Coronary Angioplasty Treatment

Coronary angioplasty, also referred to as percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), is a minimally invasive procedure aimed at opening narrowed or blocked coronary arteries, thereby restoring blood flow to the heart muscle. Our advanced facility provides comprehensive coronary angioplasty services, delivered by a team of skilled cardiologists and cardiac specialists.

Understanding Coronary Angioplasty

Coronary angioplasty is an effective treatment for coronary artery disease, a condition characterized by plaque buildup in the coronary arteries. This procedure helps alleviate symptoms such as chest pain (angina) and shortness of breath by enhancing blood flow to the heart.

Key Steps in the Coronary Angioplasty Procedure

The coronary angioplasty procedure typically involves the following steps:Preparation: The patient is prepared in a dedicated catheterization laboratory (Cath Lab), where local anesthesia is administered at the incision site, usually in the leg, arm, or wrist.Catheter Insertion: A catheter is introduced into a blood vessel and guided toward the blocked coronary artery, using live X-ray imaging (fluoroscopy) for assistance.Blockage Identification: Contrast dye is injected through the catheter to help visualize the blockage in the coronary artery.Balloon Inflation: A balloon-tipped catheter is maneuvered to the blockage site and inflated to compress the plaque and expand the artery.Stent Placement: In many instances, a stent—a small wire-mesh tube—is placed in the artery to offer structural support and keep it open. Drug-eluting stents (DES) are coated with medication to help prevent the artery from re-narrowing.Completion: After successfully treating the blockage and placing the stent, the balloon is deflated, and the catheter is withdrawn.
