemaker implantation, device closure procedures and balloon valvuloplasty.
His non-invasive cardiology practice includes 2D echocardiography, treadmill testing, Holter monitoring, transesophageal echocardiography and CT coronary angiography.
Dr. Narendra Hiregoudar currently practises at HCG Suchirayu Hospital in Hubli.
Coronary angiography uses contrast imaging to identify narrowing or blockage in the arteries supplying blood to the heart.
Coronary angioplasty is a catheter-based procedure used to open narrowed or blocked coronary arteries and may include placement of a stent.
Complex coronary intervention uses advanced techniques to treat challenging coronary artery blockages in appropriately selected patients.
Rotablation uses a specialised rotational device to modify heavily calcified plaque before angioplasty and stent placement.
IVUS uses an ultrasound probe inside the coronary artery to provide detailed information about vessel structure and support precise intervention planning.
OCT provides high-resolution images from inside the coronary arteries to help assess plaque and optimise selected stent procedures.
Pacemaker implantation places a cardiac device to help regulate selected abnormal or excessively slow heart rhythms.
ASD device closure uses a catheter-delivered device to close selected openings between the upper chambers of the heart.
PDA device closure treats a persistent abnormal connection between major blood vessels using a catheter-based closure device.
Balloon valvuloplasty uses a catheter-mounted balloon to widen selected narrowed heart valves.
Peripheral angioplasty uses catheter-based techniques to improve blood flow through narrowed arteries outside the heart.
2D echocardiography uses ultrasound to assess the chambers, valves and pumping function of the heart.
Holter monitoring continuously records the heart rhythm over an extended period to help identify intermittent rhythm abnormalities.
Transesophageal echocardiography provides detailed ultrasound images of the heart using a probe positioned in the oesophagus.
CT coronary angiography is a non-invasive imaging test used to assess coronary arteries for narrowing and other abnormalities.
