Covid-19 & Heart Health
According to a study published in the Oxford journal, nearly half of the patients hospitalized with severe COVID-19 have heart damage months after leaving the hospital.
People with pre-existing heart diseases can experience an increase in various heart conditions. As such, it is imperative that patients get their hearts checked after a successful recovery.
A chest imaging test might be helpful if you or a family member has experienced chest pain after infection with COVID-19, or had minor heart disease before the infection.
At Rela, we provide comprehensive heart-related healthcare, from checking your heart to providing appropriate treatment to ensuring your overall health.

Cardiac Catheterization is a diagnostic procedure to treat various cardiovascular conditions. Under this procedure a long, thin catheter gets inserted into the body via groin, arm or neck to locate narrowed or blocked arteries, measure oxygen and pressure, to check the functioning of right and left ventricles, to extract a tissue from the heart, diagnosing congenital heart ailments and also to study defects in heart valves.
It is also often used as a part of angiogram and angioplasty for interventional purposes.
What patients' say
I was admitted to Rela Institute after a massive heart attack. My experience with Dr. Ashok and the process that followed was one of the safest I have ever had. I felt confident throughout the angioplasty and stent insertion procedure. He was supportive and his words reassured me that I did not have a heart condition. My gratitude goes out to Rela and Dr.Ashok.

Am Mrs.Usha Moorthy 60yrs old. it was an emergency when we met him for the first time. I had a heart attack as well as diabetes too. After PCI when I met him for my review, he took his time to explain what he has done for me and given me enough confidence to go with. Thanks to the doctor for saving my life. I have routine health check-ups and visits. I strongly recommend Dr. Narendra Kumar for his politeness and patience to hear the problems and symptoms.
