Our experienced cardiologists ensure precise and effective treatment, helping patients recover and lead healthier lives.
Angioplasty, also known as percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), is a minimally invasive procedure to open clogged or narrowed arteries. The process involves:
- Insertion of a Balloon: A tiny balloon is guided to the blockage site and inflated to widen the artery.
- Placement of a Stent: A small metal mesh tube (stent) is inserted to keep the artery open and maintain blood flow.
This procedure is commonly used to treat coronary artery disease (CAD) caused by plaque buildup in the arteries.
Symptoms of Angioplasty
Angioplasty may be necessary if you experience symptoms of restricted blood flow, including:
- Chest Pain (Angina): Pressure or tightness in the chest during physical activity or stress.
- Shortness of Breath: Difficulty breathing, especially during exertion.
- Fatigue: Persistent tiredness even with minimal activity.
- Palpitations: Irregular or rapid heartbeats.
- Heart Attack: Severe chest pain, nausea, sweating, and shortness of breath, requiring emergency intervention.
