Power of Angioplasty
When is Angioplasty Necessary?
- Coronary Artery Disease: It will supply blood to the heart and become narrowed or blocked, it leads to chest pain or heart attacks.
- Acute Myocardial Infarction: When an emergency procedure to open blocked coronary arteries and restore blood flow to the heart muscle.
- Peripheral Artery Disease: To treat narrowed or blocked arteries in the legs or other extremities, relieving symptoms like leg pain and difficulty walking.
Preparing for Angioplasty
- Medical Evaluation: Before the angioplasty, your one health hospital provider will conduct a thorough medical evaluation which includes reviewing your medical history, conducting physical examinations, and performing necessary tests, such as blood tests, electrocardiogram.
- Medications: One health hospital medications you are currently taking, including prescription drugs, and supplements and may adjust or temporarily stop certain medications before the procedure, especially blood thinners, to reduce the risk of bleeding during and after angioplasty.
- Fasting: You will be instructed to fast for several hours before the procedure and ensure your stomach is empty, which reduces the risk of vomiting during and after angioplasty.
Angioplasty Procedure
- Anesthesia: You will receive local anesthesia without feeling the area where the doctor plans to insert the catheter and you may also be given a mild sedative to help you relax.
- Catheter Insertion: The interventional cardiologist will make a small incision, usually in the groin area, although sometimes in the wrist or elbow.
- Final Angiography: After balloon inflation and stent placement, another angiogram is performed to confirm that the artery is capably widened, and blood flow is improved.
Conclusion
It means that percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), is a medical procedure used to open blocked or narrowed coronary arteries.
Coronary artery disease where oily deposits or plaque have narrowed the arteries, it reduces blood flow.
It acts as a scaffold to keep the artery open after the balloon is inflated and helps prevent narrowing (restenosis) of the artery.
Angioplasty is typically considered for individuals with significant coronary artery blockages, symptoms of angina, or those at high risk of a heart attack.
It is performed in a cardiac catheterization lab (cath lab) and usually does not require general anesthesia.
