  • High-volume cath lab experience

  • Published clinical outcomes data

Frequently asked questions

Which accreditation bodies certify hospitals for angioplasty in India?
NABH (National Accreditation Board for Hospitals) is the primary domestic accreditor, and many leading cardiac centres also hold JCI accreditation. Hospitals performing interventional cardiology must additionally meet Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) guidelines for cath-lab standards.
What is typically included in an angioplasty package in India?
Packages usually cover pre-operative blood work, ECG, echocardiogram, the catheterisation procedure with drug-eluting stent(s), one to two nights in ICU, post-op medications, and a follow-up consultation before discharge. Airport pickup and a dedicated patient coordinator are commonly included at top hospitals.
What stenting technology is available in Indian hospitals?
Most NABH-accredited centres use latest-generation drug-eluting stents (DES) from Medtronic, Abbott, and Boston Scientific, along with intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) guidance. Radial-access angioplasty, which reduces recovery time, is widely practised.
What aftercare protocols follow angioplasty in India?
Patients are typically monitored in ICU for 12-24 hours, then moved to a ward for observation. Discharge usually occurs within 48 hours with a prescribed dual-antiplatelet regimen, and hospitals provide a telemedicine follow-up at 7 and 30 days post-procedure.
How do international patients typically pay for angioplasty in India?
Most hospitals accept international wire transfers, credit cards (Visa/Mastercard), and demand a 25-50% advance deposit. Some facilities work directly with international insurers such as Bupa and Allianz, though patients should confirm coverage and obtain pre-authorisation before travel.
What is the difference between drug-eluting stents and bare-metal stents?
Drug-eluting stents (DES) are coated with medication that slowly releases to prevent tissue regrowth, significantly reducing re-narrowing rates compared to bare-metal stents which have a 15-20% restenosis rate. Modern second-generation DES are now the standard of care, delivering lower rates of repeat procedures and heart attacks.
How long do stents last, and what is the risk of re-narrowing?
Stents are permanent implants designed to last a lifetime — the metal scaffold itself does not wear out. However, about 1 in 4 patients may develop in-stent restenosis typically within 6-12 months, with drug-eluting stents having significantly lower rates than bare-metal stents. Lifelong follow-up with periodic stress testing and statin therapy remain essential.
How long should I stay near the hospital after angioplasty before flying home?
Most hospitals recommend staying within 30 minutes of the facility for 3-5 days after the procedure so the team can monitor for early complications. Airlines typically allow flying 5-7 days after uncomplicated angioplasty, though your treating physician will clear you based on your individual case.
What medical records should I bring to my overseas cardiologist?
Bring your most recent angiogram or cardiac catheterization report on CD or DICOM format, a recent echocardiogram, your current medication list with dosages, relevant blood work (lipid panel, HbA1c, kidney function), and any stress test results. Most international cardiac centers can also accept records via a secure patient portal.
How do I coordinate cardiac follow-up care with my local cardiologist after returning home?
Before traveling, inform your home cardiologist about the planned procedure and ask if they will manage your post-procedure care. Request a detailed discharge summary from the overseas hospital including the stent type, size, placement, and any procedural notes. Most international cardiac centers provide English-language records specifically for this purpose.
