Raipur: For the first time in the state, the arteries that have been closed due to the accumulation of calcium in the heart veins have been successfully treated. At the same time, this treatment has been done in Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar Hospital using an intravascular shockwave lithotripsy method. At the same time, in this operation done at the Advanced Cardiac Institute, a 62-year-old woman has been successfully treated by breaking the calcium in the heart veins through high sound waves.

Cardiologist and Head of Department ACI Dr. Smt Srivastava have informed that - Bypass surgery was required to remove the calcium in the veins earlier. This method was limited to metro cities until now and was quite out of the reach of common people due to its high cost. At the same time, the patient was treated under Dr. Khubchand Baghel Health Assistance Scheme in the state. This patient needs a bypass at the age of 62, but our team used this method to dissolve the calcium in his vein and extract it by shocking it with a balloon. So far, this is the second procedure of the government hospital in the country.

Dr. Smit Srivastava - The first balloon is put in this method. Balloon is placed in the vein of the heart where there is calcium. Through it, 40 to 80 shock waves are given, which crush and remove calcium. After this, angioplasty and stenting becomes easier. Angioplasty is done by removing calcium first by the lithotripsy method. It is also called arthroplasty. Very low pressure is used to remove calcium fragments so that there is no possibility of injury to the blood vessel. Calcium breaks down easily. The patient does not have much pain and there is no damage to the normal tissue and arteries.
