Echocardiography & ECG
On-Site Cardiac Echo and ECG in Ramgarh — Supporting Cardiology & Anaesthesia
Prime Hospital offers on-site echocardiography (cardiac ultrasound) and ECG services, essential for evaluating heart structure and function before surgery, in cardiac emergencies, and for monitoring known heart disease. Our in-house Cath Lab further supports patients requiring angiography or angioplasty — all without leaving Ramgarh.
- Transthoracic Echocardiography (TTE) — heart structure and function
- ECG (12-lead) — available 24×7 including emergencies
- Pre-operative cardiac evaluation for all surgical patients
- Valvular heart disease assessment — stenosis, regurgitation
- Left ventricular (LV) function & ejection fraction
- Pericardial effusion and tamponade evaluation
- In-house Cath Lab for angiography and angioplasty
Procedures
Echocardiography & ECG Services at Prime Hospital
Transthoracic Echocardiography (TTE)
Two-dimensional and Doppler cardiac ultrasound to assess heart chambers, valves, wall motion, and ejection fraction — non-invasive and painless.
12-Lead ECG
Electrocardiogram for detection of arrhythmias, myocardial infarction (heart attack), conduction defects, and pre-operative cardiac screening. Available 24×7.
Pre-operative Cardiac Evaluation
Echo + ECG combination study required before major surgeries to assess cardiac risk and anaesthetic fitness.
Valvular Heart Disease Assessment
Doppler echocardiography to measure severity of mitral stenosis, aortic regurgitation, and other valvular conditions.
LV Function & Ejection Fraction
Quantification of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) — essential for heart failure management and monitoring.
Pericardial Effusion
Rapid echo assessment for pericardial fluid — guiding emergency treatment of cardiac tamponade.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Is echocardiography available at Prime Hospital Ramgarh?
Yes — transthoracic echocardiography (cardiac echo) is available on-site at Prime Hospital. No need to travel to Ranchi or Patna for a heart scan. Call +91 94303-92033 to book.
What is the difference between an ECG and an echocardiogram?
An ECG records the electrical activity of the heart (rhythm and conduction). An echocardiogram is an ultrasound of the heart — it shows the heart's structure, valve function, and pumping ability. Both are often done together for a complete cardiac evaluation.
Do I need a doctor's referral for an ECG or echo?
A doctor's prescription is recommended, especially for echocardiography. For emergency ECGs, walk-ins are accepted 24×7.
Does Prime Hospital have a Cath Lab?
Yes — Prime Hospital has an in-house Cath Lab for coronary angiography and angioplasty, supported by our cardiology team. Echocardiography and ECG are performed as part of the pre-cath and post-cath evaluation.
