Abbott Launches AVEIR™ DR, The World’s First Dual Chamber Leadless Pacemaker in India
New Delhi, October 6, 2025 – Global healthcare leader Abbott has announced the launch of the AVEIR™ dual chamber (DR) leadless pacemaker system in India — marking a major medical milestone as the world’s first leadless pacemaker capable of pacing both chambers of the heart.
Pacemakers are life-saving devices that help manage bradycardia, a condition where the heart beats too slowly. Traditional systems rely on wires (leads) and surgical pockets to regulate the heartbeat. In contrast, leadless pacemakers are miniature, self-contained devices that are implanted directly into the heart using a catheter, eliminating the need for wires and reducing complications.
Until now, leadless technology was limited to single-chamber pacing, but Abbott’s AVEIR DR system changes that with its implant-to-implant (i2i) communication technology. This allows two tiny devices—one in the atrium and one in the ventricle—to communicate beat-by-beat in real time, achieving synchronised, dual-chamber pacing for the first time ever without wires.
This innovation is particularly relevant for India, where approximately one in three pacemaker patients require dual-chamber pacing.
“As leadless pacing technology has evolved, we’ve built upon our AVEIR VR single-chamber platform to expand the benefits to far more people,” said Ajay Singh Chauhan, General Manager for Abbott’s cardiac rhythm management business in India, Southeast Asia, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Korea. “This tiny device packed with powerful technology is designed to treat abnormal heart rhythms more precisely and effectively.”

Majority of Indians Face Cholesterol Imbalance, Raising Heart Risk: Redcliffe Labs Study
Over 80% Indians Show Lipid Derangements and Cholesterol Imbalance, Heightening Heart Risk, Reveals Redcliffe Labs’ Study
India, September 29, 2025: A comprehensive nationwide study by Redcliffe Labs, one of India’s fastest-growing diagnostic service providers, has uncovered deeply concerning trends in lipid, cardiac, and diabetes health markers across the country. Despite the rising burden of lifestyle-related diseases, preventive health checks remain underutilized, resulting in missed opportunities for early intervention.

The study analyzed over 7 million tests conducted between FY24 and FY25 and paints a troubling picture of India’s heart health:
-
More than 40% of individuals showed signs of diabetes derangement, including abnormal HbA1c, fasting, or random glucose levels — significantly increasing their cardiovascular risk.
-
These issues were more prevalent in men, making them especially vulnerable to sudden cardiac events.
-
Lipid derangements (cholesterol and triglyceride imbalances), a key cause of heart disease, affected over 70% in 2024, and this rose to over 80% in 2025 — indicating a sharp year-on-year increase.
Dr. Prashant Nag, Chief Operating Medical Officer at Redcliffe Labs, commented:
“Unhealthy eating habits and sedentary lifestyles are a major culprit. Processed foods are easily accessible and widely consumed, leading to a dangerous cycle of high cholesterol, clogged arteries, and increased cardiac emergencies.”
Surprisingly, the health crisis is most pronounced in metro cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Pune, Noida, Ahmedabad, Kolkata, Ghaziabad, Patna, and Lucknow — where awareness and access to healthcare are relatively higher, but unhealthy lifestyle patterns persist.
The study also revealed:
-
A rise in cardiac risk marker derangements from 60% in 2024 to 65% in 2025, with women showing higher abnormalities.
-
This suggests women may exhibit earlier signs of cardiac risk, offering a critical window for early intervention.
-
-
Early onset of risk factors like high cholesterol and elevated blood sugar in young adults, including those under 20, especially in urban areas.
-
Diseases once associated with middle or older age are now appearing in younger, working-age populations.
-
Aditya Kandoi, CEO & Founder of Redcliffe Labs, said: “India cannot afford to sleepwalk into a cardiac epidemic. These aren’t just numbers — they’re indicators of a national health crisis. What’s even more concerning is that many people don’t get tested until it’s too late.”
To address this gap, Redcliffe Labs recently launched India’s Wake-Up Test, a bold initiative that offers a 100% refund if the test reports are 100% normal — encouraging healthy individuals to test without hesitation.
“If you’re healthy, you pay nothing — but if something is found, you gain the chance to act early,” Kandoi added.“Prevention is not an expense; it’s an investment in the nation’s future. We urge every Indian to prioritize regular health checks — for themselves, their families, and for a healthier India.”

