When facing heart conditions that require a hospital admission, you need the right care, at the right time, in the right place.
Whether you’re experiencing concerning symptoms or managing a chronic heart condition, having access to comprehensive inpatient services can make all the difference in your treatment and outcomes. Our dedicated team is here to ensure you receive the highest standard of care during your hospital stay.
At HeartCare Toowoomba, we provide a comprehensive service while you are receiving inpatient care at St. Vincent’s Hospital Toowoomba. Each of these services is designed to give you the best possible outcomes, using the latest technology and techniques.
Managing your heart condition starts with a thorough clinical consultation. Our team will take the time to understand your symptoms, medical history, and any previous treatments you’ve had.
From there, we create a personalised care plan tailored to your specific heart condition. If required we involve other specialists to ensure you get the highest possible level of care. Throughout your hospital stay, we will closely monitor your progress, making adjustments to your treatment as needed to ensure the best possible care.
We use echocardiograms as a key diagnostic tool to assess heart function during your inpatient care. This non-invasive test uses ultrasound waves to produce detailed images of your heart, allowing Dr Anu to closely examine its structure, size, and performance. An echocardiogram is particularly useful in diagnosing conditions such as heart valve disorders, heart failure, or complications following a heart attack.
Performed while you’re in the care of St. Vincent’s Hospital Toowoomba, the procedure is painless and involves placing a small probe on your chest to capture real-time images of your heart.
Coronary angiography is a vital tool in diagnosing and treating heart conditions. This procedure involves using specialised imaging to get a detailed view of your coronary arteries, allowing us to detect any blockages or narrowing that could be affecting your heart’s function.
This is the most accurate diagnostic and treatment option for someone who presents with a heart attack and needs immediate evaluation of their coronary arteries to identify blockages or narrowing that could be restricting blood flow to the heart
Transoesophageal echocardiography (TOE) is a specialised form of ultrasound that provides detailed images of your heart’s structure and function. Unlike standard echocardiograms, TOE uses a small probe that is passed through your oesophagus, offering a closer, more accurate view of your heart.
This procedure is often used to diagnose and manage complex heart conditions, such as valve disease or congenital heart defects, allowing us to make precise decisions about your care.
When your heart is not beating in its normal rhythm (arrhythmia), it can have a significant impact on your health. DC Cardioversion is a procedure used to restore a normal heart rhythm by delivering a controlled electrical shock to your heart.
This treatment is commonly used for conditions like atrial fibrillation, ensuring that your heart beats regularly and effectively. By resetting your heart’s rhythm, we can help reduce the risk of complications associated with arrhythmias, such as stroke or heart failure.
