Hi, my name is Dr. Joy M. Thomas. I'm a senior interventional cardiologist and electrophysiologist at the Apollo Hospital at Vanagaram. Today, I would like to talk to you about heart failure. As you may all be aware, uh India is a country which has the maximum uh number of patients with diabetes and hypertension, and all these go on to cause heart attack. And these heart attacks can lead a patient into a heart failure situation where the pumping function of the heart is reduced. And these can lead to sudden death and unexpected idiom uh admissions. There is ways of preventing this. And the best way to prevent this is to heed to simple symptoms like chest pain and breathing problem and keep a attend to them at the proper time so that we do angiograms and then do a necessary procedure, which may be and angioplasty or a bypass surgery.
