Angioplasty in Pune
Angioplasty in Pune at Manipal Hospitals is a minimally invasive cardiac procedure used to treat narrowed or blocked coronary arteries, improving blood flow and heart function. Skilled interventional cardiologists perform the procedure using catheter-based methods and real-time imaging for accuracy. The process includes diagnostic assessment, controlled balloon dilation, and, if necessary, stent placement. Emphasis is placed on patient safety, evidence-based protocols, and effective post-procedure care to support cardiac recovery and long-term health.

How It Works
-
Initial cardiac assessment: ECG, echocardiography, and blood tests are conducted to evaluate heart function and detect possible arterial blockages.
-
Diagnostic angiography: A thin catheter is carefully inserted through the wrist (radial) or groin (femoral) artery under local anaesthesia.
-
Contrast dye administration: A medical-grade dye is injected to make the coronary arteries visible on X-ray imaging for precise blockage identification.
-
Balloon catheter positioning: A balloon-tipped catheter is guided to the site of narrowing using real-time imaging for accuracy.
-
Balloon inflation: The balloon is inflated briefly to compress the plaque against the artery wall, improving blood flow.
-
Stent placement (if required): A small mesh tube called a stent may be placed to help keep the artery open long-term.
-
Catheter removal: Once the artery is treated, the catheter is withdrawn, and gentle pressure is applied to control bleeding.
-
Recovery phase: The patient is shifted to a monitored area for observation, ensuring heart rhythm and blood flow remain stable.
-
Post-procedure care: Guidance includes medication review, physical activity precautions, and scheduled follow-up to support sustained cardiovascular recovery.

What to Expect
Before Test
1. Cardiac evaluation includes ECG, echocardiography, and blood tests to assess heart health and locate arterial narrowing. 2. Patients receive detailed instructions regarding fasting, ongoing medications, and consent documentation. 3. The cardiology team explains the angioplasty procedure, expected duration, possible risks, and recovery guidelines to ensure informed participation.
During Test
1. Local anaesthesia is applied at the catheter insertion site, usually at the wrist (radial) or groin (femoral) artery. 2. A fine catheter is introduced and guided through the arteries using continuous X-ray imaging. 3. The balloon at the catheter tip is inflated to open the blocked artery, with a stent placed if required to maintain patency. 4. The procedure generally lasts between 30 minutes and two hours, depending on the complexity of arterial blockages.
After Test
1. Patients are transferred to a monitored recovery area for several hours to observe heart rhythm and blood pressure stability. 2. The insertion site is dressed, and specific activity restrictions are discussed to prevent bleeding. 3. Before discharge, patients receive medication guidance, follow-up instructions, and lifestyle advice on heart-healthy diet, physical activity, and smoking cessation to support long-term cardiovascular wellness.

Frequently Asked Questions
Angioplasty is a minimally invasive cardiac procedure that opens narrowed or blocked coronary arteries using a balloon or stent. It helps restore blood flow, reduce chest pain, prevent heart attacks, and improve overall heart function and circulation.
The angioplasty procedure typically lasts 30 minutes to two hours, depending on the number of affected arteries and blockage complexity. Duration may also vary based on whether stent placement or additional imaging guidance is required during the intervention.
