Cardiology is the specialist area that studies and treats heart disease.
The Cardiology department's mission must be to care for patients with heart diseases, seeking to satisfy the needs and expectations of all clients, with the maximum levels of excellence and efficiency, with the teamwork of all its professionals.
In the area of care, one of the department's objectives is to care for both the population assigned to the hospital and those who are referred by professionals from other centres and/or through the emergency services.
In the area of research, the development of its basic and applied research activities, acting as a bridge between both. The development of specific units and clinical trials.
In the area of teaching, as a university hospital, it aims to be a benchmark in under- and postgraduate teaching, including in the latter the continuous training of professional physicians and nurses.
Our vision and values:
Share your health queries with your medical practitioner. They will examine your case in a personalised manner to give you the most appropriate solution.

This is currently the method of choice for the diagnosis and monitoring of patients with arterial hypertension, also permitting optimum adjustment of the pharmacological treatment. It is a non-invasive method performed as a day hospital procedure.

There are two types of tests available at the hospital according to the needs of each patient: conventional cardiac stress test and cardiac stress test with isotopes. In the conventional cardiac stress test, the patient walks on a treadmill until exerting maximum effort.
At all times the patient's arterial tension and heart rate are monitored electrocardiographically. In special circumstances, it is necessary to inject a radioactive isotope performing an image study with multiples of effort.
The cardiac stress test with isotopes is conducted in collaboration with the hospital's Nuclear Medicine department. Both tests are currently short heart tests (SPECT) which provide additional information to that obtained from the cornerstone test of the non-invasive study of ischemic cardiopathy, enabling the early detection of this disease, its assessment when present and the provision of information on the al class of the patient, etc.

This invasive procedure provides information on multiple haemodynamic parameters in patients with valvular heart disease, congenital heart disease, etc., invaluable when making therapy decisions. Additionally, it makes it possible directly to treat conditions such as mitral stenosis by means of a valvuloplasty or percutaneous closure of the atrial defect, avoiding, in both cases, the patient having to undergo surgery.
The coronariography is today the gold standard in the study of the coronary arteries. It makes it possible to assess the anatomy, the existence of obstructions and to treat them by the fitting of endo-vascular prosthesis (stents). Furthermore, it is the treatment of choice in acute myocardial infarction by means of primary angioplasty, a procedure carried out at the time of the infarction and which consists in opening the artery responsible.

This technique is very useful for re-establishing the normal rhythm of the heart in some types of arrhythmias. It consists in administering an electric shock under sedation and is performed as a day hospital procedure. This procedure is performed tly with the professional from the Intensive Care Unit at the centre.

A powerful Cardiology department in a university hospital such as La Zarzuela should consider the following aspects of the field of cardiology in the following sections:
1. Clinical epidemiology
2. Clinical and surgical cardiology
3. Diagnostic techniques
4. Therapeutic techniques
5. Research in Cardiology
We group these in al, autonomous units with decision-making capacity but with absolute integration within the department. The unit heads hold regular meetings with the department head. The units must report their activities in a t report on an annual basis.
The units are:
