(Health-NewsWire.Net, July 17, 2015 ) PTCA is a minimally invasive procedure to open up blocked coronary arteries to permit unhindered blood flow to the heart muscle. In this procedure, catheters are positioned within the arteries to compress the plaques within a clogged coronary artery. A PTCA balloon catheter is a type of soft catheter equipped with a tiny inflatable balloon at its tip, which is inserted during a catheterization procedure into an artery that has been constricted by the addition of fatty deposits. The balloon is then bloated to clear the blockage and widen the artery. PTCA balloon catheters were the first devices used in the field of interventional cardiology. These catheters are also employed in the positioning of stents during angioplasty. PTCA balloon catheters are used in the PTCA procedures to compress the plaques within a blocked coronary artery.
