Cardiac Catheterization and Stenting in Houston

Cardiac catheterization is an invasive technique used to identify for blockages of the coronary arteries. The procedure involves passing a small hollow tube through an artery in the leg or wrist to the heart where a dye is injected and X-ray pictures are taken. This allows for very accurate assessment of any blockages that may be present. Blockages found at the time of cardiac catheterization can frequently be treated using less invasive methods such as coronary stenting. Once a blockage is identified, a balloon is used to stretch open the narrowed artery. A stent (a tiny metal tube used to scaffold the artery) is frequently implanted following balloon angioplasty to keep the artery from collapsing. A cardiac catheterization procedure is difficult yet essential for patients who may be suffering from blocked or narrowed arteries. we provide expert counsel and care from the initial meeting about a cardiac catheterization procedure to follow-ups during cardiac catheterization recovery. Carotid stenting is an endovascular procedure used to re-open blocked carotid veins and prevent heart stroke. Since carotid stenting is minimally invasive, it gives an incredible treatment alternative to patients with carotid artery disease who are high- risk possibility for endarterectomy surgery. Carotid stenting is FDA-endorsed for forestalling strokes in patients who are at high risk for carotid endarterectomy. We provide the best cardiac catheterization and stenting in Houston.
