Q

Name the three techniques for PTCA

A

-balloon dilation -rotational atherectomy -directional atherectomy with laser

20
Q

Out of the three PTCA techniques, which is the most common?

A

Balloon dilation

21
Q

Which PTCA technique is used for central bulky lesions?

A

Rotational atherectomy

22
Q

Which PTCA technique is used for larger lesions but also has high risk for vessel damage?

A

Directional atherectomy with laser

23
Q

T/F: During PTCA procedures, the patient is often awake

A

True

24
Q

PCTA can improve what two things? What can it relieve?

A

It can improve functional capacity and quality of life. It can also relieve angina.

25
Q

T/F: Re-stenosis is not common after a PTCA procedure.

A

False, it occurs within in 6 months in 25% of patients

26
Q

Name the complications of PTCA (7)

A

-acute vessel closure -chronic re-stenosis -thrombotic distal embolism -myocardial infarction -arrhythmia -coronary artery dissection -bleeding

27
Q

What is stent therapy?

A

It is a procedure where a tube is inserted to keep an artery open

28
Q

What are the two types of stents used?

A

-bare metal stents -drug-eluting stents

29
Q

Stent therapy is often used in conjunction with what procedure?

A

PTCA procedure

30
Q

T/F: Drug-eluting stents can reduce acute complications and restenosis

A

True

31
Q

What does the drug-eluting stent prevent from happening?

A

It prevents the growth of scar tissue in the artery lining

32
Q

What does stent therapy relieve? What does it improve?

A

It relieves angina. It also improves functional capacity and quality of life.

33
Q

What’s the likelihood of restenosis for bare metal stents? For drug-eluting stents?

A

25-40% for bare metal, less than 10% for drug-eluting stents.

34
Q

What is the average hospital stay recommended for post CABS patients before a GXT is done?

A

2-5 days

35
Q

What is the average hospital stay recommended for post PTCA/stent patients before a GXT is done?

A

1-2 days

36
Q

What are the components on inpatient cardiac rehab? (3)

A

-ambulation -roll exercises -education

37
Q

T/F: Outpatients should not start cardiac rehab right away

A

False, they should start as early as possible

38
Q

T/F: Exercise can result in less restenosis following a PCI

A

True

39
Q

What is the reduction (percentage) in mortality risk as a result of exercise?

A

8-17%

40
Q

T/F: CABS patients usually experience faster progression when training

A

False, it is usually slower

41
Q

Initial CV training should have lower ____ and _____ before it is gradually increased (2)

A

-duration -intensity

42
Q

T/F: Initial CV training is not based on clinical status

A

False, it’s not based on GXT

43
Q

T/F: Later CV training is based on GXT

A

True

44
Q

T/F: Strength training is based on clinical status

A

True

45
Q

How long should CABS patients wait before starting strength training?

A

Ankle or wrist

47
Q

T/F: PCI patients should wait just as long as CABS patients before starting a strength training program

A

False, they should start immediately
