corner arteries are blood vessels that
take blood and oxygen to the heart
muscle itself if the blockages are very
excessive involved a lot of areas in the
circulation people may get chest
discomfort chest pains shortness of
breath
my name is dr. Matsu I'm an
interventional cardiologist and chairman
of cardiovascular medicine at the
Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi and also the
chief academic officer here I'm very
fortunate to work with four other
international cardiologists patients
should be evaluated careful we may
choose one of three ways one we may
treat the patients by medicine and
lifestyle changes number two we may
choose to treat the blockages withstand
store if the blockages are very
excessive involved a lot of areas in the
circulation we may choose to perform
bypass search if we choose stents we
call that type of treatment PCI that
stands for porcinis coronary
intervention meaning that we don't make
a cut but work through tiny holes from
growing or the risk and advance the kind
of counter take pictures of the blood
vessel supplying the heart and identify
the problem areas right here you see
blood vessel is narrowed by a plan to
build up in the wall in order to treat
this narrowing we threaded tiny wire
across it all this while we advance
along below and place it right across
the narrowing inflate the balloon that
expands the artery you take the balloon
out and we advance a stent mounted on a
balloon into the opening right across
the obstruction inflate the balloon
expand the stance that we deflate the
balloon take the balloon and the wire
out and we are left with an expanded
opens narrow
patient is transferred from the cath lab
to the ward and rest the remaining hours
of the day and then next day we check
the patient's access side we check the
blood work we check the EKG and if
everything is okay most of the time
we're able to send the patient home
after going home we make sure that they
take some of the medications very very
religiously but they will be able to
resume their daily activities very short
it's critically important patient
adheres to a healthy diet regular
exercise maintain an ideal body weight
and take this medication most will agree
that the heart disease is probably the
most threatening music that we know it
doesn't only kill it also leaves you
incapacitated or very limited
that's why I think that the early
detection and treatment of heart disease
is critically important we don't want
people to have heart attacks we don't
want people to tell them that so if they
