Introduction: What we often call cardiac stent is coronary artery stent , which is a very commonly used medical device when performing cardiac interventional surgery.
Implanting a heart stent into the patient's heart can play a role in unblocking arterial blood vessels. There are many materials for heart stents, such as stainless steel, cobalt chromium alloy, etc. The cost of stent of different materials is also different.
However, during this period, such a report appeared, means cardiac stent surgery needs to stop because it has great risks.
When it was reported, it was also said that it was reported by Beijing TV station . The country will gradually stop using heart stents, but instead need to be clinically promoted, and other treatment methods are needed. Is this true or false?

Will the heart stent surgery be gradually stopped in China?
In fact, this statement appeared in 2019, and in recent times, many people have republished this statement on the Internet.
and claim that the method that needs to be changed is to use rotary abrasive powder to remove blood vessel plaques. This technology does exist in clinical practice, which is coronary arthromyography technology. is mainly a treatment method used for patients with coronary heart disease . When treating
, you can use a high-speed rotating rotating head with diamond particles to enter the place where calcified plaques appear in the blood vessels and grind them into particles smaller than red blood cells , so that as the blood can evacuate to the distal end of the coronary artery, plays a role in removing plaques.
stent implantation can allow coronary blood flow to be well reconstructed. This technology cannot obtain the benefits brought to patients by cardiac stent surgery, but is more in line with the implantation of cardiac stents.
So regarding the statement that our country has stopped using heart stents, is actually a rumor, Now heart stents are also a very common treatment method in our daily lives.

What conditions do you need to do cardiac stent surgery?
. When the patient has coronary stenosis exceeds 70%
cardiac stent implantation is mainly determined by the degree of stenosis of coronary . If stenosis is found during the relevant examination, it has exceeded 70%, and a variety of adverse symptoms appear. It is normal for blood vessel obstruction indicators, so heart stent implantation is needed.
. There is a high risk of ischemia
Some patients with mild angina pectoris or myocardial ischemia will have some discomfort. A 24-hour dynamic electrocardiogram test was performed and a relatively high risk of ischemia was found. If this situation occurs, a heart stent surgery is required, which can reduce the chance of fatal heart disease.
3. Angina pectoris is not effective in drug treatment
Under normal circumstances, angina pectoris will be treated first with drugs, However, if the treatment effect is not good, has a relatively large body harm, and you will choose to use heart stent surgery to achieve great improvement.
4. People with other diseases and blood vessels are blocked
If you have some other diseases and blood vessels are blocked, the easiest and direct method is to perform heart stent surgery. After implanting first, the coronary artery will be very unblocked, the blood supply will return to normal, and the organs can also obtain sufficient nutrition. is conducive to reducing the chance of complications.
Cardiac stent surgery is a relatively large operation. If this kind of surgery is performed, it means that the heart disease has developed to a certain extent. Therefore, patients undergoing cardiac stent surgery must pay attention to this operation and take relevant care after the surgery to avoid other problems.

What should I pay attention to after cardiac stent surgery?
. Intervention from the perspective of life . You should pay attention to low-salt and low-fat diet in your diet. You can participate in some sports appropriately, but do not exercise vigorously, arrange your work and life reasonably, maintain an optimistic mood, quit smoking and drinking, and control some high-risk factors for yourself, such as blood sugar blood lipid .
. Take some drugs regularly. In clinical practice, drugs that have certain improvement effects in patients with coronary heart disease include aspirin statins, etc. If there is no obvious situation, it needs to be taken for a long time.
3. Go to the hospital for regular review. . According to the doctor's arrangement, go to the hospital regularly to check some physical conditions, and check whether various indicators such as blood lipids and blood sugar are normal.
4. If you have some discomfort in your body, you must pay attention and go to the hospital to check as soon as possible. What exactly causes it.
