Cardiologists diagnose, evaluate, and treat patients with diseases and defects of the heart and blood vessels (the cardiovascular system).
Cardiologists work with adult patients; pediatric cardiology is a separate specialty.
A cardiologist treats patients with conditions such as
- Angina (chest pain caused by narrowing of the coronary arteries)
- Arrhythmias, for example atrial fibrillation (irregular heartbeat)
- Heart murmurs due to heart valve disease
- Cardiomyopathy (heart muscle disease) with heart failure, including pulmonary
- Edema (accumulation of fluid)
- Coronary artery thrombosis or myocardial infarction (heart attack) is often associated with pressure
High blood pressure (hypertension) and high cholesterol - Diseases of the arteries (atherosclerosis, arteritis, atheroma)
- Hole in the heart and other forms of congenital heart disease in adult life, including transition of pediatric care and shared care of pregnant women with heart disease.
Much of the emphasis is on improving survival rates and quality of life after heart attacks, heart failure, or heart rhythm disorders; but cardiologists are also concerned with understanding disease processes and prevention.
The specialty is at the forefront of new therapies and technologies and emergency treatments are often required. It also includes end-of-life palliative care for heart disease.

Interventions performed by a cardiology specialist in Huatulco
- Pacemaker placement. A pacemaker is a small device that is placed under the skin of the chest to help control the heartbeat. It is used to help your heart beat more regularly if you have an irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia), particularly slow ones.
- Coronary angioplasty. It is a procedure used to open clogged heart arteries. Angioplasty uses a small balloon catheter that is inserted into a blocked blood vessel to help widen it and improve blood flow to the heart.
- Cardiac catheterization (Diagnosis and Therapeutics). It is a procedure used to diagnose and treat certain cardiovascular conditions. During cardiac catheterization, a long, thin tube called a catheter is inserted into an artery or vein in the groin, neck, or arm and threaded through blood vessels to the heart.
