History

Emerging from the small Central Heart Clinic in Ward 10 of Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Centre (JPMC) Karachi in 1956. NICVD has been the primary heart-care provider for Pakistanis for over 65 years.[citation needed]

With support from the Government of Pakistan, USAID and the Japanese Government, NICVD became a fully functional tertiary cardiac-care centre on 14 August 1971. For the following eight years, NICVD remained a Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) but in 1979 it was nationalized by the Government of Pakistan and became an Autonomous Body under the Federal Ministry of Health.[3]

Since its inception in 1963, the National Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases (NICVD) has played a pivotal role in caring for patients with heart disease in Pakistan. NICVD is the first tertiary cardiac care institute in South Asia as well as the flagship facility for cardiology in Pakistan with a focus on superior care for patients, education and training for medical professionals, and research and development in cardiology.

NICVD caters to the cardiovascular needs of a vast majority of patients from all provinces of Pakistan as well as patients from other neighboring countries. It is responsible for training the bulk of local cardiac physicians, nurses and paramedics throughout the country.[4]

To extend the state of the art health facilities to the doorsteps of poor cardiac patients whether belonging to different localities of metropolis Karachi or to the far-flung parts of Pakistan, the Government of Sindh decided that cardiac facility should be brought out of Karachi and expanded. For this National Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases has introduced a new era of heart healthcare by introducing Chest pain Units and Satellite Centres.
