What is Angioplasty?
It is a medical procedure used to treat narrow or blocked blood vessels, normally arteries, in the body and the word word “angioplasty” comes from two greek words: “angio” meaning vessel, and “plastos,” meaning formed or molded and during angioplasty, one health hospital uses a catheter, which is a thin, flexible tube, to access the blocked or narrowed blood vessel.
Types of Angioplasty
- Balloon angioplasty: It is a designed catheter with a tiny balloon that is carefully guided through the artery to the blockage, then inflated to widen the opening and increase blood flow to the heart.
- Carotid artery angioplasty: It procedures that open clogged arteries to restore blood flow to the brain.
- Cerebral angioplasty: It is similar to a widely used cardiology procedure and is used to open partially blocked vertebral and carotid arteries in the neck, as well as blood vessels within the brain.
Need of Angioplasty
- Angina: It is a chest pain or discomfort caused by reduced blood flow to the heart muscle and angioplasty can reduce angina symptoms by boosting the narrowed arteries and improving blood flow to the heart.
- Renal Artery Stenosis: It is narrowed arteries supplying blood to the kidneys, potentially leading to hypertension and kidney problems.
Symptoms of Angioplasty
- Chest Discomfort: Some patients may experience mild chest discomfort or soreness at the incision site in the groin or wrist where the catheter was inserted and this discomfort is usually temporary and should improve over a few days.
- Irregular Heartbeat: Some individuals may experience temporary irregular heartbeats (arrhythmias) after angioplasty and these are usually monitored and managed by one health hospital provider and after resolve on their own.
Conclusion
It stands as a evidence to the advancements in modern medicine and become a hope for patients with blocked or narrowed coronary arteries, providing relief to chest pain and reduce the risk of severe heart events, it is a significant medical achievement, it is essential to recognize and managing heart disease and according to the changes, one health hospital provides lifestyle changes, medication, and ongoing care of a overall approach to heart health.
What is meant by angioplasty?
It means that percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), is a medical procedure used to open blocked or narrowed coronary arteries.
When blood flow is reduced?
Coronary artery disease where oily deposits or plaque have narrowed the arteries, it reduces blood flow.
What is the role of a stent in angioplasty?
It acts as a scaffold to keep the artery open after the balloon is inflated and helps prevent narrowing (restenosis) of the artery.
When individuals are considered for angioplasty?
Angioplasty is typically considered for individuals with significant coronary artery blockages, symptoms of angina, or those at high risk of a heart attack.
Is angioplasty a major surgery?
No, angioplasty is considered a minimally invasive procedure. It is performed in a cardiac catheterization lab (cath lab) and usually does not require general anesthesia.
