Angioplasty is used to open blocked coronary arteries caused by coronary artery disease. Angioplasty can help to restore blood flow to the heart without the need for open-heart surgery. Angioplasty is commonly implemented for serious conditions, such as heart attacks. Angioplasty is also named as percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)
Angioplasty is suggested for a patient with heart disease to restore the coronary artery blood flow. Most coronary artery diseases (CAD) need angioplasty, in a few times, CADs can be treated without an angioplasty.
Angioplasty is considered a useful surgery for patients facing the following conditions:
There are two types of angioplasty:
Before coronary Angioplasty is done, Dr. Kartik Bhosale tries to know which arteries are clogged, how many of them are blocked, and what is the severity of the blockages. For this purpose, an Angiography test is done. The X-ray picture will show any blockages, how many, and where they’re located. Once your doctor gets this information, the Angioplasty can proceed. Your doctor will engage the catheter to Coronaries through the Hand Or Groin. Then a wire will be passed through the blockage. Your doctor will blow up the balloon in the blockage and push the blockage outward against the artery wall. this opens the artery more and enhances blood flow. After the artery is widened, a small mesh tube called a Stent generally made of metal is kept inside the artery to keep it widened. These stents are coated with medicines that are continuously and slowly released into the artery. These medicines help prevent the artery from becoming blocked again. After the angioplasty is completed, the patient is in ICU for the next 24 hours and then discharged.
Getting back on your feet after angioplasty is usually faster and less limiting than after traditional open-heart surgeries.
