Evercare Hospital Chattogram, the largest hospital in the port city, organized special health talks and a marathon & cyclothon to celebrate World Heart Day. The speakers at the health talks shared opinions and experiences on the theme of this year’s World Heart Day, ‘Use Heart for Action’. The hospital authorities organized this event to increase public awareness about heart health and cardiovascular diseases.
The event was attended by Samir Singh, COO of Evercare Hospital Chattogram; Professor Dr. Shaikh Md Hasan Mamun, Senior Consultant and Coordinator of the Department of Clinical and Interventional Cardiology; Dr. Zahiruddin Mahmud Illius, Senior Consultant, Clinical and Interventional Cardiology; and Dr. Tarik Bin Abdur Rashid, Senior Consultant, Clinical and Interventional Cardiology, among others.
The World Heart Day Marathon and Cyclothon saw spontaneous participation from people of all ages. High energy and excitement were observed in both events, highlighting the importance of regular physical activity for a healthy heart.
During his speech, Samir Singh, COO of Evercare Hospital Chattogram, said, “heart disease is the number one cause of death in the world today. About 20 million lives are lost every year due to heart disease and stroke, most of which can be prevented through individual health awareness. Let’s all be alert, aware, and take an oath to build a heart disease-free world.”
Professor Dr. Shaikh Md Hasan Mamun said, “By ‘Use Heart for Action’, we mean that everyone needs to be aware from their respective positions to prevent heart disease. The risk of death from heart disease is much higher than other diseases, so the government and concerned authorities need to adopt a central policy prioritizing heart disease treatment and everyone needs to raise their voice collectively on this issue.”
Dr. Zahiruddin Mahmud Illius said, “Air pollution is a factor that is not often discussed in relation to heart disease. The risk of heart attack, heart disease, brain stroke, and mortality can increase due to air pollution. People in Bangladesh, in particular, are unaware of this. Therefore, we need to be aware of environmental improvement and strengthen state activities and initiatives to refrain from environmentally destructive activities.”
Dr. Tarik Bin Abdur Rashid said, “cardiovascular disease is one of the major health concerns in Bangladesh. However, these diseases can be prevented through lifestyle changes. Regular exercise, nutritious diet, and regular medical check-ups keep the heart healthy. Through today’s marathon and cyclothon, we want to say that we need to engage in daily physical activities not only for heart health but also for overall well-being.”

Evercare Hospital Chattogram proudly announces the launch of its new Heart Failure Clinic, a cutting-edge facility dedicated to providing comprehensive care for heart failure patients. The clinic aims to enhance patient outcomes through innovative treatments and expert care.

The inaugural event was attended by several distinguished guests and key figures in the medical community.

This was followed by informative orations by Professor Dr. Shaikh Md Hasan Mamun, Senior Consultant and Departmental Coordinator of Clinical and Interventional Cardiology; Professor Dr. Md. Atahar Ali, Senior Consultant, Electrophysiologist, Heart Failure Specialist at Evercare Hospitals, Bangladesh; and Dr. Arif Mahmud, Director of Medical Services at Evercare Hospitals, Bangladesh.

Tarik Bin Abdur Rashid, Senior Consultant in Clinical and Interventional Cardiology; and Dr. Tania Lodh, Head of Medical Services and Quality Assurance at Evercare Hospital Chattogram were also present.
Professor Dr. Shaikh Md Hasan Mamun, Senior Consultant and Departmental Coordinator of Clinical and Interventional Cardiology presented an overview of the clinic’s facilities and services, “Today marks a significant milestone with the opening of our Heart Failure Clinic.

Evercare Hospital Chattogram, the largest hospital in the port city, has launched Intravascular Ultrasound (IVUS) services as part of its modern cardiology treatment options. This advanced diagnostic tool provides high-resolution imaging from within blood vessels, aiding in more accurate diagnosis and treatment decisions for patients with coronary artery disease.

IVUS works by inserting a miniature ultrasound probe through a catheter to generate real-time images of artery walls, plaque buildup, and blood flow. This technology provides a more detailed assessment than traditional angiography, empowering doctors to evaluate the severity of blockages and perform precise stent placements during angioplasty procedures.
“The introduction of IVUS at Evercare Hospital Chattogram is a landmark in our commitment to deliver world-class cardiac care,” said Professor Dr. Shaikh Md Hasan Mamun, Senior Consultant & Departmental Coordinator, Clinical and Interventional Cardiology at Evercare Hospital Chattogram. “With this technology, our cardiologists can make more informed decisions, leading to better patient outcomes and fewer complications.”
IVUS brings several significant benefits for patients. It provides improved accuracy, allowing for precise diagnosis and personalized treatment plans, which would lead to better care tailored to the patient’s anatomy and condition. By optimizing stent placement, IVUS reduces the risk of complications, such as stent thrombosis and restenosis. Additionally, real-time imaging enables doctors to identify and address potential issues during procedures, thereby enhancing patient safety.
The launch of IVUS underscores Evercare Hospital Chattogram’s commitment to advanced medical innovation and delivering the highest quality of care to patients across the region.

Evercare Hospital Chattogram, the largest hospital in the port city, has achieved a significant milestone by successfully completing 100 cardiac surgeries. This achievement was announced during a press conference.

Dr. Asif Ahmed Bin Moin, Senior Consultant of the Cardiothoracic and Vascular Surgery Department at Evercare Hospital Chattogram, shared details about the surgeries performed. He highlighted that 93 of the 100 surgeries were Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG), with 1 CABG with AVR (Aortic Valve Replacement), 5 ASD (Atrial Septal Defect) closures, and 1 DVR (Mitral Valve Repair). Notably, all CABG procedures were performed by off-pump beating heart technique, and almost 80% of these patients were having high risk left main coronary artery disease.

“We are thrilled to share that each patient who underwent these cardiac surgeries is now recovering well and enjoying better days,” Dr. Moin stated, “This success is a testament to the tireless efforts of our highly skilled doctors and dedicated team who are committed to providing comprehensive care to every patient.”
