The present is the first reported case of complex regional pain syndrome presenting as remote postprocedural complication of transfemoral coronary balloon angioplasty. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Noncompliance

  Before stenting, each lesion was predilated with a 2.5-mm or noncompliant 2.75-mm balloon, 20 mm in length. Balloon size was chosen to reach a balloon on artery ratio close to 1. Balloon Angioplasty Similar balloons were used for PTCA. [circ.ahajournals.org]

  Standard semi- and or noncompliant balloons, and if necessary, more specialised cutting or scoring balloons are used to achieve an adequate angiographic result. [icrjournal.com]

• Localized Pain

  Abstract Presently described is the case of a 55-year-old man who developed localized pain, allodynia, hyperpathia, and swelling over the right ankle joint following coronary balloon angioplasty, which had been performed via right femoral arterial access [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Pulsus Alternans

  Hemodynamic pulsus alternans of the aortic pressure tracing was not observed during electrical alternans. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Electrical Alternans

  Hemodynamic pulsus alternans of the aortic pressure tracing was not observed during electrical alternans. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

On the basis of these encouraging results, a multicenter, randomized trial with operators and patients blinded to treatment assignment is planned. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Gruentzig began a revolution in the treatment of coronary artery disease. By the 1970's, coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) had become an accepted treatment method for coronary artery disease. [med.emory.edu]

The major difference between DCB and other treatment options is that the DCB option does not require even a temporary implant. [icrjournal.com]

For patients with ACS undergoing percutaneous balloon angioplasty without coronary stenting in the era of platelet glycoprotein IIb/IIIa blockade, the long-term prognosis is less clear. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

After an invasive operation, drug therapy is continued to improve the prognosis. Often coronary angiography is immediately followed by balloon angioplasty. [hus.fi]

When successful, percutaneous coronary intervention can relieve chest pain of angina, improve the prognosis of individuals with unstable angina, and minimize or stop a heart attack without having the patient undergo open heart coronary artery bypass graft [bradentonheartcenter.com]

Outlook (Prognosis) For most people, angioplasty greatly improves blood flow through the coronary artery and the heart. It may help you avoid the need for coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG). [mountsinai.org]

In lesions needing adjunct balloon dilatation, lesion stretch was 73 +/- 27%, and elastic recoil was 22 +/- 18%, with no variation by etiology of the initial balloon failure. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
