How can heart blockages be treated in the elderly?
Patient: my aunty is suffering from heart problem. yesterday we got her ngeogrphy report where it is being seen that she has 2 blockage out of 3 and the 3rd one is already 80% blocked. she is 70 years old and having high blood pressure. please suggest what to do now.. Doctor: Hello, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.With such type of presentation in my practice, I usually advise doing a procedure called CABG (Coronary artery bypass grafting) as it involves 3 arteries. I advise you discuss this with her cardiologist. He/she will know better what actions to take as he/she knows her full history. Best wishes
