EECP
Heart Treatment Without Surgery?
WHAT IS EECP TREATMENT?
Enhanced External Counter Pulsation (EECP) is a non-invasive cardiac therapy designed to improve blood circulation to the heart.
During treatment:
- Special cuffs are placed on the legs
- These inflate and deflate in sync with your heartbeat
- This helps improve oxygen-rich blood flow to the heart
EECP is used worldwide as a supportive therapy for coronary artery disease.
WHO CAN BENEFIT FROM EECP?
✅ EECP May Help Patients With:
- Stable angina (chest pain)
- Breathlessness during physical activity
- Moderate coronary artery disease
- Persistent symptoms after angioplasty
- Patients not suitable for surgery
⚠️ EECP MAY NOT BE SUITABLE FOR:
- Severe or critical blockages
- Emergency heart conditions
- Unstable cardiac patients
- Certain vascular or rhythm disorders

We recommend EECP only if it is appropriate for your condition
Can EECP remove blockages?
EECP does not remove blockages but may improve blood flow and reduce symptoms.
Can EECP replace angioplasty?
Not always. Some patients require angioplasty or surgery depending on severity.
