Percutaneous Treatment for Ischemic Heart Disease

  1. Treatments
  2. Cardiology
  3. Percutaneous Treatment for Ischemic Heart Disease
Ischemic heart disease (IHD) or myocardial ischaemia, is characterized by a reduced blood supply of the heart muscle, mostly due to coronary artery disease.  It is more common in men, especially those who have a close relative with this disease, and its risk increases with age, smoking, high cholesterol levels, diabetes, and hypertension.

IHD can be diagnosed with an electrocardiogram, blood tests (cardiac markers), cardiac stress testing or a coronary angiogram.  Treatment may be with medication, percutaneous coronary intervention (angioplasty) or coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) depending on the case.

It is the most common cause of death in most Western countries, and a major cause of hospital admissions. A healthy diet and sometimes medication for diabetes, cholesterol and high blood pressure are used to prevent IHD and to decrease the risk of complications.
