About HCA HealthONE Denver Heart

We are proud to have garnered a reputation in the area for positive outcomes in cardiovascular care, and are always on hand to answer questions about maintaining heart health and reducing risk factors.

Cardiac imaging

Treating heart disease starts with prevention. If you have a family history of heart disease or have been referred by your primary doctor to a cardiologist, we can provide an array of preventive services.

Convenient, affordable, in-office cardiac testing is available at our Lakewood location. As part of our ongoing commitment to accurate diagnosis and early intervention, we may use one or more of the following diagnostic tools:

  • Echocardiograms
  • Event and holter monitoring
  • Exercise stress testing
  • Implantable loop recorders
  • New patient consultations
  • Stress echocardiograms
  • Vascular ultrasounds

Arrhythmia treatments

Our electrophysiology program involves a number of procedures and interventions to treat cardiac arrhythmia, a condition in which the heart beats too fast, too slow or irregularly.

For example, atrial fibrillation (AFib) is an irregular heartbeat that increases your risk of stroke. AFib can limit the amount of blood that reaches the lower chambers of the heart and the body.

We treat abnormal heart rhythms with an advanced, minimally invasive implant procedure that reduces the risk of stroke for those with AFib. It can also eliminate the need for blood thinners if you are experiencing nonvalvular AFib, which involves an irregular heartbeat not caused by a heart valve abnormality. The device is designed to permanently seal off the left atrial appendage (LAA), where blood clots can form as a result of AFib.

Lead extraction

Lead extraction is a delicate, complex procedure that must be performed by an experienced provider in an advanced facility. The team at Denver Heart is highly experienced in providing transvenous lead extraction (TLE).


Cardio-oncology care

Cancer treatment, while potentially lifesaving, can also be damaging to other parts of the body, especially the heart. Additionally, many who are going through, or have gone through, cancer treatment have several other conditions placing stress on the heart.

A specialized field called cardio-oncology has been developed to meet the needs of this population. With a cancer diagnosis, some of the heart complications people can experience include:

  • Arrhythmias
  • Heart failure
  • High blood pressure
  • Myocardial ischemia
  • Myocarditis
  • Pulmonary hypertension
  • Pericardial disease
  • Thromboembolism

We provide cardiovascular support before, during and after treatment. Our services include any combination of the following:

  • Advanced cardiovascular imaging
  • Follow-up for high-risk patients
  • Preexisting cardiovascular condition treatment and management
  • Regular monitoring during treatment
  • Risk factor assessment
  • Treatment for cancer survivors with cardiac damage

Coronary artery disease treatment

Coronary artery disease refers to plaque buildup in the heart's arteries which could potentially result in a heart attack. Coronary heart disease is actually caused by coronary artery disease, but doctors often use these terms interchangeably.

Risk factors include:

  • Diabetes
  • Family history
  • High blood pressure
  • High low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol
  • Low high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol
  • Obesity
  • Smoking

Coronary artery disease is preventable, though. With a healthy diet, controlled weight and the right amount of exercise, you can reduce your risk. Medication is typically prescribed to lower the heart's output and control cholesterol, while other treatments include stenting and bypass surgery.

For those with more advanced coronary artery disease, surgical intervention might be necessary to restore blood flow to the arteries and prevent a heart attack.


Critical limb ischemia care

Critical limb ischemia (CLI) refers to a condition defined by extensive blockages in the arteries of the lower extremities, particularly the legs. CLI is an advanced form of peripheral arterial disease (PAD), in which arteries that have become narrow reduce the flow of blood to the limbs. CLI can cause tissue damage and loss of limbs, also known as amputation. For treatment, medications are available, or surgery may be an option.


Heart failure treatment

Heart failure doesn’t mean that your heart has stopped working altogether. Instead, this term refers to a chronic condition in which the heart is not pumping enough blood to meet your body's demands. As a result, you'll feel fatigued, short of breath and have difficulty walking or climbing stairs.

Your heart failure may be managed with medications, or you may have an additional underlying condition that can be treated to alleviate the heart failure.

Surgical or medical device treatments might include:

  • Biventricular pacing
  • Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT)
  • Coronary bypass
  • Heart valve repair or replacement
  • Implantable cardioverter-defibrillators
  • Ventricular assist devices (VADs)

Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) treatment

Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM), also called idiopathic hypertrophic subaortic stenosis, is a condition that is often hereditary. The heart’s muscles become abnormally thickened, making it harder for the heart to pump blood properly. If you have HOCM, staying active and maintaining a healthy diet is important. Medications or surgery are options for treatment.


Peripheral vascular disease PVD treatment

Peripheral vascular disease refers to a blood circulation problem that causes blood vessels outside of the heart to become narrow, blocked or produce spasms.


Structural and valvular heart disease treatment

Our cardiac specialists and cardiologists offer a diverse range of care and treatments if you have heart abnormalities and heart disease. A combination of medications or surgery can help depending on your heart disease. We offer both minimally invasive and complex open-heart surgery procedures.

Patent foramen ovale (PFO) closure

Patent foramen ovale (PFO) is a heart condition that occurs when there are holes in the wall of tissue between the left and right upper chambers of the heart. In a PFO closure, a medical device is used to close an opening between the two upper chambers of the heart.

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR)

Aortic stenosis is a narrowing in the large blood vessel of the heart called the aorta. We provide advanced treatment for aortic stenosis with a minimally invasive treatment called TAVR. During this procedure, our interventional cardiologist inserts a catheter (thin tube) through a small incision. The tube is then guided to the damaged aortic valve, where a new valve is placed. The new valve allows blood to flow freely, relieving symptoms and allowing you to return to prior levels of activity.

Since TAVR is a minimally invasive procedure, it protects the body from the potential trauma experienced during a traditional surgery. It also reduces pain and complications, shortens hospital stays, speeds up recovery time and minimizes scarring. This technique also allows us to treat people who may not be strong enough to undergo surgery.


Heart care for athletes

As many athletes lead a healthy lifestyle, there is often an assumption that athletes and those with particularly active lifestyles are not at risk for heart disease. However, if you're an athlete, you can be impacted by heart disease or experience heart-related health conditions at any point in your life.
