Patient's question:
I have coronary heart disease, and I have taken many medications with little effect. I would like to know how to treat coronary heart disease effectively.Doctor's answer:
Among the three treatment methods for coronary heart disease, each holds a certain position, possesses its own value, and often requires mutual supplementation and combined application. However, for patients with acute myocardial infarction, emergency stent placement can fully open the infarct-related artery in the early stage with a high success rate of restoring normal blood flow (90%–100%), and it also has the advantages of low residual stenosis and reocclusion rates in obstructed blood vessels. It can significantly reduce short-term mortality in patients and improve their quality of life. Therefore, for patients with acute myocardial infarction, direct catheter intervention treatment is superior to other treatment methods, significantly reducing in-hospital mortality and improving prognosis. The earlier the surgery is performed, the greater the benefits for the patient.
