Cardiology is the specialty that is dedicated not only to the treatment of cardiovascular diseases, but also to its prevention.
Preventing, diagnosing early and treating effectively as cardiovascular diseases, has equally positive repercussions in the prevention and treatment of vascular brain diseases.
The progressive gain in efficacy in the treatment results from the appearance of new drugs and the development of intervention techniques such as percutaneous coronary angioplasty in the treatment of ischemic heart disease, the implantation of valvular prostheses by percutaneous route in the treatment of valvular disease, dispensing with procedures in cases higher surgical risk, or the implantation of sophisticated pacemakers and cardioverter / defibrillators in the treatment of heart failure.
This whole set of resources, in constant improvement, always associated with changes in habits and lifestyles, can improve quality and prolong life, in a very reduced way.

A recovery plan is drawn up based on risk stratification, using physiotherapy, occupational therapy, hydrotherapy, psychology, nutrition and physical exercise in general.

Post-COVID19 Check-up Consultation (Internal Medicine – Dr. Eduarda Comenda)
