Innovations in Angioplasty and EECP for Heart Health
Angioplasty is a technique that is generally used during a cardiac catheterization and is extremely similar to a diagnostic catheterization, where tubes or catheters are inserted up the prime blood vessel to the heart, and an x-ray dye is inserted to see at the arteries around the patient heart. If you have ever had a heart attack or failure or recurring angina, then you will be recommended to have an angioplasty.
At Chirayu Superspeciality Hospital, we offer EECP (Enhanced External Counter Pulsation) for heart failure, cardiomyopathy, or angina treatment. This procedure reduces ischemia symptoms and enhances patients’ quality of life through sessions lasting up to 35 hours.
EECP at our hospital uses ECG stickers to monitor heart rhythm. Cuffs inflate from calves to buttocks during diastole, improving blood flow non-invasively. It’s safe, cost-effective, and beneficial for unstable angina and post-revascularization therapy.
Preparing for EECP involves wearing tight-fitting clothing to prevent chafing and stopping tobacco use. Vital signs are checked, legs examined for vascular issues, and risks/benefits discussed before signing a consent form.

Frequently Asked Questions
Here, we provide answers to some of the most commonly asked questions to help you better understand our services, policies, and facilities. If you have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Enhanced External Counterpulsation (EECP) therapy is a non-invasive treatment that helps improve blood flow to the heart and relieve symptoms of angina and heart failure.
EECP therapy uses inflatable cuffs wrapped around the legs to compress and decompress the blood vessels, promoting increased blood flow to the heart during the relaxation phase of the heartbeat.
Patients with chronic stable angina, heart failure, or those who are not suitable candidates for invasive procedures like angioplasty or bypass surgery may benefit from EECP therapy.
EECP therapy can help reduce angina symptoms, improve exercise tolerance, enhance the quality of life, and decrease the need for medication in some patients.
Each EECP session typically lasts about one hour and is usually conducted five days a week for a total of seven weeks.
