Coronary Angioplasty
Coronary angioplasty is a common procedure done to release clogged arteries. Angioplasty can improve symptoms such as chest pain and shortness of breath.
Angioplasty is also done during a heart attack; this emergency procedure helps restore the heart’s capacity and reduces damage to the heart and risks.
A tiny balloon is inserted into the clogged artery and inflated at the spot where the artery is clogged, this helps in widening the artery and releasing the plaque that was blocking the artery.
