Amritsar, September 25, 2026: To mark World Heart Day, Livasa Hospital, Amritsar on Friday announced a preventive cardiac care initiative-‘Screen your heart, save your heart’.
During a press conference today, hospital senior cardiac experts including Dr. (Prof.) Rakesh Sudan, Chief of Cardiac Surgery, Dr. Anil Sharma, Senior Consultant–Interventional Cardiology and Dr. Arjun Ved Gupta, Senior Consultant – Interventional Cardiology highlighted the importance of regular screening, recognising warning signs and seeking timely medical care.
They also discussed the changing profile of cardiovascular disease, key risk factors, warning signs and advances in cardiac care.
Dr. Rakesh Sudan said,“Heart disease is no longer limited to older age groups. With rising risk factors such as diabetes, hypertension, obesity, stress and sedentary lifestyles, timely screening has become increasingly important. Regular health checks and early medical consultation can help identify risks before they become serious.”
“Preventive cardiology begins with understanding your risk. People with diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, smoking history or a family history of heart disease should be particularly mindful of regular cardiac assessments. Timely diagnosis can make a significant difference in treatment outcomes. “said Dr. Anil Sharma”
Dr. Arjun Ved Gupta said that cardiac care today is becoming increasingly precise and patient-specific. Advanced imaging and interventional techniques help doctors assess coronary disease more accurately and plan treatment accordingly.
Our focus is to provide accessible, advanced cardiac care backed by experienced specialists, modern infrastructure and a strong multidisciplinary team, informed Dr. Rajiv Kundra, Facility Director, Livasa Hospital Amritsar.
