  • am glad..Txs

  • Yes, Fully Awake..The procedure was done under Local Anesthesia.

  • wow!!! how did the cardiologist even reached so distally with the guidewire. What guidewire did he used?

  • txs for ur comments. It was a thrombotic lesion amd the patient was given loading dose 600mg of clopidogrel and abciximab which made it very easy for a BMW guide wire to cross the lesion. Dr Dagli Bombay

  • Distal vessel appears to need a little more work,  is this slow-flow phenomenon or is there still thrombus? Would you consider a suction catheter instead of running the balloon up and down?

  • remeber my friend better is enemy of good in AMI setting.

  • This is so important to watch especially for me...i'm overweight and i eat fatty foods...i'm glad i watched this.

    Its a good "wake up call" for me.

  • this procedure saved my husband's life today.thank you to the heart pioneers!

  • are diagnostic catheters still performed nowadays ? or did their role decline ?

    Also what skills do i need to become interventional cardiologist?

    Thanks a lot for the vid !!

  • @svdagli Excellent video!

  • As I can see, is the right coronary artery.

    I had mine angioplasty 3 days ago, the blockage was just before the ramification you may see after 0.25 sec on the video.

    I'm home evereything is ok.

    Respect to the doctors all over the world and thanks for posting!

  • It this a total occlusion? In the beggining the whole heart is deprived of blood...Lucky patient to get an angiogram so soon!
