Angioplasty at NMC Specialty Hospital, Dubai

Angioplasty, is also known as balloon angioplasty and percutaneous transluminal angioplasty, is a minimally invasive endovascular procedure used to widen narrowed or obstructed arteries or veins, typically to treat arterial atherosclerosis.

Coronary angioplasty (AN-jee-o-plas-tee), also called percutaneous coronary intervention, is a procedure used to open clogged heart arteries. Angioplasty uses a tiny balloon catheter that is inserted in a blocked blood vessel to help widen it and improve blood flow to the heart.

Angioplasty is often combined with the placement of a small wire mesh tube called a stent. The stent helps prop the artery open, decreasing its chance of narrowing again. Most stents are coated with medication to help keep the artery open (drug-eluting stents). Rarely, bare-metal stents are used.

Angioplasty can improve symptoms of blocked arteries, such as chest pain and shortness of breath. Angioplasty is also often used during a heart attack to quickly open a blocked artery and reduce the amount of damage to the heart.

What you need to know about Angioplasty in Dubai

Angioplasty is a minimally invasive procedure to widen the blocked arteries and veins of the body and it is also known as balloon angioplasty. It is mainly a treatment option for atherosclerosis, with this disease, fat plaques are deposited into your blood vessels and it can be deposited in both arteries and veins. With this method, a catheter and a balloon are inserted into your body through a blood vessel. Once the catheter enters your body, it is moved to the site of blockage; there the balloon is inflated to open up the clogged blood vessel. Sometimes, the balloon is inflated and deflated again and again to increase the diameter of the blood vessel.

Blocked blood vessels can pose a number of threats to your health and for example, coronary artery blockage can lead to severe chest pain, shortness of breath and ultimately to a heart attack. Coronary artery stenosis is the most common type of artery stenosis. Balloon angioplasty puts pressure on the vessel wall to open it up to increase the blood flow.

Also, see Coronary Angioplasty for the surgical procedure performed to widen blocked or narrowed coronary arteries.

Not everyone can be treated using angioplasty and some people have to go through surgery to get their narrowed vessels treated. Visit your health care provider to find out what can work for you, discuss your health history, expectations, and pros and cons of the procedure before opting for it, and patients with multiple blockages usually need surgery.

What's the Recovery Time for Angioplasty Procedures in Dubai?

The healing period post a Angioplasty tends to vary among individuals, thoroughly influenced by their personal health conditions and the complexity of the procedure carried out. Additionally, recovery time also relies on the specific type of blood vessel treated and its purpose within the body. For instance, in the case of a coronary angioplasty, a mere week suffices for recovery allowing the resuming of regular activities. Conversely, if the angioplasty is performed post a heart attack, the healing phase could stretch out further. Generally, some level of discomfort, weariness, or visible inflammation around the incision spot may be anticipated for several days. 

The total recuperation phase, accounting for the healing of the incision site and reaching the optimal performance of the treated vessel, can span across several weeks. It becomes essential to stringently follow all directives given post the procedure, which includes administration of prescribed medicines, frequent medical examinations, disciplined physical activities, and dietary restrictions, to ensure the recovery process progresses without hiccups.

What's the Success Rate of Angioplasty Procedures in Dubai?

The effectiveness of Angioplasty in Dubai is typically considerable, with notable improvement in symptoms and enhanced life quality for patients. Angioplasty procedure has had a tremendous success rate in previous years. Coronary stenosis, the success rate is 90% if it is performed to treat angina. In cases of both angina and heart attack under emergency conditions, the success rate is good at 64%.
