Complex coronary interventions are minimally invasive procedures designed to open blocked or clogged coronary arteries. These are the vessels that supply oxygen-rich blood to your heart muscle. Blockages can occur due to plaque build-up, a condition known as atherosclerosis. CMCA, CTO, and Bifurcation Stenting utilise thin, flexible tubes called catheters to reach the blocked artery. A tiny balloon is then inflated within the blockage to open it, often followed by a stent placement – a small mesh tube that helps keep the artery open. These procedures can improve blood flow to the heart, reducing chest pain and shortness of breath. Depending upon the complexities and severity the procedure may take anywhere from one to three.
FAQ's
Maintaining a healthy weight, eating a balanced diet, exercising regularly, managing stress, and quitting smoking are all essential steps towards a healthy heart. It is also recommended to monitor your heart with regular ECG, ECO or treadmill tests, even if no symptoms are present.
Open-heart surgery involves a traditional surgical approach with a larger incision. Minimally invasive procedures use smaller incisions and catheters to access the heart, often leading to quicker recovery times.
Cardiac procedures offer a range of treatment options to improve your heart health. While all medical procedures involve some potential risks, your doctor will carefully review these with you to ensure you understand the potential risks before recommending any specific treatment.
Recovery time varies depending on the specific procedure. Your healthcare partner will provide you with a personalized recovery timeline and instructions.
CABG is an open-heart surgery that redirects blood flow around blocked coronary arteries.
Perform CPR if someone is unconscious and not breathing normally. Check for breathing by looking, listening, and feeling for chest movement for no more than 10 seconds.
Success rates for CMCA, CTO, and bifurcation stenting vary depending on the complexity of the blockage and other individual factors. However, advancements in technology and techniques have led to significant improvements. Your doctor can discuss the expected success rates for your specific case.
