• Endotracheal intubation, HFO ventilation, and heart failure therapy to support patients with respiratory or heart-related issues
• IABP (intra-aortic balloon pump) insertion for patients with severe heart failure, Transesophageal ECHO, and right heart catheterization to diagnose and manage various cardiac conditions
• Coronary Angiography (both radial and femoral approaches) to assess the blood flow and identify blockages in coronary arteries, with over 1000 procedures performed to date
