If you or someone you know is among the more than 7 million people in this country who suffer the crippling chest pain of angina pectoris, you should know about EECP®
 
A therapy for angina called EECP may make it possible for you to take part in the activities you enjoy once again without suffering from attacks of angina. This treatment, which does not involve surgery or hospitalization, has helped many people with coronary artery disease.

This treatment is called Enhanced External Counterpulsation, and will be referred to as EECP during the presentation. EECP can eliminate or reduce angina. People who have received this treatment often report having a “new lease on life.”

Ask Your Doctor About EECP®

The term Enhanced External Counterpulsation (EECP®) describes what happens during treatment. "Enhanced" refers to the state-of-the-art technology that has developed during decades of research and is used for EECP® treatment today. EECP® treatment is "external" because it happens outside the body and does not require surgery or other invasive procedures. Counterpulsation occurs between heart beats.
When patients have angina, their bodies are telling them that their heart is not receiving enough oxygen. A treatment, in harmony with patients heart, can improve circulation to the heart muscle. After EECP® treatment, patients may find that: they can walk farther; carry heavier packages and be more active without having angina; they have fewer attacks of angina; their episodes of angina are less intense; they need less anti-anginal medication; they can return to work, go out to dinner, garden, travel, or enjoy golf, tennis, or bowling once again; they no longer restrict their social lives, volunteer activities, or exercise because they are worried that they will cause angina.

Developed by Vasomedical, Inc., EECP® has been tested in multicenter, controlled, clinical studies, with positive medical results and demonstrated quality of life improvement.Enhancing your life's rhythm is the heart of EECP®. And with Medicare's coverage, there's one more good reason to ask your doctor if EECP® is the treatment for you.

EECP® offers hope and help

Who is EECP® therapy intended to help?
EECP® is intended to help people who suffer from angina. It is the most common symptom of coronary artery disease.
The majority of patients with angina complain of chest discomfort provoked by mental, physical, or emotional stress. Discomfort can vary widely among patients who report shortness of breath, fatigue, indigestion, faintness, pain in the jaw, and other symptoms.
Previously, the primary treatment options for people suffering from angina were medication and/or invasive procedures such as bypass surgery or angioplasty.
Invasive procedures sometimes fail, pose risks and are very expensive. EECP® therapy provides an alternative for those people who cannot be treated effectively with medication or are unsuitable or are unwilling to undergo invasive procedures.
For many patients, EECP® treatment can provide relief without pain or time for recovery. EECP® treatment can be administered in outpatient sessions. The procedure has little or no risks and is relatively comfortable.
To determine if you are an appropriate candidate for EECP® treatment, you should be evaluated by your cardiologist.

Candidates for EEPC® treatment include:

1. Any patients with chronic stable angina
2. Patients for whom nitrates are not providing adequate relief from angina
3. Patients who do not qualify as candidates for invasive procedures
4. Patients who have exhausted invasive treatments without lasting relief of symptoms
5. Patients who are unwilling to undergo surgery or angioplasty.
6. Congestive heart failure

You may NOT be a candidate for EECP® treatment if you have any of the following conditions:

1. Certain heart rhythm abnormalities
2. Limiting peripheral vascular disease
3. Severe high blood pressure
4. Bleeding diathesis
5. Pregnancy or failure to employ a reliable method of birth control.

Typical course of treatment
A typical course of treatment requires patients to attend one-hour treatment sessions once a day, five days a week, for seven weeks. Many patients have continued working during the course of treatment by scheduling early morning or late afternoon appointments. Some patients may require more than 35 hours of treatment to achieve optimal benefit.
Because each person's condition is unique, there is no predictable point during treatment when you will feel an improvement. Experience has shown, however, that many patients tend to report some improvement in their conditions after as few as 10 or 12 treatment sessions, although it may take longer.
