Apollo Hospitals, Jubilee Hills, on Friday announced that it has received Comprehensive Chest Pain Center Certification from American Heart Association (AHA).
The AHA certification recognises hospitals that demonstrate standards in rapid assessment and treatment of chest pain, particularly for acute and life-threatening
heart attacks such as STEMI (ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction), a press release said.
The certification reflects the hospital’s ability to ensure patients experiencing acute cardiac conditions receive timely, life-saving interventions, Dr D P Suresh, incoming volunteer co-chair of the AHA’s International Committee, said.
