Cardiovascular disease continues to rise due to aging populations and increasingly sedentary lifestyles.

Heart disease is one of the leading causes of death in Korea and can rapidly progress to life-threatening conditions if risk factors are not properly managed.

Early diagnosis and timely treatment are therefore essential.

The Cardiovascular Center at Central Hospital provides comprehensive care for a wide range of cardiovascular conditions, including hypertension, coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, arrhythmia, and heart failure. Supported by advanced diagnostic technology and experienced specialists, we deliver personalized treatment tailored to each patient's condition.

1Advanced Diagnostic System for Accurate Cardiovascular Assessment

Accurate diagnosis is the foundation of effective cardiovascular care. Our center offers comprehensive evaluations for a broad spectrum of heart and vascular conditions, enabling precise diagnosis and individualized treatment planning.

Cardiac CT

Provides detailed assessment of coronary artery narrowing, calcification, and other causes of myocardial ischemia.

Electrocardiogram (ECG)

Detects abnormalities in heart rhythm and electrical activity, including arrhythmias and signs of ischemia.

Echocardiography & Carotid Ultrasound

Evaluates cardiac structure and function, heart valve disorders, blood flow abnormalities, and carotid artery stenosis.

Holter Monitoring

Continuous cardiac rhythm monitoring for 24 hours or longer to identify intermittent arrhythmias and investigate unexplained fainting episodes.

Arterial Stiffness Assessment

Measures vascular elasticity to evaluate atherosclerosis and overall cardiovascular risk.

2AI-Powered Inpatient Monitoring System

Even subtle changes in a cardiovascular patient's condition can significantly affect treatment outcomes.
To enhance patient safety, Central Hospital has implemented the thynC™ AI-based inpatient monitoring system throughout all inpatient wards.

  • The system continuously monitors vital signs around the clock and automatically alerts medical staff to signs of clinical deterioration or fall risk, enabling rapid intervention and enhanced patient care.

3Comprehensive One-Stop Cardiovascular Care

  • Multidisciplinary Team-Based Care

    Experienced cardiovascular specialists work closely with physicians from multiple specialties to provide coordinated, patient-centered treatment through a comprehensive multidisciplinary care model.

  • One-Stop Heart Health Screening Program

    Central Hospital offers a specialized cardiovascular screening program designed to detect heart and vascular diseases at an early stage. When abnormalities are identified, patients can be promptly referred for specialist consultation and treatment planning within the same healthcare system.

Regional Emergency Cardiovascular Care

As a designated regional emergency medical center, Central Hospital provides seamless care from emergency evaluation and hospitalization to surgical intervention when necessary, ensuring rapid treatment for cardiovascular emergencies.
