Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) or Angioplasty: Restoring Heart Health with Precision
Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI), commonly known as angioplasty, is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat coronary artery disease (CAD) and restore blood flow to the heart. At Zion Medic, we specialize in providing advanced cardiac care, including PCI procedures, to help our patients achieve optimal heart health and well-being.
Understanding PCI
PCI involves threading a thin catheter with a deflated balloon through a blood vessel to the blocked or narrowed coronary artery. Once in place, the balloon is inflated to compress the plaque buildup and widen the artery, restoring proper blood flow to the heart muscle. In some cases, a stent—a small mesh tube—is placed to help keep the artery open and prevent it from narrowing again.
Benefits of PCI:
- Rapid relief of symptoms such as chest pain (angina)
- Restoration of blood flow to the heart, reducing the risk of heart attack
- Minimally invasive procedure with shorter recovery times compared to traditional open-heart surgery
- Improved quality of life and ability to engage in daily activities with confidence
