- [Narrator] A coronary angioplasty procedure is also known 00:15
as percutaneous coronary intervention. 00:18
The procedure is done on blood vessels 00:22
called coronary arteries. 00:24
They supply your heart muscle with oxygen. 00:27
The goal is to restore blood flow if a substance 00:32
called plaque has significantly narrowed these vessels. 00:35
To begin the procedure, 00:41
the doctor will numb the skin in your groin. 00:42
A needle will be placed through your skin 00:47
and into the femoral artery. 00:49
Next, a flexible guide wire will be passed 00:52
through the needle into your artery. 00:54
Then, the needle will be withdrawn. 00:57
It will be exchanged 01:00
for a small, flexible tube called a sheath. 01:01
This permits access into your artery. 01:05
You may feel pressure when the doctor inserts the sheath, 01:08
but you will not feel it moving inside your artery. 01:11
Next, the guide wire will be advanced up to your heart. 01:16
A flexible tube called a catheter will be advanced 01:20
over the wire to your coronary arteries. 01:24
The progress of the procedure will be checked 01:28
with an X-ray device called a fluoroscope. 01:30
At this point, your doctor will remove the guide wire. 01:33
Then, the doctor will move the tip of the catheter 01:37
just inside the coronary artery to be examined. 01:40
A special dye will be injected into the artery. 01:44
This allows your doctor to view it better 01:47
with a fluoroscope. 01:48
The dye will make any blockages in the artery stand out. 01:50
If a significant blockage is found, 01:55
your doctor will insert a guide wire into the artery. 01:57
A balloon on the tip of the catheter will be moved 02:02
along the wire to the blockage. 02:04
When the balloon inflates, 02:07
it will expand the artery and improve the blood flow. 02:09
You may feel some chest discomfort while this is happening. 02:13
After this, your doctor will deflate and remove the balloon. 02:17
A wire mesh tube called a stent may be placed 02:25
in the treated area. 02:28
The stent helps keep the coronary artery open. 02:30
Your doctor will choose the proper size stent, 02:33
which is compressed over a balloon. 02:36
The stent will be moved into the artery 02:40
over the same guide wire. 02:42
When the balloon is inflated, 02:43
the stent will expand and lock into place. 02:45
After the balloon catheter is taken out, 02:50
the stent will stay in place to hold the artery open. 02:52
At the end of the procedure, 02:57
the guide wire will be removed. 02:58
To find out more about coronary artery angioplasty, 03:02
talk to your healthcare provider. 03:05

Key Grammar Structures

  • This animation is brought to you by Skillshare

    ➔ Passive Voice (Present Simple)

    ➔ The structure 'is + past participle' focuses on the recipient of the action (the animation) rather than the performer.

  • They supply your heart muscle with oxygen.

    ➔ Transitive Verb with Prepositional Object (Supply with)

    ➔ The verb 'supply' is used with the preposition 'with' to connect the object (heart muscle) to the material provided (oxygen).

  • You may feel pressure when the doctor inserts the sheath.

    ➔ Modal Verb of Possibility (May)

    ➔ The modal verb 'may' indicates that feeling pressure is a possible, but not guaranteed, occurrence during the procedure.

  • The progress of the procedure will be checked with an X-ray device.

    ➔ Future Passive Voice

    ➔ The structure 'will be + past participle' expresses that an action will occur in the future with the focus on the procedure.

  • This allows your doctor to view it better.

    ➔ Infinitive Clause as Object Complement

    ➔ The pattern 'allow + object + to-infinitive' describes enabling someone to perform an action.

  • When the balloon inflates, it will expand the artery.

    ➔ First Conditional (Time Clause with 'When')

    ➔ The use of 'When' + present tense indicates a specific future moment that triggers the next action.

  • The stent helps keep the coronary artery open.

    ➔ Bare Infinitive after 'Help'

    ➔ After the verb 'help', it is common to use the base form of the verb ('keep') without 'to'.

  • If you wanna learn how to use the same software programs we use at Nucleus...

    ➔ Colloquialism ('Wanna') & Relative Clause

    ➔ 'Wanna' is a contraction of 'want to'. The omitted 'that' after 'programs' functions as a relative clause.
