Integrated Care for Patients with Stroke, TIA (Mini-Stroke), or Syncope (Fainting)
At KidsHeart Medical Center, we provide focused, coordinated care for adults dealing with conditions at the intersection of heart and brain health. Our Cardio-Neuro Management service supports individuals who have experienced stroke, transient ischemic attack (TIA), or unexplained fainting (syncope).
These conditions often involve overlapping cardiac and neurological causes and require expert evaluation from both perspectives to ensure lasting stability and prevent recurrence. This multidisciplinary service is part of our Adult Cardiology Program and is available across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Al Ain.
Your Heart and Brain Are More Connected Than Most People Realize
Many strokes, mini-strokes, and fainting episodes have cardiac causes — arrhythmias, structural abnormalities, or blood pressure instability that affects brain blood flow. Our Cardio-Neuro Management service evaluates both systems together to find the root cause and prevent recurrence.
Had a Stroke or TIA? Your Heart Needs to Be Evaluated Too
A TIA (transient ischemic attack, or mini-stroke) is a serious warning sign. Even if symptoms resolved on their own, an underlying cardiac cause — like atrial fibrillation — may be responsible, and without proper evaluation, the risk of a full stroke remains elevated.
Unexplained Fainting? It Could Be More Than Anxiety or Dehydration.
Syncope — sudden loss of consciousness — can be triggered by drops in blood pressure, arrhythmias, or other cardiac causes that don’t always show up on a basic test. We use Holter monitoring, echocardiography, and detailed history-taking to get a complete picture.
We Coordinate With Your Neurologist, So Nothing Falls Between the Gaps
Cardio-neuro conditions sit at the border of two specialties. Our cardiologists work in close partnership with neurology teams to ensure your care is consistent, coordinated, and covers all the relevant factors — not just one side of the picture.

If You've Already Seen a Neurologist With No Clear Answers, Come See Us.
Patients who have been evaluated for stroke or fainting without a definitive diagnosis often benefit from a cardiac perspective. We look specifically for the cardiac contributors that neurological workups may not capture — and we often find what others missed.
