EECP Therapy in Pune - Non surgical Heart treatment

EECP Therapy for Heart Diseases

EECP therapy is a non-surgical treatment designed to improve blood flow to the heart and reduce symptoms of heart disease. It is commonly used for patients with angina or coronary artery disease who are looking for a safe and effective alternative to invasive procedures. By enhancing circulation and supporting natural bypass formation, EECP therapy helps improve heart function and overall quality of life.

EECP therapy treatment to improve blood flow in heart patients

EECP therapy is a non-surgical approach for improving heart function and perfusion. If alternative treatments have failed to relieve angina or chest pain symptoms, EECP treatment may be explored. By encouraging the growth of tiny branches, it forms a natural detour around constricted or obstructed arteries.

Working of EECP Therapy

The EECP for heart block is part of our Cardiology program and involves wearing a series of cuffs on both legs. It gently but thoroughly compresses the blood arteries in the lower limbs, which increases blood flow into the heart. Each pressure wave is electronically synchronized to the heartbeat to ensure that your heart receives enhanced blood flow at regular intervals. When the heart beats again, the pressure is released instantly, lowering resistance in the blood arteries in the legs and promoting easy blood pumping from your heart. EECP may open tiny or collateral blood channels in the heart, which may eventually become and natural bypasses & veins. This increased blood supply to the cardiac muscles also relieves chest pain.

Benefits of EECP Therapy

  • Decreases the symptoms of angina
  • Increases energy and exercise tolerance
  • Improves blood circulation by increasing collateral blood circulation.
  • Safe, effective, and approved by cardiologists

Who is eligible for ECP therapy?

EECP therapy in Pune aims to treat heart patients who:
  • Have chronic, stable angina.
  • Have a history of heart disease or poor blood circulation
  • Patients who did not experience the relief with Nitrates, calcium channel blockers and beta-blockers drugs.
  • Are the safest option for patients not fit for invasive measures such as angioplasty, stent  or bypass surgery.
