Enhanced External Counter Pulsation (EECP).
Enhanced External Counter Pulsation (EECP) is performed as a non-invasive treatment. Treatment is administered through three pairs of external inflatable cuffs that are applied around the lower legs, upper legs and buttocks. It has found benefits not only for cardiac patients but also diabetics, stroke patients and other neurological deficits, athletes and anyone in need of better circulation. This treatment, though relatively new in Malaysia, has been used in the United States, Europe, China and India for more than two decades and is FDA approved.
The benefits of EECP therapy include:
- Improved blood flow to the heart muscle.
- Enhanced coronary artery dilation.
- Reduction in symptoms of angina such as chest pain or discomfort.
- Increased exercise tolerance.
- Improvement in quality of life for patients with chronic stable angina or heart failure.