Aster Medcity Performs Kerala’s First Non-Surgical Fontan for Single-Ventricle Heart
Aster Medcity Performs Kerala’s First Non- Surgical Fontan Procedure on Children with Single-Ventricle Heart
Kochi, 29th September 2025: Aster Medcity has achieved a major milestone in pediatric cardiology by successfully performing Kerala’s first-ever Transcatheter Fontan completions—a non-surgical alternative for children with complex congenital heart defects. The groundbreaking procedures were performed on two young children, offering them a less invasive path to improved heart function without the need for open-heart surgery.

The Fontan completion is the final and critical stage in the treatment of children born with single-ventricle physiology, a condition where only one heart chamber effectively pumps blood. Traditionally, this requires major surgery to connect the inferior vena cava (IVC) to the pulmonary artery, allowing oxygen-poor blood to reach the lungs without passing through the heart.
One of the first recipients was a five-year-old girl from Idukki, diagnosed with pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum, who had previously undergone a Glenn shunt in infancy. Her case was particularly complex due to her family’s Jehovah’s Witness faith, which prohibits blood transfusions, making traditional surgery too risky. The Aster team successfully completed the Fontan circulation using a covered stent, and she was discharged in five days. Two months later, she is thriving.
The second case involved a four-and-a-half-year-old boy from Ernakulam, born with a double inlet left ventricle. Having already undergone two surgeries, his family sought a minimally invasive alternative to avoid a third open-heart procedure. After careful planning and CT imaging, a covered stent was placed, completing the Fontan pathway. The child recovered quickly with no complications.
“This innovative approach offers new hope to families of children with complex heart defects, and we are proud to introduce this advanced, non-surgical treatment in Kerala,” said Dr. Edwin Francis, Director & Senior Consultant – Paediatric Cardiology, Aster Medcity, Kochi.
Both procedures represent a transformative shift in managing single-ventricle heart conditions—achieving Fontan circulation without major incisions, bypass, or blood transfusions.

