Pacemaker & Device Implantation Doctor in Kolkata
Dr. Kuntal Bhattacharya specialize in advanced cardiac device therapies designed to manage and treat heart rhythm disorders. Our Pacemaker & Device Services offer solutions for patients with arrhythmias, heart failure, and other conditions that affect the heart's electrical system. These life-saving devices are crucial in regulating heart function and improving overall quality of life.
Pacemaker
A Pacemaker is a small device implanted under the skin that helps regulate an abnormal heart rhythm (bradycardia). It sends electrical impulses to stimulate the heart when the natural rhythm is too slow. Pacemakers are highly effective in restoring normal heart function and reducing symptoms like fatigue, dizziness, and fainting. Dr. Bhattacharya offers expert pacemaker implantation and follow-up care, ensuring that each device is tailored to the patient’s needs.
Automatic Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (AICD)
An AICD is a device designed for patients at high risk of life-threatening arrhythmias, such as ventricular tachycardia or fibrillation. It continuously monitors the heart and delivers shocks when dangerous rhythms are detected, restoring normal heart function. AICDs are critical for preventing sudden cardiac arrest, and Dr. Bhattacharya provides advanced expertise in their placement and management.
Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT-P / CRT-D)
CRT-P (Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy with Pacemaker) and CRT-D (Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy with Defibrillator) are devices used to treat heart failure by improving the timing of heart contractions. These devices help synchronize the chambers of the heart, enhancing its pumping efficiency. CRT-D devices also provide defibrillation capabilities, protecting patients from sudden cardiac death. Dr. Bhattacharya ensures personalized care in selecting and implanting these devices for heart failure patients.
Conduction System Pacing (CSP)
Conduction System Pacing (CSP) is a new technique that directly stimulates the heart’s natural conduction system, offering a more physiologically aligned pacing option. CSP mimics the heart's natural electrical pathways, providing better outcomes compared to traditional pacing. Dr. Bhattacharya is at the forefront of this innovative technology, offering patients the latest advancements in cardiac care.
Leadless Pacemaker
The Leadless Pacemaker is a revolutionary device that eliminates the need for traditional pacemaker leads (wires). This small, self-contained device is implanted directly into the heart, reducing complications associated with leads, such as infections or fractures. It provides the same pacing benefits as a traditional pacemaker, but with a less invasive procedure. Dr. Bhattacharya specializes in this cutting-edge technology, offering a simpler, safer option for patients who require pacing therapy.
