EECP (Enhanced External Counterpulsation) therapy is a non-invasive medical treatment that helps to improve blood flow and circulation in the body. The treatment involves the use of inflatable cuffs that are wrapped around the legs and buttocks of the patient. These cuffs inflate and deflate in sync with the patient’s heartbeat, which helps to increase the amount of blood flowing to the heart and throughout the body.
The goal of EECP therapy is to stimulate the formation of new blood vessels, which can help to improve blood flow and reduce the symptoms of various cardiovascular conditions. The treatment is typically administered in a series of sessions, which can last anywhere from 35 to 60 minutes each. Patients may require multiple sessions over several weeks to achieve the best results.
EECP therapy is considered a safe and effective treatment option for patients with various cardiovascular conditions, including angina, heart failure, and coronary artery disease. It is often used as an alternative to more invasive treatments such as surgery or angioplasty, and can also be used in conjunction with other therapies to help improve overall cardiovascular health.
Glasgow Medical Center Al Shafar Building 7 Suite 215 Al Wasl Road Jumeirah 1, Dubai.
Dr. Annie Thomas Varughese is a highly experienced EECP expert in Dubai, having more than 22+ years of experience.
I am an Interventional Cardiologist trained at The Texas Heart Institute in Houston, Texas. It is truly a privilege and an honor to bring before you my hopes and dreams for a brighter cardiovascular future for the people of the UAE and beyond as I do feel that Dubai is the Center of Health and Wellness not only for the MENA but also now globally with influence worldwide.
As an Interventional Cardiologist with special focus on Preventive Cardiology, I am now initiating a Cardiovascular Center of Excellence for Glasgow medical centre to help facilitate success in the delivery of Cardiovascular Care. I have been in practice in the USA for the past 22 years and am passionate about preventing and reversing diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
I am honored to present to you my heart’s vision regarding health and wellness as well as in the much needed realm of research and education to bring higher levels of care throughout our clinics and hospital systems in the UAE. I am a Professor of Medical Humanities at Baylor University in the USA, and I love to educate worldwide about the prevention and reversal of diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
My love for the people of the UAE is very strong and I am dedicated to bring health and healing and happiness to hearts here as we envision a bright future of pursuing excellence in the delivery of healthcare in the UAE and beyond.
My vision is that of bringing awareness regarding three Devastating Entities that affect Men and Women Worldwide
As Past Chair of The American Heart Association Go Red For Women for 2014-2015, I can truly say that The AHA touches the world regarding research and development in the realms of prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease. We now know so much about heart attack and stroke due to intense teaching regarding risk factors and modification of risk.
We also know that some disease states show no warning and cause sudden death. My goal is to bring awareness of oxidative stress, diabetes, heart attack, stroke, and sudden arrhythmic death that takes the lives of thousands of men and women worldwide every year.
Vascular aging, a determinant factor for cardiovascular disease and health status is now viewed as a modifiable risk factor.
Impaired endothelial vasodilation (or dilation of arteries) is a early hallmark of arterial aging that precedes the clinical manifestations of vascular dysfunction.
This is the first step to cardiovascular disease and influencing vascular outcomes.
In the current worldwide crisis of Post-COVID-19, endothelial dysfunction and the lack thereof of sufficient Nitric Oxide appear to play a significant role in the morbidity and mortality of those infected by SARS-CoV-2. Endothelial dysfunction is hallmarked by suppressed endothelial nitric oxide synthase and subsequent nitric oxide deficiency. Restoring nitric oxide, independent of eNOS, may counter endothelins and improve pulmonary vasodilation as well as antithrombotic and antiviral activity.
The preservation of endothelial function is thought to be an essential determinant of healthy aging.
Endothelial Function Testing is done easily and painlessly in the office setting and can be scheduled quickly and without delay. Testing is usually done after age 30.
The Preventive Cardiovascular Wellness Program of ADVANCED CARDIOVASCULAR CARE CENTER USA/ Dubai will offer services and product lines that will enhance the production of Nitric Oxide and therefore improve Endothelial Function.
Another valuable tool In our armamentarium is External Counter Pulsation (ECP) Therapy which is known to be a valuable therapeutic option for patients with Coronary Artery Disease, but the mechanism of action by which this technique exerts favorable results can now be offered to the “over 30” generation as a viable option for the prevention and treatment of endothelial dysfunction and thus diminish vascular aging. ECP can also improve athletic performance and can be a mainstay for the cardiovascular fitness of competitive sports teams and individuals.
Developed at Harvard in the early 1950s to enhance the development of coronary collateral circulation, ECP has now been shown in multiple clinical trials to benefit to not only vascular disease patients but also healthy subjects such as athletes in the area of exercise recovery.
This mechanical increase of oxygenated blood flow has documented proven improvements in persons with;
External Counterpulsation Therapy ( ECP Therapy) has documented great benefit for many cardiac patients in several credible, peer-reviewed journals such as the New England Journal of Medicine and the Journal American College of Cardiology.
Oplus is India’s 1st choice for the nonsurgical cardiac EECP treatment center.
In comparison to Bypass Surgery or Stents, it is more affordable.
Patients experience increased alertness and vigor after each session no negative effects.
With EECP there is no discomfort associated with this non-surgical procedure .