Why Talking Openly About Prostate Health is Essential for Early Detection
India, 24th sept 2025: Prostate health is a crucial yet often overlooked aspect of men’s overall well-being. While conversations about breast cancer and women’s health have become more normalized in recent years, discussions surrounding prostate health, particularly prostate cancer, remain more taboo. This silence is not only detrimental to men’s health but also directly impacts the effectiveness of early detection and intervention.
The Importance of Prostate Health
The prostate is a small gland located below the bladder that plays a role in producing semen. As men age, their prostate undergoes various changes, some of which may lead to health problems. One of the most common issues affecting the prostate is prostate cancer, a condition that can be slow-growing and asymptomatic in its early stages.
According to the American Cancer Society, prostate cancer is the second most common cancer among men in the U.S. It’s estimated that 1 in 8 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer during their lifetime. While the survival rates for prostate cancer are generally high, especially when detected early, many men remain unaware of their risks or delay seeking medical advice due to embarrassment, fear, or lack of awareness.
Breaking the Silence: The Role of Open Communication
- Encouraging Early Detection
One of the biggest barriers to early detection of prostate issues is the reluctance to talk about prostate health. Many men, particularly those under the age of 50, may not think about their prostate until they experience symptoms, which often don’t appear until the condition has advanced.
Early detection through screenings like the PSA (Prostate-Specific Antigen) test or a digital rectal exam (DRE) can identify potential issues long before they develop into life-threatening conditions. However, for many men, the thought of discussing their prostate health with a doctor is daunting, and they may avoid necessary tests or consultations.
When men are encouraged to openly discuss prostate health with their healthcare providers, they’re more likely to undergo regular screenings, which can lead to earlier detection of problems like prostate cancer or benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), a non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate. Early detection is a game-changer, as it improves the chances of successful treatment and survival.
- Reducing Stigma Around Prostate Health
A major reason why many men avoid conversations about their prostate is the stigma surrounding it. The topic of men’s sexual and reproductive health has long been shrouded in discomfort and taboo. Discussions about urination issues, erectile dysfunction, and sexual health are often seen as embarrassing or personal.
By talking openly about prostate health, men can help reduce the shame associated with these health concerns. Normalizing conversations about issues like frequent urination, difficulty starting or stopping urination, or blood in the urine can encourage others to seek medical help rather than suffer in silence. Over time, these open conversations can also lead to better-informed communities and reduce the anxiety men may feel when faced with prostate-related issues.
- Empowering Men to Take Control of Their Health
Men often face societal pressures to be stoic, strong, and unaffected by illness. This cultural expectation can discourage many from seeking medical attention when needed, leading to delayed diagnoses and more severe health outcomes. Open discussions about prostate health can empower men to take charge of their health, encourage them to undergo preventive screenings, and foster a sense of agency in managing their well-being.
When men understand that regular checkups are not only for when they’re feeling sick but are also an essential part of maintaining their health, they’re more likely to prioritize prostate screenings as part of their routine healthcare.
The Benefits of Early Detection
The earlier prostate problems are detected, the easier they are to treat. Here are a few key benefits of early detection:
- Better Survival Rates for Prostate Cancer: Prostate cancer often develops slowly, and when caught early, it has a high survival rate. In fact, nearly 99% of men diagnosed with localized prostate cancer survive for at least five years after their diagnosis. Early detection allows for less aggressive treatment options, reducing the risk of side effects like incontinence and erectile dysfunction.
- Prevention of Complications: Prostate health problems that are left untreated can lead to complications such as urinary retention, kidney damage, or bladder infections. Detecting and addressing these issues early on can prevent the need for more complex treatments down the road.
- Improved Quality of Life: When men address prostate issues early, they have a better chance of managing their symptoms and maintaining their quality of life. Timely intervention can help mitigate the impact of symptoms such as urinary difficulties or sexual dysfunction, which are common in prostate conditions.
Why Should Men Get Regular Prostate Screenings?
Prostate health screenings are especially important for men at higher risk, including those who:
- Are over the age of 50 (or 45 for those with a family history of prostate cancer).
- Have a family history of prostate cancer or other related cancers.
- Are of African descent, as studies show African-American men are at higher risk.
- Experience symptoms such as frequent urination, difficulty starting or stopping urination, blood in urine, or pain during urination.
The two most common prostate screenings are:
- PSA Test (Prostate-Specific Antigen): A blood test that measures the level of PSA, a substance produced by the prostate. High levels of PSA can indicate prostate cancer, although other conditions like BPH or prostatitis can cause elevated PSA levels.
- Digital Rectal Exam (DRE): In this exam, a doctor manually checks the prostate for abnormalities in size, shape, and texture. Although it’s not as commonly used today due to the availability of PSA testing, it can still help identify issues with the prostate.
Moving Forward: Men’s Health Advocacy
Healthcare providers, community leaders, and public health organizations must continue to promote open dialogue around prostate health. Campaigns that encourage men to talk openly about their health and seek early screenings can go a long way in addressing this often-neglected aspect of men’s well-being.
Conclusion
Open conversations about prostate health are essential for encouraging early detection, reducing stigma, and empowering men to take control of their health. Early screening and intervention can significantly improve the prognosis for prostate cancer and other prostate-related conditions, leading to better outcomes and a higher quality of life. By normalizing discussions about prostate health, we can foster a culture of awareness, prevention, and proactive care, ultimately ensuring that more men are informed, supported, and able to make decisions that benefit their long-term health.
The time has come for men to talk openly about prostate health—because when they do, they give themselves the best chance for a healthy future.

National Nutrition Month: Cut Down on Sugar, Salt, and Oil, Experts Warn

Dr. Mrinali Dwivedi explained that excessive sugar consumption fuels obesity and increases insulin resistance, a direct pathway to diabetes. High salt intake is strongly linked to hypertension and heart disease, while overuse of cooking oils and processed fats contributes to obesity and clogged arteries. “What makes the situation alarming is that many people do not realize how much hidden sugar, salt, and oil they consume daily through packaged foods, fried snacks, and sugary beverages,” she said.
“Nutrition is the foundation of good health. By reducing sugar, salt, and oil in our diets, we can not only manage weight but also prevent serious health problems that are becoming increasingly common among young and middle-aged Indians,” said Dr. Mrinali Dwivedi. She further added, “Reduce the amount of total fat intake to less than 30% of total energy intake to help prevent unhealthy weight gain. Lower your risk of developing noncommunicable diseases (such as heart disease, stroke, diabetes and some cancers) by: reducing saturated fats (found in fatty meat, butter, coconut oil, cream, cheese, ghee and lard) to less than 10% of total energy intake; reducing total trans fats (found in processed food, fast food, snack food, fried food, frozen pizza, pies, cookies, margarines and spreads) to less than 1% of total energy intake; and replacing both with unsaturated fats (found in fish, avocado, nuts, olive oil, soy, canola, sunflower and corn oils). Apex Group of Hospitals has launched awareness drives during Nutrition Month to encourage families to rethink their food habits. The message is clear: a balanced plate today is the strongest investment in a healthier tomorrow.”
