Our interventional cardiology team specializes in stent placement to treat coronary artery disease. Stents are small, expandable mesh tubes that help keep arteries open after angioplasty procedures. We offer:

• Emergency stent placement for heart attacks

• Elective stenting for chronic coronary disease

• Drug-eluting stents (coated with medication)

• Bare-metal stents (for certain cases)

The stenting procedure involves:

1. Guiding a catheter to the blocked artery

2. Inflating a balloon to open the blockage

3. Placing the stent to keep artery open

4. Removing the catheter while stent remains

Benefits of our stent services include:
✓ Minimally invasive approach
✓ Immediate improvement in blood flow
✓ Reduced chest pain (angina)
✓ Lower risk of future heart attacks
✓ Faster recovery than bypass surgery

After stent placement, we provide:
• Close follow-up care
• Medication management
• Cardiac rehabilitation
• Lifestyle modification guidance

Our team uses the latest stent technologies and imaging techniques to ensure optimal results. We develop personalized treatment plans that may include medications along with stenting to provide comprehensive care for your heart health.
