Coronary stents: Frequently-asked questions
Coronary stents may be required for patients that have developed a narrowing in the heart's blood supply, leading to tightness in the chest or chest pain. They can also be inserted in an emergency situation when a patient has had a heart attack, and the obstruction needs to be cleared. Professor Michael Mahmoudi, a highly-esteemed consultant cardiologist, explains all about stents, including what they're compose of, how they are inserted, how long they last for, and how patients are affected.
