At 95, most people are told to take it easy, but this grandfather’s heart had other plans. When he was brought to Promed Hospital, Chennai with a severe heart attack and triple artery blockages, the situation was critical.
Under the care of Dr. Arun Kalyanasundaram and his expert cardiac team, a Protected Angioplasty using the advanced Impella heart pump was performed, a device that keeps blood flowing even when the heart needs a rest.
In just three hours, all three major blockages were safely opened, and within days, he was breathing freely and smiling again. This story isn’t just about technology, it’s about trust, teamwork, and the belief that age should never be a barrier to care.
