Cardiologists are doctors who identify, treat and help you manage conditions like angina, heart attack, heart rhythm problems, high blood pressure, peripheral artery disease (PAD) and stroke. These cardiologists from Minneapolis Heart Institute® bring heart health care to Crosby area residents. 
AnginaAngina is chest pain caused by poor blood flow through the blood vessels of the heart muscle. Learn more about angina in our health encyclopedia or heart health manual.
Heart attackHeart attack happens when an artery that feeds your heart muscle becomes blocked with plaque (fatty deposits) or by a clot. When the blood cannot flow to the heart, damage or death to the heart muscle may occur.
Heart rhythm problemsArrhythmia or dysrhythmia is an irregular heartbeat or rhythm. There are many kinds. Learn more about heart rhythm problems in our heart health manual.
High blood pressureBlood pressure is the amount of pressure within the walls of your arteries. High blood pressure is increased pressure against artery walls. Learn more about high blood pressure in our heart health manual.
Peripheral artery disease (PAD)Peripheral artery disease (PAD) occurs when plaque clogs the arteries in your legs, reducing blood flow to your legs and feet. 
Cardiac device clinic: Pacemaker and ICD follow-up programIf a pacemaker or ICD (implantable cardioverter defibrillator) helps to regulate your heartbeat, we can help you make sure your cardiac device is working properly. Our experts can evaluate your cardiac device and adjust settings so that you benefit the most. Cardiac perfusion scan (heart blood flow test)This test goes beyond the traditional exercise stress test by producing images of the heart's blood flow at rest and during exercise. Echocardiogram (heart ultrasound)An echocardiogram is a test that uses sound waves to create a moving picture of the heart. Exercise stress testAn exercise stress test is a screening tool to test the effect of exercise on your heart. It provides an overall look at the health of your heart.  Nuclear Cardiology (heart function test)Nuclear cardiology tests can determine if areas of the heart muscle are receiving good or poor blood supply.  Women's heart healthFour out of five Minnesota women are at risk for heart disease. This program tailors cardiovascular care to fit the specific needs of women. Stress echocardiogramStress echocardiography is a test that uses ultrasound imaging to determine how the heart muscles respond to stress. It is mainly used to diagnose and evaluate coronary artery disease. 
Holter/Event monitoringThis type of monitor will record your heart rhythm during your everyday activities. For this test, you will wear a portable EKG machine. You will have the monitor for 24 or 48 hours. Heart Failure ClinicThe Center for Advanced Heart Failure Treatment brings together a team who specializes in heart failure and understands how to manage it. It offers a full range of treatments including stem cell therapy, specialized surgeries, ventricular assist devices (VAD), and heart transplants.
PacemakerWhen you have a rhythm problem with your heart (usually when it beats too slowly or if both sides of your heart don't beat together), you may need a pacemaker. A pacemaker is a medical device that can help your heart beat regularly. |
