Radial or femoral coronary interventions, radial access being the route of choice.
Diagnostic Coronary Arteriograms
Emergency and elective or planned coronary angioplasties.
Arteriographies of the lower limbs and aortographies
Recanalization of clogged arteries in the context of acute myocardial infarction by primary coronary angioplasty with stent implantation, preferably by radial access and by femoral access as an option.
Coronary angioplasties with stent implantation in patients with complex conditions: miltiva coronary disease, bifurcations, intervention of left main trunk lesions, chronic total coronary occlusions.
Worked together with other colleagues who are experts in solving structural heart problems: percutaneous closure of atrial septal defects (atrial septal defect, patent foramen ovale), aortic valvotomy, transcatheter aortic valve implantation.
Worked together with other specialist colleagues, implant abdominal aortic endoprostheses to resolve aneurysms or stenosis.
Percutaneous denervation of renal arteries in selected patients with resistant arterial hypertension.
Right cardiac catheterization and vascular reactivity tests in patients with pulmonary hypertension.

He has been a lecturer on highly relevant topics related to Interventional Cardiology and atherosclerosis, such as:
Endovascular treatment vs. revascularization surgery in patients with left main trunk injuries.
How to identify high-risk coronary atherosclerotic plaques?
When to revascularize severe coronary lesions in patients who will undergo transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI)?
Optimal management of acute myocardial infarction with and without ST elevation.
Optimal antiplatelet therapy in the context of acute coronary syndromes.
Invasive management of coronary lesions in very elderly patients > 80 years (octogenarians).
Coronary stent’s evolution.
Is it enough to place a stent with an angiographic image to obtain good long-term results?

Dear Dr. Correa with these lines I would like to express my gratitude to you and attest to the excellent professional and human being that you are. At a very difficult time in my life I was fortunate to find you and today, thanks to God and yours hands, I am alive. Words will never be enough to express the level of gratitude I have towards you. God continue to bless you with great health.

It was 2012, I arrived at Dr. Roberto Correa’s office, almost unable to breathe, 90% arterial obstruction. He placed a stent on me. My life went back to normal and I got closer to a wonderful doctor, friend and human being.

I am very grateful and blessed to be one of Dr. Roberto Correa’s patients, thanks to him I feel in very good condition and healthy for a while. Dr. Correa is an excellent professional and human being with great charisma. During my difficult times, he used his wisdom and empathy to help me move forward. I simply owe him my life and my heart will always thank him.

On the 2014, in Venezuela, the Dr. Roberto Carlo Correa Bastidas, saved my life, when I had an Acute Myocardial Infarction. It was him who took care of me, practicing a primary angioplasty followed by the placement of two medicated stents via PCI. After this intervention and respective treatment, I’ve been able to live with great health conditions thanks to this amazing doctor.
