Cardiac Catheterization
Your heart is in good hands at Luminis Health. Our skilled cardiac and vascular specialists diagnose, treat and manage a wide range of heart diseases. And cardiac catheterization is one of our specialties.What Is Cardiac Catheterization?Cardiac catheterization is a procedure that lets us see inside your heart's blood vessels using a hollow tube called a "catheter." We thread the catheter from an artery in your arm or groin to your heart.Your doctor may order a cardiac catheterization if you have a cardiac condition or symptoms of heart disease. This procedure can:Check how well your heart works.Determine if you have blockages in any coronary (heart) arteries.Evaluate how your heart's valves work.Diagnose problems with your heart and figure out the best way to fix them.If needed, we can perform life-saving procedures during cardiac catheterization. These include:Angioplasty, in which we open a blocked artery with a tiny balloon.Stenting, in which we insert a device to keep the artery open for longer.Cardiac catheterization is a minimally invasive procedure. About 90% of the time, we use radial catheterization — the latest approach, in which the catheter goes into an artery in your arm. This method reduces your risk of bleeding and speeds up your recovery time.

Deneen Richmond President, LHDCMC [email protected] Dawn Ridley Vice President, LHDCMC Foundation Does healthcare mean a lot to you?
If you said yes, you probably love medical centers that provide a variety of healthcare services to community residents. But, what makes a medical center truly special are the stories of patients who receive quality healthcare. Those stories contribute to the legacy of a medical center.
Continuing our legacy of passionately caring for the health and well-being of the residents of Prince George's County and the region with state-of-the-art equipment and quality healthcare services is the mission of Luminis Health Doctors Community Medical Center Foundation.
Since 1991, the Foundation has raised funds for various healthcare programs and services for patients such as breast health, surgical services, and now behavioral health services. But none of this is possible without you.
If healthcare means a lot to you, share your love now.
