Principal Director & HOD Cardiology & Electrophysiology
When searching for the best cardiologist in India, patients and families often look for more than a name. Experience, specialist training, clinical expertise, access to advanced cardiac procedures, and a patient-centred approach are all important factors. Dr. Nityanand Tripathi is an experienced Interventional Cardiologist and Cardiac Electrophysiologist with 31+ years of expertise at Fortis Hospital, Shalimar Bagh, New Delhi.
Comprehensive interventional cardiology and electrophysiology services at Fortis Hospital Shalimar Bagh.
The phrase “best cardiology treatment in India” can mean different things for different patients. The appropriate treatment depends on the patient's symptoms, medical history, diagnostic findings, severity of disease, age, risk factors and overall health.
Modern cardiology includes preventive evaluation, medication-based treatment, minimally invasive procedures, interventional cardiology, electrophysiology and structural heart interventions. As a leading cardiologist in India, Dr. Nityanand Tripathi provides specialist evaluation for a wide range of cardiovascular conditions and develops treatment plans according to the patient's individual clinical requirements.
From coronary angiography and angioplasty to electrophysiology studies, pacemaker implantation, complex coronary interventions and TAVI/TAVR – every treatment plan is personalized according to the patient’s condition, investigation reports and clinical needs.
Expert evaluation and treatment across a full spectrum of cardiovascular conditions by one of the leading cardiologists in India.
Coronary artery disease occurs when the arteries supplying blood to the heart become narrowed or blocked. Depending on the severity and location, treatment may include lifestyle modification, medication or interventional procedures including complex LMCA, bifurcation and CTO interventions.

Coronary angiography is a diagnostic procedure used to visualize the coronary arteries and identify significant narrowing or blockages. It helps the cardiology team understand the location and extent of disease and plan further treatment.
Learn More
Coronary angioplasty (PCI) is a minimally invasive procedure used to restore blood flow through narrowed or blocked coronary arteries. Advanced techniques are used for complex lesions including left main, bifurcation and chronic total occlusions.

Sudden Cardiac Death is an unexpected loss of heart function caused by an electrical problem. It is a medical emergency. Prompt recognition and treatment can be life-saving. Device therapy may be recommended in selected high-risk patients.

A pacemaker helps regulate certain slow or irregular heart rhythms. Conventional and leadless (Micra) pacemakers may be recommended for selected patients with abnormalities of the heart’s electrical conduction system.

An Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD/AICD) detects and treats certain potentially dangerous ventricular arrhythmias. It is recommended for patients who meet specific clinical criteria.
Learn More
An EP study evaluates the electrical activity of the heart. Radiofrequency ablation can treat arrhythmias such as PSVT, atrial flutter, atrial fibrillation and certain ventricular tachycardias using 3D mapping guidance when appropriate.

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI/TAVR) is a catheter-based procedure to replace a diseased aortic valve without open-heart surgery. Suitability depends on detailed multidisciplinary evaluation.
Learn MoreNot every coronary blockage is straightforward. Some patients require specialized interventional techniques.
Some patients have heavily calcified arteries, chronic total occlusions, left main disease or complex bifurcation lesions. These cases may require detailed assessment and specialized interventional techniques.
CTO Intervention: A Chronic Total Occlusion (CTO) is a coronary artery that has been completely blocked for an extended period. CTO interventions can require advanced catheter-based techniques and careful assessment of coronary anatomy.
LMCA Intervention: The Left Main Coronary Artery (LMCA) supplies blood to a major portion of the heart muscle. Disease in this artery requires careful evaluation and treatment planning.
Rotablation: Rotational atherectomy may be used in selected patients with heavily calcified coronary arteries to facilitate treatment of difficult lesions.
Intravascular Imaging & Physiology: Techniques such as IVUS, OCT, FFR and iFR provide detailed information about coronary arteries and help guide selected interventions. Dr. Tripathi’s expertise also includes Intravascular Lithotripsy (IVL).
