Coronary Angioplasty :
Coronary angioplasty is a minimally invasive procedure of dilatation of narrowed or occluded coronary arteries responsible for blood supply to the heart muscle. In this procedure the catheter at its end holding a tiny balloon is injected into the affected artery where it inflates and then widens the artery and increases the supply flow of blood towards the heart muscle. A stent or small mesh tube is often placed to keep the artery open. Angioplasty can be done using local anesthetic that cuts down the recovery time as compared to traditional surgery. The treatment is mainly for patients suffering from coronary artery disease experiencing chest pains or heart attacks. It eradicates symptoms and has the effect of bringing down the likelihood of having to contend with heart attacks down the line by restoring effective blood flow in the heart.
