All possible tests can be carried out in our laboratory for cardiac patients.  The cardiology department provides personal treatment and long-term follow-up programs for hypertension, diabetes, obesity and fast metabolism problems, which are common among the general population.

  • Electrocardiography (ECG)
  • Holter Follow-Up (24 Hour ECG Registration)
  • Echocardiography (Transthoracic and Tracheoesophageal 3-Dimensional)
  • Ambulatory Blood Pressure Follow-Up
  • Exercise ECG Test
  • Tilt Test
  • Nuclear Cardiologic Operations
  • Pace Maker and Cardioverter Defibrator Follow-Up (ICD)

Catheterisation Laboratory

In addition to the diagnostic and preventive cardiology at Okan University Hospital, treatment and diagnosis services are provided for the diagnosis of coronary artery disease by an experienced team. The number of annual invasive operations of physicians working in the laboratory of our hospital is at the highest competence level. Physicians providing service at the laboratory of our hospital applies treatment and diagnosis methods such as balloon angioplasty, stent implantation, laser angioplasty, atherectomy and rotablator for the treatment of coronary artery diseases.

Our Hospital also provides diagnosis and treatment services for valvular heart disorders, pulmonary artery diseases and congenital cardiac diseases. Our physicians, who apply cardiac catheterisation operations, also perform treatments such as balloon valvuloplasty of mitral and other valvular heart disorders. Patients with innate cardiac orifices are treated through new special devices without applying any operations.

For the treatment and diagnosis of rythm disorders, our center follows the latest medical innovations. Permanent pace-makers and cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) implantations are applied in our center. The mechanisms of arrhythmias are administered through electrophysiological studies and eliminated through a quite reliable method known as “ablation”.
