Coronary angioplasty through Radial approach and Femoral approach

Coronary Angioplasty Treatment in Mysore

Overview 

Coronary angioplasty at Manipal Hospital Mysore restores blood flow through balloon dilatation and stent deployment during acute myocardial infarction, stable angina, or high-risk lesions. Performed via radial or femoral access under local anesthesia, PTCA precisely targets blockages using intravascular imaging guidance. Angioplasty treatment in Mysore offers rapid revascularisation, symptom relief, and mortality reduction through advanced cath lab facilities and experienced interventional cardiologists.

How It Works 

The coronary angioplasty procedure at Manipal Hospital Mysore occurs in a purpose-built cath lab designed to maximise both precision and safety. In most cases, the operator accesses the patient's body via the radial artery (located in the wrist), but in select scenarios, the groin is used to access the body.

Once the numbness of the wrist or groin has been established with local anaesthetic, the operator gently guides multiple thin catheters down through live imaging to pass through to the heart.

After identifying where the artery is narrowed, a fine wire is passed through the blockage. After that, a small balloon is inflated through the wire to increase the size of the blocked section of the artery (the balloon will then help prepare the area for the eventual placement of a stent). A stent is placed during the procedure and is coated with medications to help avoid the re-narrowing of the treated area, and when the stent is fully expanded to the blockage site, the stent will remain in the body to keep the artery open. Advanced imaging technology may be utilised by the operator to ensure that the stent fits properly and that normal blood flow will be restored to the treated area.

Upon completion of the angioplasty, the operator will remove the catheters themselves and secure the entry site. Most procedures take less than 90 minutes to complete; in many instances, patients who were stable after the procedure are able to walk within hours of leaving the operating room. In contrast, patients who had undergone an angioplastic procedure following a heart attack needed to be more closely monitored prior to returning home.

Benefits 

Coronary angioplasty in Mysore delivers immediate revascularisation, saving the heart muscle during critical blockages at Manipal Hospital.

  • Restores flow within minutes, preventing infarction expansion.

  • Drug-eluting stents prevent restenosis effectively in the  long term.

  • Radial access reduces bleeding complications significantly.

  • Outpatient recovery for stable elective procedures.

What to Expect 

Angioplasty treatment in Mysore follows a structured pathway ensuring comfort and safety throughout the procedure at Manipal Hospital.

  • Pre-Procedure Preparation
    Fasting 4-6 hours; radial shave if needed; consent explaining risks; premedication for anxiety.

  • Access & Sedation
    Local anaesthetic radial puncture; conscious sedation; continuous ECG, oxygen saturation monitoring.

  • During Angioplasty
    Brief pressure sensations during balloon inflation; live fluoroscopy projection; stent deployment feels momentary.

  • Post-Procedure Care
    TR band 2-4 hours; dual antiplatelets commenced; discharge same day (elective) or 24 hours (ACS).
