National Medical Research Center of Cardiology named after Academician E. I. Chazov

Clinic Advantages

• Innovative technologies and equipment: The Center is equipped with world-class devices, ensuring effective and comfortable diagnostics of cardiovascular diseases and the selection of optimal therapy.

• Wide range of diagnostics: The Center conducts examinations for hypertension, pulmonary hypertension, arrhythmias, microvascular angina, syncope, sleep apnea, lipid disorders, amyloidosis, heart failure, myocarditis, and more. Advanced diagnostic methods include echocardiography, vascular ultrasound, MRI, CT, scintigraphy, as well as genetic and immunological testing.

• Unique therapeutic interventions: The Center offers ablation (cryo- and radiofrequency), endovascular procedures (angioplasty, stenting), transcatheter valve replacement, MitraClip, LVAD, coronary bypass surgery, and other advanced interventions.

• International recognition and medical tourism: The Center is well known worldwide — in 1975, the world’s first intracoronary thrombolysis was performed here. Programs include:

  • Check-up in 1–2 days (inpatient or day hospital);

  • Diagnosis and treatment according to international standards with a personalized approach;

  • Support for applications and consultations for international patients.

• Telemedicine: Since 2003, the Center has provided doctor-to-doctor consultations via secure telemedicine platforms, as well as patient-to-doctor online consultations through a personal account, including video calls and chat.

• Cardiac rehabilitation: A multidisciplinary program includes patient schools, exercise sessions, nutritional and psychological support, smoking cessation programs, and remote training under physician supervision.

• Scientific and educational activities: The Center trains highly qualified professionals through residency, postgraduate studies, and a simulation center. It also hosts dissertation councils in cardiology, surgery, and radiology — 87 dissertations have been defended in the past five years.

Inpatient Care

The Center’s inpatient department is organized with maximum comfort and patient safety in mind. Both planned and emergency hospitalizations are available. Planned admissions are carried out daily (except weekends), while emergency patients are accepted around the clock.

Patients have access to modern wards of different comfort levels, including private rooms. Each unit is equipped for continuous monitoring, complex interventions, and intensive care.

The inpatient department unites therapeutic, surgical, and rehabilitation units. It provides:

• high-tech heart and vascular surgeries,

• endovascular procedures (stenting, angioplasty, transcatheter valve replacement),

• ablation for arrhythmias,

• implantation of pacemakers and ventricular assist devices,

• bypass and reconstructive surgeries.

Patients may choose treatment in a 24-hour inpatient setting or in a day hospital under comprehensive diagnostic programs (Check-up). The Center also actively welcomes international patients, offering a full cycle of care — from diagnosis and treatment to rehabilitation.
