Rotablation

Details

What is Rotablation?

Rotablation is an innovative interventional cardiology technique that involves the use of a specialized catheter with a tiny, diamond-tipped burr at its tip. During the procedure, this burr rotates at a high speed, effectively removing the plaque buildup within the coronary arteries. The primary objective of Rotablation is to enhance blood flow to the heart, promoting optimal cardiac function.

Why is Rotablation Done?

Rotablation is performed for various reasons, with the ultimate goal of improving coronary artery health and overall heart function. Some common indications for Rotablation include:

Severe Coronary Artery Disease

Rotablation is often recommended for patients with significant plaque buildup in their coronary arteries, leading to reduced blood flow to the heart muscle.

Calcified Lesions

When traditional angioplasty procedures may be challenging due to the presence of calcified lesions, Rotablation becomes a valuable tool in breaking down and removing such hardened deposits.

Chronic Angina

Individuals experiencing chronic angina, chest pain, or discomfort due to narrowed or blocked arteries may benefit from Rotablation to alleviate symptoms and enhance their quality of life.

Preparation for Stent Placement

Rotablation is frequently employed as a preparatory step before the placement of stents, ensuring optimal conditions for successful stent deployment.
