Dr. Mohammed Akmal Haq K P

Consultant Interventional Cardiologist

MBBS (JIPMER), MD (General Medicine), DM (Cardiology)

Professional Profile

Dr. Mohammed Akmal Haq K P is an experienced Consultant Interventional Cardiologist with extensive expertise in preventive cardiology, complex coronary interventions, cardiac pacemaker implantation, advanced echocardiography, and critical cardiac care.

He completed his MBBS from the prestigious Jawaharlal Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education and Research (JIPMER), Puducherry, one of India's premier medical institutions. He subsequently obtained his MD in General Medicine from Government Medical College, Thiruvananthapuram, followed by his DM in Cardiology from the prestigious Government Medical College, Kozhikode, a renowned tertiary care centre with extensive experience in advanced cardiac interventions.

Expertise in Interventional Cardiology

Dr. Akmal has substantial experience in invasive and interventional cardiology, having performed more than 4,000 coronary angiograms and over 1,000 coronary angioplasties (PCI).

He is proficient in both routine and complex coronary interventions, including angioplasty for challenging coronary lesions and emergency primary angioplasty for acute myocardial infarction.

His procedural expertise also extends to temporary and permanent pacemaker implantation, atrial septal defect (ASD) device closure, and peripheral arterial interventions, enabling comprehensive management of coronary artery disease, cardiac conduction disorders, and selected structural and peripheral vascular conditions.

He has extensive experience in managing acute coronary syndromes, advanced coronary artery disease, cardiac rhythm and conduction abnormalities, and patients requiring urgent or high-risk cardiac interventions.

Clinical Cardiology and Critical Cardiac Care

With a strong foundation in general medicine and specialized training in cardiology, Dr. Akmal is experienced in managing a broad spectrum of cardiovascular and associated medical conditions.

His clinical expertise includes the diagnosis and management of coronary artery disease, heart failure, cardiomyopathies, valvular heart diseases, cardiac arrhythmias, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and pulmonary hypertension.

He also has considerable experience in managing critically ill cardiac patients, including those presenting with acute myocardial infarction, cardiogenic shock, acute heart failure, and life-threatening cardiovascular emergencies.

Advanced Echocardiography

Dr. Akmal has extensive experience in echocardiography and cardiovascular imaging, with expertise in evaluating ventricular function, valvular abnormalities, cardiomyopathies, congenital heart diseases, and other structural cardiac disorders.

His experience in echocardiography plays an important role in accurate diagnosis, treatment planning, and long-term monitoring of patients with complex cardiovascular conditions.

Preventive Cardiology

In addition to interventional procedures, Dr. Akmal places significant emphasis on preventive cardiology, early cardiovascular risk assessment, and long-term heart health.

His approach focuses on identifying and managing cardiovascular risk factors, including hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, and lifestyle-related conditions, with the aim of preventing cardiovascular events and improving long-term outcomes.

Academic Contributions and Research

Dr. Akmal maintains an active interest in academic cardiology, clinical research, and continuing medical education.

His notable research publications include “Hypothenar Hammer Syndrome” and “Mitral Valve Prolapse Imitating a Mass Lesion,” the latter published in a journal of the Indian Academy of Echocardiography.

His academic interests encompass interventional cardiology, echocardiography, coronary artery disease, and the management of complex cardiovascular conditions.

Patient-Centred Approach

Dr. Akmal is committed to providing ethical, evidence-based, and patient-centred cardiovascular care. He combines his clinical and interventional expertise with a comprehensive approach to diagnosis, treatment, and long-term cardiovascular prevention.

His goal is to deliver advanced, individualized cardiac care while ensuring patient safety, informed decision-making, and improved cardiovascular outcomes.
