EECP therapy is a boon for long-term COVID patients

Image
  EECP is a non-invasive approach that has been found to enhance cerebral and heart perfusion. When EECP patients arrive at the clinic, they lie down on a treatment table and have three sets of pneumatic cuffs placed on their calves, thighs, and lower hips. The mechanism for the cuffs to consecutively inflate from the legs up to the hips during the heart's resting phase is a three-lead electrocardiogram. The cuffs deflate simultaneously with the heart's beginning of the contraction phase. The heart muscle and the rest of the body are both subjected to the regulated inflation and deflation. A patient may have up to 35 therapy sessions over the course of a week, each lasting an hour. New research demonstrates that extended COVID, a condition that affects endothelial function and vascular health, is a disease. EECP is a non-invasive, disease-modifying treatment that has been proved in controlled clinical trials to enhance endothelial function. Worldwide, an estimated 50% of CO

EECP Treatment: A Non-surgical Treatment for Angina and Heart diseases.

  Heart conditions like angina can be treated non-invasively, painlessly, and outside of the hospital with EECP (Enhanced External Counter Pulsation). It has been suggested as an alternative to conventional treatments like angioplasty and bypass surgery for coronary artery disease (CAD) because it is safe and non-invasive. Up to 35 hours of EECP treatment may be administered, one hour per day. The patient is requested to take a seat comfortably while receiving therapy, and then his or her legs, thighs, and buttocks are wrapped in thick cuffs. Between each heartbeat, these cuffs expand and deflate at predetermined regular intervals. The cuffs are inflated when the heart is at rest (when it receives its oxygen supply) and deflate when rest ends, ideally before the subsequent beating. The timing of the cuffs is controlled and monitored by an electrocardiogram. A sensor is fastened to the tip of the patient's finger, and it measures the amount of oxygen in the blood as well as the pr
