2. WHAT IS ANGIOPLAST Y
Angioplasty is a medical
technology used unblock blood
vessels, most commonly the
coronary artery.
Angioplasty is an minimally
invasive medical procedure
that involves inserting a small
wire with a balloon at the end
into an blocked blood vessel.
Inflation of the balloon opens
up the blockage.
Two types of angioplasty
include balloon and balloon
with a stent.
3. WHAT IS ANGIOPLAST Y USED FOR?
The most common use of
angioplasty is for
treatment of coronary
artery disease (CAD).
Less common uses would
include unblocking
arteries in the
abdomen, renal
system, neck and limbs.
Angioplasty is the most
common emergency
treatment for acute
myocardial infarctions
(heart attack).
4. HOW IS THIS A TECHNOLOGICAL
ADVANCEMENT
Angioplasty has become leading edge in treatment of patients
experiencing a sudden heart attack.
Angioplasty can be done within hours of the onset of a heart
attack and will give the best prognosis.
The surgery is minimal, patients will usually only end up with
a small incision on their thigh.
Patients can receive a stent in their blood vessel which will
allow for increased structure of the vein or artery.

6. DISEASES TREATED:
CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE
Atherosclerosis is a build up of plaque over time on the walls
of the arteries of the heart, caused by increased blood
cholesterol levels.
Symptoms include: Chest pain that can radiate to arms and
jaw (Angina) and Shortness of breath.
Complications: Heart attack, Heart failure and arrhythmias.
Causes: Sedentary life style, obesity, smoking, family
history, high blood pressure and high cholesterol or blood
sugar.
7. DISEASES TREATED CONT’D:
ACUTE MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION (AMI)
Acute myocardial infarction also known as a heart attack is
when atherosclerotic build up in the arteries rupture and
cause a blood clot to block the blood flow to the heart.
Symptoms include: Chest pain that radiates to the arms and
jaw, shortness of breath, sweating, nausea and
vomiting, dizziness, weakness, rapid or irregular heart beat.
Complications: arrhythmias, heart failure, valve problems and
death.
Causes: Heart disease, Coronary artery disease.
8. HOW ANGIOPLAST Y IS PREFORMED
The surgeon will make a incision in the groin to a main artery
after numbing the area and relaxing the patient with
medication.
A flexible wire will be inserted in the artery and fed up to the
blockage in the heart. Live x -rays will show the surgeon where
to go.
The wire will be pushed through the blockage and a small
balloon will be inflated to open up the blockage.
A stent ( wire mesh) may be left in place to keep the artery
open.
The wire is removed.
Blood flow is increased to the body when artery is opened.
The incision will be closed and bleeding controlled.
Patient will begin recovery.
9. WHAT IS A STENT
The stent is a small
tube made of a metal
mesh.
It is used to treat
weak or narrowed
blood vessels.
Stents are permanent
and implanted using
angioplasty.
Some stents are
coated in a slow
release medication
that helps prevent
arteries from
becoming blocked.

11. PATIENT OUTCOMES
This is a look at patient outcomes with angioplasty vs. bypass surgery. You
can see that angioplasty is always more successful.
