Advantages of EECP Treatment over Bypass Surgery and Angioplasty.

"AN APPLE A DAY KEEPS THE DOCTOR AWAY ;
EECP TREATMENT FOR 35 DAYS KEEPS YOUR HEART DISEASE AWAY."

All the treatment strategies for coronary artery disease, whether it is invasive or non-invasive, bypass or angioplasty or EECP or it is medical management, these strategies basic is to improve the blood flow to heart muscles across the blocked arteries. So if you want to increase the blood supply across the blocked arteries in a simple way, EECP is the only solution.

EECP is a non-invasive treatment.
It does not involve any invasive procedure and does not involve any injection.
It is highly cost-effective.

When compared with existing modalities of treatment like PTCA and CABG. It costs 1/4th of the cost of bypass surgery and angioplasty. But it can provide the same relief in symptoms and the same improvement in quality of life. What a CABG and PTCA can offer. Since EECP is non-invasive it does not involve any injury or complications or adverse effects when compared to PTCA and CABG.

Even though invasive treatments are effective in a certain group of patient, it also carries a high risk of procedural complication and post-operative complications. In certain conditions, CABG surgery may cause a stroke. Sometimes it causes a reduction of memory loss and many times delay in wound healing may take place. Here EECP is absolutely a non – invasive and does not have to involve any injury. So the patient can able to go to work every day after a one-hour treatment. So overall when compared to the advantages of cardiac treatment, EECP provides improvement similar to what invasive surgery can offer. So as a physician I would recommend EECP as the first option for the patient with coronary artery disease to improve their quality of life and improve myocardial blood flow beyond the blocked artery. If EECP may not able to provide symptomatic improvement, quality of life improvement, and prevent recurrent hospitalization and then I may consider other invasive options. In our experience with optimal medical management and EECP in a patient with the stable condition, more than 90%of the patient may not need to go for an interventional procedure.

Wearing a Holter Monitor: What to Expect and What It Reveals

If you’ve ever experienced unexplained dizziness, tiredness, or irregular heartbeats, your doctor may recommend a 24-hour Holter monitor test . While the name might sound technical, the concept is simple. This test helps your cardiologist understand what’s going on with your heart when you're away from the hospital and going about your day. Learning about how this device functions and what it shows you can assist in alleviating your concerns and make you better prepared for the experience. What Is a Holter Monitor? A Holter monitor is a small, portable, wearable machine that records your heart's electrical activity over a period of time—typically 24 to 48 hours. It is different from the usual ECG performed in the clinic that takes only seconds. The Holter monitor keeps recording your heart's rhythm round the clock while you carry out your daily activities. Doctors employ it to identify abnormalities that aren't always visible on short ECGs. These may include o...

Daily Water Intake: How Much is Too Much or Too Little?

Water is life, and it constitutes approximately 60% of the human body and aids in digestion, circulation, maintaining a normal temperature, and the process of detoxification. But how much is one supposed to drink? While hydration is key, the notion that the more water, the better is a myth that many people believe. Numerous individuals follow the "8 glasses a day" prescription or have the myth that too much water drinking cleanses toxins out of their body, is better for the skin, eliminates headaches, and also contributes to losing weight. Is this supported by science or ar they only myths? Doctors commonly advise remaining hydrated for several reasons, but drinking too much water can have just as adverse an effect as dehydration. Though the body maintains a very effective mechanism for regulating water levels, ignoring the signal to drink or pressuring one's self to consume more than their body can hold can prove catastrophic, especially in individuals with cer...

EECP: A Heart Treatment with Broader Benefits?

Enhanced External Counterpulsation (EECP) has long been recognized as a non-invasive, non-surgical therapy for relieving angina and improving blood flow to the heart. But new research indicates that EECP may offer far more benefits than previously understood. From supporting kidney function to enhancing blood flow to the brain and limbs, EECP could be a promising supportive treatment for various non-cardiac conditions as well. Let’s explore how EECP works and the broader therapeutic effects it may offer. How EECP Works EECP therapy involves placing pneumatic cuffs around the legs, thighs, and hips. These cuffs inflate and deflate in synchronization with the heartbeat. During diastole (when the heart is resting), the cuffs inflate, pushing blood back toward the heart. During systole (when the heart contracts), the cuffs deflate, reducing the heart's workload. This timed compression: Enhances venous return Increases oxygen delivery to the heart Reduces cardiac ...
