Stent Or Bypass? Heart Wreath Vessels – Pressure Measurement

‘Per patient could save in the cutting of a stent’ stent or bypass? Who will be a heart patient before this question, often opts for a stent. Finally, that tiny metal lattice that supports narrowed heart wreath containers from the inside, is directly in the heart wreath vessel implant as opposed to the bypass without major cuts on the vein in the groin or arm. But Stents are not completely unproblematic about with regard to the formation of blood clots. A risk that completely unnecessary explains how in many cases, such as Dr. med.

Waldemar Bojen Sankar, senior physician at the clinic for cardiology and Angiology, and Director of the cardiac catheterization laboratory at the hospital “Bergmannsheil” in Bochum, in an interview with the online health magazine explains rheinruhrmed.de. In Germany, approximately 300,000 operations be carried per year, of which nearly 90 percent stent implantations. If it is conservatively estimated, then it must be said that every fifth (20 percent) intervention definitely to not improve the Quality of life of patients results”, so Dr. Bojen Sankar. “In short: the average a stent could be saving per patient as recently the results of the FAME study have shown.” This means that many patients who will be sent in the operation because they have such as three vessels with constrictions, patients are actually, have only one or two vessels with constrictions that are really important. This can be quite in advance, if a bottleneck in the heart wreath vessels ever needed a stent as a treatment by means of the so-called intrakoronaren pressure measurement”(FFRmyo).
