The coronary arteries are the blood vessels that supply to your heart, and a coronary angiogram is an X-ray imaging procedure to view them. This examination is frequently carried out to check for heart-blood flow obstructions. Heart (cardiac) catheterizations are another name for it. Both identifying and treating heart and blood vessel problems are accomplished with this procedure. There are many hospitals for Coronary Angiogram and Dania Medicare solutions is one of the best. Average coronary angiogram treatment cost in India is approximately 12,000 in India. But it depends on the criteria as well.
Purpose of Coronary Angiogram:
You will be advised by the Dania Medicare solutions doctors to have Coronary Angiography if you have:
- Chest discomfort is one of the symptoms of coronary artery disease (angina).
- If no other tests can explain your chest, jaw, neck, or arm pain, consult a doctor.
- Chest pain that has developed or is getting worse (unstable angina)
- You were born with a cardiac problem (congenital heart disease)
- Abnormal findings from a non-invasive heart stress test
- A chest injury or further blood vessel issues
- An operating-related issue with the heart valve
Angiograms are often conducted only after noninvasive heart tests like an electrocardiogram, an echocardiography, or a stress test have been completed because of the slight risk of problems.
Right doctor:
A cardiac surgeon is the best doctor to consult for coronary angiograms.
Risks:
A coronary angiography carries some hazards, such as exposure to radiation from the X-rays used, as do most operations performed on your heart and blood vessels. Though they are uncommon, major difficulties. Risks and issues that could arise include:
- Heart attack
- Stroke
- Catheterized artery injury
- Irregular heart rhythms (arrhythmias)
- Various dye or medications related allergic reactions
- Kidney damage
- Excessive bleeding
- Infection
Before the procedure:
The cardiac surgeon at Dania Medicare solutions will go over your health history, including any allergies and drugs you use, before the angiography process begins. Your blood pressure and pulse may be checked as part of the team’s physical examination.
In addition, you’ll change into a hospital gown and empty your bladder. Contact lenses, glasses, jewelry, and hairpins might need to be taken off.
During the procedure:
On an X-ray table, you lie on your back to undergo the process. Safety straps may be put across your chest and legs because the operating table may tilt during the surgery. In order to capture the images from different angles, the cameras used for X-ray moves from top to cover your chest and head.
Your arm’s vein receives an IV line insertion. A sedative, as well as other drugs and fluids, may be administered to you via the IV to aid in relaxation. During the process, you might nod off due to extreme fatigue, but you’ll still be able to be readily roused from your slumber so that you can follow any instructions.
Throughout the operation, electrodes on your chest track the activity of your heart. Your blood pressure is monitored with a blood pressure cuff, and the amount of oxygen in your blood is determined using a pulse oximeter. Your arm or groin, where a flexible tube (catheter) will be put, may need to have a tiny bit of hair shaved off of it. After being cleaned and disinfected, the region is numbed with a local anesthetic injection.
In order to implant the short plastic tube (sheath) into your artery, a small incision is made at the entry site. The sheath is used to implant the catheter into your blood vessel, where it is then gently threaded to your heart or coronary arteries.
After the procedure:
When the angiography is finished, the catheter is taken out of your arm or groin, and the incision is then sealed by manual pressure, a clamp, or a tiny plug.
For observation and monitoring, you will be brought to a recovery area. You return to your own room where you are periodically checked once your condition is stabilized.
If the catheter was implanted in the groin, you must stay still and flat for a number of hours to stop any bleeding. To stop bleeding and encourage healing during this period, pressure may be applied to the incision.
Depending on your condition, you could be allowed to leave the hospital that day or you might have to stay the night. Drink a lot of water to help your body rid itself of the color. Take a bite to eat if you’re feeling hungry.
