Comprehensive Heart Care at Fortis Hospital Shalimar Bagh

Heart conditions can range from coronary artery disease and blocked arteries to abnormal heart rhythms, structural heart conditions and problems requiring cardiac devices.

Dr. Nityanand Tripathi provides comprehensive cardiac evaluation and treatment with expertise in interventional cardiology and electrophysiology. His practice includes both routine cardiac care and advanced procedures for patients requiring specialized evaluation.

From coronary angiography and angioplasty to electrophysiology procedures, pacemaker implantation, complex coronary interventions and TAVI/TAVR, treatment is planned according to the patient's condition, investigations and individual clinical requirements.

Cardiology Specialities

Expert evaluation and treatment across a full spectrum of cardiovascular conditions.

Coronary Artery Disease

Coronary Artery Disease

Coronary artery disease occurs when the arteries supplying blood to the heart become narrowed or blocked. It may cause symptoms such as chest discomfort, breathlessness or reduced exercise tolerance. Timely cardiac evaluation can help determine the appropriate treatment approach.

Coronary Angiography

Coronary Angiography

Coronary angiography is a diagnostic procedure used to visualize the coronary arteries and identify narrowing or blockages. It helps cardiologists assess coronary artery disease and determine whether further treatment may be required.

Learn More
Coronary Angioplasty

Coronary Angioplasty

Coronary angioplasty is a minimally invasive procedure used to restore blood flow through narrowed or blocked coronary arteries. Advanced techniques may be used for selected complex coronary lesions.

Learn More
Sudden Cardiac Arrest

Sudden Cardiac Arrest

Sudden cardiac arrest is an unexpected loss of heart function caused by an electrical problem that prevents the heart from pumping blood effectively. It is a medical emergency requiring immediate treatment. Prompt recognition, CPR and defibrillation can be critical.

Learn More
Pacemaker Implantation

Pacemaker Implantation

A pacemaker is a cardiac device used to help regulate certain slow or irregular heart rhythms. Pacemaker therapy may be recommended for selected patients with abnormalities of the heart's electrical conduction system.

Learn More
AICD / ICD Implantation

AICD / ICD Implantation

An Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD/AICD) is a cardiac device designed to detect and treat certain potentially dangerous ventricular arrhythmias. It may be recommended for patients who meet specific clinical criteria.

Learn More
Electrophysiology & RFA

Electrophysiology & Radiofrequency Ablation

An electrophysiology (EP) study evaluates the electrical activity of the heart and helps identify abnormal heart rhythms. Radiofrequency ablation can be used in selected patients to treat arrhythmias such as PSVT, atrial flutter, atrial fibrillation and certain ventricular tachycardias.

Learn More
TAVI / TAVR

TAVI / TAVR

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation or Replacement (TAVI/TAVR) is a catheter-based procedure used to replace a diseased aortic valve without conventional open-heart valve replacement surgery. Patient suitability depends on detailed cardiac evaluation.

Learn More
Leadless Pacemaker – Micra

Leadless Pacemaker – Micra

A leadless pacemaker is a small pacing device implanted directly inside the heart without conventional pacing leads. Micra, manufactured by Medtronic, is an example of a leadless pacemaker system that may be considered for appropriately selected patients.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about cardiac care and Dr. Nityanand Tripathi’s practice.

Dr. Nityanand Tripathi is a cardiologist with more than 21 years of experience in clinical cardiology, interventional cardiology and electrophysiology. He is the Principal Director & HOD Cardiology & Electrophysiology at Fortis Shalimar Bagh.
He evaluates and manages a wide range of cardiovascular conditions, including coronary artery disease, abnormal heart rhythms, structural heart conditions and conditions requiring cardiac devices or interventional procedures.
Yes. His areas of expertise include coronary angioplasty and complex coronary interventions, including LMCA, bifurcation and CTO interventions.
TAVI/TAVR is among his areas of expertise. Whether the procedure is appropriate depends on the patient's valve condition, overall health, cardiac investigations and clinical evaluation.
Sudden cardiac arrest occurs when the heart suddenly stops pumping blood effectively, usually because of an electrical disturbance in the heart. It is a medical emergency requiring immediate intervention.
A pacemaker primarily helps manage certain slow or irregular heart rhythms. An ICD is designed to detect and treat certain potentially dangerous ventricular arrhythmias. The appropriate device depends on the patient's specific cardiac condition.
Electrophysiology focuses on diagnosing and treating abnormal heart rhythms. During an EP study, the electrical activity of the heart is assessed. Radiofrequency ablation may be performed in selected patients to treat the source of an abnormal rhythm.
A leadless pacemaker is a compact cardiac pacing device implanted directly inside the heart without conventional pacing leads. It may be considered for appropriately selected patients following cardiac evaluation.
A cardiology consultation may be appropriate if you experience symptoms such as recurrent chest discomfort, breathlessness, palpitations, unexplained fatigue, dizziness or fainting. If symptoms suggest a medical emergency, seek immediate emergency medical care.
Selected complex coronary lesions can be treated using advanced angioplasty techniques. The appropriate treatment depends on the location and severity of the blockage, coronary anatomy, symptoms and overall health.
