2022: Creation of a tool to restore the patency of the heart arteries in acute infarction
Stavropol doctors have created a new medical tool - coronary bouge. With its help, you can perform operations on the arteries of the heart during operations for acute myocardial infarction. The development will make it possible to more effectively preserve the life and health of patients and increase the availability of high-tech treatment, Governor of the Stavropol Territory Vladimir Vladimirov said in early November 2022.
According to him, the authors of the invention are Oleg Belokon, head of the department of X-ray surgical methods for diagnosing and treating the Stavropol Regional Hospital, and his colleague, Grigory Sazanov, a doctor for X-ray endovascular methods for diagnosing and treating, who in 2022 became the superfinalist of the leadership competition "Leaders of the Russia presidential platform Russia " - a country of opportunities "and the winner of the track".

As Grigory Sazanov explained, when a patient with acute coronary syndrome is admitted, the surgeon needs to eliminate the blockage of the vessel and implant a stent that performs the function of an artery prosthesis in this place. The standard technique for restoring patency of the coronary vessels is to conduct the balloon catheter to the place of closure of the artery and then inflate it. But at the same time, there is an aggressive effect on thrombomasses: elements of plaques and blood clots fly lower in blood flow, which significantly increases the risk of developing slow or no-flow phenomena, which increase patient mortality by almost four times.
Our bouge does not inflate at the site of artery thrombosis, it kind of pushes apart the elements of thrombomass, so their migration does not occur, "Sazanov said. |
Bouges to expand tubular organs have long been used in other medical specialties, such as urology or abdominal surgery, he added. But there was no such tool in endovascular surgery.[1]
