Cost of cardiac stent surgery

summary

Many people ask: how much is the cost of cardiac stent surgery? Is cardiac stent surgery expensive? Can we afford the cost of cardiac stent surgery?

Cost of cardiac stent surgery

First, the biggest proportion of the total cost of cardiac stent surgery is the cardiac stent used in the operation. A common domestic cardiac stent also costs about 20000 yuan, while the imported cardiac stent is more expensive.

Second: it can be seen that the total cost of a cardiac stent operation is at least 40000 yuan or 50000 yuan. If more than two stents are needed in the operation or imported drug stents are used, the cost of cardiac stent operation will increase significantly. Therefore, from the perspective of the cost of cardiac stent operation, if three or more cardiac stents are needed in the operation The cost of cardiac stent surgery may exceed 100000 yuan, so it is suggested to abandon the cardiac stent surgery plan and choose the cardiac bypass surgery plan.

Third: coronary stent surgery is currently operated under X-ray images, which itself requires part of the cost. The cost of this part is about 5000 to 8000 yuan. In coronary heart disease stent surgery, the guide tube should be placed into the vascular opening first, then the guide wire should be sent to the distal part of the vessel, and then the stent should be sent to the lesion for expansion along the guide wire. Before the stent is expanded, it is fixed on the balloon catheter.

matters needing attention

Therefore, the total cost of cardiac stent surgery should be determined according to the type and number of stents. Generally, the total cost of cardiac stent surgery with one stent is about 35000-50000 yuan. The total operation cost of two stents is 60000-80000, so it is generally not recommended to implant three stents, because if three stents are to be implanted, coronary artery bypass grafting should be chosen in terms of therapeutic effect and economic cost.
