Cardiology

At Trumbull Regional Medical Center, our comprehensive heart and vascular services are focused on preventing and treating heart disease. Our heart team is trained to diagnose chest pain quickly and begin treatment as soon as possible to help prevent, or even reverse, muscle damage to the heart. The hospital has recently achieved Chest Pain v6 Accreditation, which is the highest-level Chest Pain Accreditation available through the American College of Cardiology.

Trumbull Regional is proud to be the only Accredited Chest Pain Center in the Mahoning Valley. 

As an accredited facility, expert care begins the moment someone with chest pain enters the emergency room, and continues through diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation, and follow up.

Trumbull Regional offers Coronary Calcium Scoring, a convenient and non-invasive way of evaluating whether you may be at an increased risk for a heart attack.

Heart Rhythm Management Services 

Heart Rhythm Disorder known as an arrhythmia, is characterized by abnormal heartbeat — too fast, too slow or irregular. Doctors use tests such as an electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG), electrophysiology studies or a Holter monitor, which records heart activity over a period of time, to diagnose arrhythmias. We provide comprehensive arrhythmia treatment, from lifestyle-modification assistance to highly complex surgical treatment.

Heart Failure Expertise

Congestive heart failure (CHF) occurs when the heart can no longer pump enough blood to meet the body's needs. Different from a heart attack, heart failure is a chronic, long-term condition that prevents the heart from functioning effectively. Treatment options include medical management, risk-factor management, minimally invasive cardiac catheterization and surgery.

Heart Attack Symptoms In Women

Heart disease is the leading cause of death in women. Although the most common heart attack symptom for both men and women is chest pain or discomfort, women are more likely than men to experience atypical symptoms such as shortness of breath, nausea, and back or jaw pain.

Other heart attack symptoms include:

• Chest discomfort, which can feel like uncomfortable pressure, squeezing, fullness or pain in the center of your chest. The feeling can either last for more than a few minutes or can go away and come back.
• Discomfort or pain in other areas of the upper body, such as in one or both arms, the back, neck, jaw or stomach.
• Shortness of breath with or without chest discomfort.
• Other signs may include breaking out in a cold sweat, nausea or vomiting, or lightheadedness.
