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 |
README.md exists but content is empty.
