A quick minimally invasive intervention to unblock your coronary arteries, save your heart and return to normal life without chest pain.
Send us your recent exams: coronarography (heart artery angiography), ECG, cardiac ultrasound, stress tests. Our interventional cardiologist analyzes the severity of coronary stenoses (narrowings) and determines if angioplasty is the best option versus bypass. Evaluates number of stents needed and appropriate drug-eluting stent type. You receive detailed intervention plan and transparent quote including fees, equipment (stents), hospitalization.
VIP transfer from airport to your hotel then to cardiology clinic. Reception by medical team. Pre-operative consultation with interventional cardiologist who explains precise procedure: radial (wrist) or femoral (groin) access, stent type, estimated duration. Complete blood test (coagulation, kidney function as iodinated contrast will be injected). Room installation. 6h fasting before intervention. Puncture area shaving if necessary.
Transfer to cardiac catheterization room (hemodynamics room). Installation on table under permanent cardiac monitoring. Local anesthesia at puncture point (wrist or groin). You are conscious throughout intervention. Cardiologist inserts catheter to coronary arteries. Contrast injection to visualize stenoses live on screen. Balloon guidance to blocked area, inflation to dilate, then drug-eluting stent deployment (spring that keeps artery open). Final blood flow verification. Total duration: 30-60 minutes depending on complexity.
Return to room under cardiac monitoring. Strict bed rest 4-6h if femoral access (to avoid bleeding at puncture point), or 2h if radial access. Manual or automatic compression of puncture area. Regular monitoring: blood pressure, pulse, ECG. Abundant hydration to eliminate iodinated contrast and protect kidneys. First walking authorized after medical validation. Light meal. Night of monitoring. Next morning: control blood test, ECG. If all is well, clinic discharge in afternoon. Medication prescription (mandatory antiplatelet agents for minimum 6-12 months).
Return to hotel for 2-3 days light rest in Tunisia. Gentle walking recommended (no intense effort). Follow-up consultation with cardiologist before departure: healing verification, anticoagulant treatment adjustment. Recommendations for life after angioplasty: healthy diet (reduced salt, saturated fats), mandatory smoking cessation, progressive physical activity (walking, light cycling after 1 week). Sedentary work resumption possible after 7-10 days, physical work after 2-3 weeks. Remote follow-up organized: teleconsultation at 1 month, then follow-up by your local cardiologist. Complete medical file transmission.
