Coronary stent placement is a specialized procedure designed to restore healthy blood flow in patients with narrowed or blocked coronary arteries. This condition, often caused by plaque accumulation (atherosclerosis), restricts oxygen-rich blood from reaching the heart muscle, leading to symptoms such as chest pain (angina), shortness of breath, and fatigue. If not addressed, these blockages can result in life-threatening events like a heart attack.
At ILS Hospitals, our cardiology experts utilize advanced, minimally invasive techniques to treat these blockages with precision. By performing the procedure under local anesthesia, typically through a small entry point in the wrist, we ensure a safer experience with significantly reduced recovery times.
Our Services
We combine clinical expertise with state-of-the-art technology to ensure the best possible outcomes for our patients. Our approach includes:
- Minimally Invasive Radial Access: By using the wrist as the primary entry point, we minimize scarring, discomfort, and post-operative complications compared to traditional methods.
- Balloon Angioplasty & Stenting: Our specialists use a tiny medical balloon to widen the blocked artery, followed by the placement of a permanent stent to keep the vessel open and maintain blood flow.
- Advanced Real-Time Imaging: We employ high-definition, real-time visualization to ensure the stent is positioned with absolute accuracy within the coronary architecture.
- Drug-Eluting Stents (DES): We utilize modern stents coated with specialized medication that is released over time to prevent the artery from re-narrowing (restenosis).
- 24/7 Emergency Cardiac Care: Our team is equipped to perform emergency stent placements for heart attack patients, where rapid intervention is critical to saving heart muscle.
