MPA2 catheter has the following main functions:
1. Diagnostic function: MPA2 catheter can be inserted into coronary artery to observe and evaluate the condition of vascular wall in real time. Through X-ray contrast technology, doctors can clearly see the degree of coronary artery stenosis and thrombosis, and help doctors diagnose coronary artery diseases.
2. The role of dilating stenotic blood vessels: If the doctor finds that the coronary artery is obviously stenotic or occluded, interventional therapy can be performed through MPA2 catheter. Special tools on the catheter, such as guide wires and stents, can help doctors dilate narrow blood vessels and restore smooth blood flow.
3. The role of stent placement: When the coronary artery is severely narrowed, a stent can be placed on the catheter to keep the blood vessels unobstructed. Stent is a metal mesh structure, which can dilate blood vessels, support blood vessel walls and prevent restenosis.
It should be noted that the use of MPA2 catheter needs to be operated by professionally trained and qualified doctors. In addition, catheter intervention has certain risks, including vascular injury, infection and allergic reaction. Communicate with the doctor in detail and understand the individual's specific situation before deciding whether to accept surgery.
