Stent for heart attack
My father 57 years had a heart attack 4 year back and after a month of he had angioplasty for 3 stent and since then he is on medication. Aspirin, clopidrogel and medicine for high blood pressure.
No history of smoking or drinking.
We take ecg, echo test every year. And treadmill test. How to confirm that re blocking is not recurring. And is there any confirm test to check re blocking.

The ECG ECHO TMT that you do every year is good enough. No need to do any additional tests

Hi, If he has no symptoms, ecg, echo and treadmill test is normal then nothing to worry and no need forfurther tests. But definite test to confirm is coronary angiogram.
