Principal Director & HOD – Cardiology & Electrophysiology | Fortis Shalimar Bagh
Dr. Nityanand Tripathi is an experienced cardiologist with more than 21 years of experience in clinical cardiology, interventional cardiology and cardiac electrophysiology. He is the Principal Director & HOD Cardiology & Electrophysiology at Fortis Hospital, Shalimar Bagh, Delhi.
He completed his MBBS and MD (Medicine) from the Institute of Medical Sciences, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi, followed by DM (Cardiology) from King George Medical University, Lucknow.
His areas of expertise include complex coronary interventions, peripheral and carotid interventions, structural heart procedures, cardiac rhythm management, cardiac device implantation and advanced electrophysiology procedures.
Comprehensive interventional and electrophysiology procedures for complex cardiovascular conditions.
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.
Expert evaluation and treatment across a full spectrum of cardiovascular conditions.
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 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.

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.

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.

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.

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
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.

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.

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.
