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 |
