Nymphenburg Heart Catheterisation Laboratory

The Nymphenburg Heart Catheterisation Laboratory is a cooperation of two group cardiology practices with Klinikum Dritter Orden. Operating in collaboration with the senior consultants / heads of the hospital's departments of internal medicine, the Nymphenburg Heart Catheterisation Laboratory has existed since as long ago as 1994. The lab provides a full range of modern diagnostic and treatment methods in interventional cardiology.

The Chest Pain Unit provides a 24/7 acute intervention service (diagnostic cardiac catheterisation, balloon dilatation, stent implantation) for the management of acute coronary syndrome. Patient care is provided in the hospital's Intensive Care Unit or Intermediate Care unit by the staff of Internal Medicine Clinics I and II. Ambulatory diagnostic cardiac catheterisation procedures, electrophysiological investigations and catheter ablations, defibrillator implants, cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT), electrical cardioversion, valvuloplasties and atrial septum defect closures are also available. Diagnostic cardiac catheterisation is a walk-in, walk-out procedure in most cases. Non-invasive coronary angiography by multislice CT was introduced in cooperation with the Nymphenburg Centre of Radiology and Nuclear Medicine.

Emergencies:
In acute emergencies (a heart attack or similar), please call emergency services (dial 112), who will coordinate callout of the right emergency service for you. If you have attended our lab or Klinikum Dritter Orden as a patient, please tell the emergency service coordinator and, as appropriate, the emergency physician as well. Please be aware, however, that you may be brought to a different hospital as circumstances dictate (if no beds are available at Klinikum Dritter Orden for example).

Doctors from two large Munich-based cardiology practices (Burgstraße, Weinstraße) run the Nymphenburg Heart Catheterisation Laboratory at Klinikum Dritter Orden. Prof. Dr. U. Busch and Dr. Rampp are here to help you at our Heart Catheterisation Laboratory with the support of a team of experienced nurses and healthcare providers.
