Does catheter mount implantation improve patients' quality of life and survival?

As an important interventional treatment, catheter mount is widely used in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases, especially in the management of coronary artery disease and peripheral vascular disease. It improves the patency of blood vessels, restores blood flow, and relieves the symptoms of patients due to blood flow obstruction, thereby greatly improving the quality of life and survival of patients.
For many patients with coronary atherosclerosis or other types of vascular disease, the implantation of stents can significantly relieve symptoms such as chest pain and shortness of breath, reduce the frequency of angina attacks, and reduce the risk of myocardial infarction. In the short term after stent implantation, patients usually feel the obvious changes brought about by the restoration of blood flow, and their physical strength and daily activity ability have improved. This improvement not only improves the physical health of patients, but also gives them more confidence and motivation in life psychologically.
In the long run, the effect of stent implantation varies depending on individual differences of patients. For some patients, especially those in high-risk groups or those with other complications, the implantation of stents can effectively prolong survival. Stents can prevent blood vessels from narrowing again, thereby reducing the incidence of cardiovascular events. However, some patients may still face stent-related complications, such as stent thrombosis or restenosis, which will affect the treatment effect. Therefore, long-term management and follow-up after stent implantation are the key to ensure that patients' survival and quality of life are further improved.
Although stent implantation can significantly improve the patency of blood vessels, its effect is not once and for all. After receiving stent implantation, patients still need to strictly control their diet, maintain proper exercise, and have regular checkups to avoid interference from other risk factors, such as smoking, high blood sugar or high blood lipids. Through these comprehensive managements, patients can not only enjoy a longer survival period after treatment, but also maintain a high level of quality of life.
For most patients, catheter stent implantation can indeed effectively improve their quality of life and survival. But this does not mean that the treatment effect of stent implantation can be completely relied on. Patients still need to maintain a healthy lifestyle after surgery and keep close follow-up with doctors to ensure the continued effectiveness of treatment.
