What you need to know about Coronary Angioplasty in Kuala Lumpur

Coronary Angioplasty is a non-surgical procedure to open up clogged coronary arteries and it is also known as percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Coronary arteries provide blood to heart tissue. In this method, a balloon is temporarily inserted into the blocked artery and inflated to increase its diameter. Blocked coronary artery causes chest pain and shortness of breath, Angioplasty helps reduce both these problems. Also, it is performed during the treatment of a heart attack to open up the arteries rapidly. It prevents damage to your heart and Coronary arteries are end arteries. Once they are blocked, there is no anastomosis to provide an alternative and as a result, the cardiac muscles die. This poses a lot of risks to your health.

It is primarily a treatment for atherosclerosis, with this disease; fat plaques are deposited into the coronary arteries. Angioplasty is chosen when lifestyle changes and medicines do not work and if the plaque continues to deposit, several health problems are initiated.

Not everyone can go for an angioplasty. If you have plaques in multiple arteries a coronary bypass surgery is chosen. Similarly, if you are suffering from other diseases such as diabetes, surgery is recommended. 

What's the Recovery Time for Coronary Angioplasty Procedures in Kuala Lumpur?

The recovery period following a Coronary Angioplasty can differ among individuals, though generally, most can anticipate returning to their regular activities within a week. In the recovery phase, patients may experience fatigue and slight unease in the area of catheter entry.

During this healing time, the emphasis should be on heart health. This involves adhering to a heart-friendly diet, engaging in doctor-recommended regular physical exercises, managing stress effectively, and refraining from tobacco use. It's also vital to comply with all medication instructions to avoid the formation of blood clots and manage any pre-existing conditions such as hypertension or high cholesterol levels.

What's the Success Rate of Coronary Angioplasty Procedures in Kuala Lumpur?

Research shows that Coronary Angioplasty is a highly successful treatment for coronary heart disease. In fact, the procedure is successful over 95% of cases, according to the NHS. Success, in this case, is defined as significantly improved blood flow to the heart muscle and considerable relief from symptoms such as chest pain and shortness of breath. However, the long-term success of a Coronary Angioplasty often depends on the individual's commitment to lifestyle changes and medication adherence.

It is also important to note that not every patient with coronary heart disease is a suitable candidate for the procedure. Factors such as the location and extent of the blockage, the patient's overall health, and whether or not they have had previous heart surgery play an important role in the potential success of the Coronary Angioplasty.
