How does ACT & EECP helps?
Arterial Clearance Therapy (ACT) improves the arterial elasticity and improves the blood flow in the arteries by softening the calcified plaques. It also releases high no of antioxidants, which corrects the cellular damage in the arteries. Enhanced External counter Pulsation (EECP) opens up the complete collateral circulation of the heart. The micro vessels mostly capillaries lies dormant, EECP activates them. Thus the hearts do not have to depend on blood supply only on the three main arteries. The main arteries have a much higher chance of developing blockages and becoming rigid where as the small capillaries do not have similar problem of high rigidity and deposition of blockages. Thus EECP along with Cardiac Rehabilitation Program can give very long term effects and reduces the risk of heart attack to just 5%. By restoring the blood supply EECP improves the pumping of the heart. Thus even with poor heart pumping 15-25% where surgeries are at high risk EECP is the only form of treat
