Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is an emergency procedure that is performed on people who are suffering from cardiac arrest. The purpose of CPR is to provide a flow of oxygenated blood to the brain until other procedures can be performed to restore the person's heartbeat and breathing.
If these procedures do not eliminate the symptoms of chest pain (also called angina), other treatment options are available. TMR, or transmyocardial laser revascularization, is a new treatment aimed at improving blood flow to areas of the heart that were not treated by angioplasty or surgery.A special carbon dioxide (CO 2) laser is used to create small channels in the heart muscle, improving blood flow to the heart muscle.MR is a surgical procedure. It is performed through a small incision in either the left side or the middle of the chest. Frequently, it is performed along with coronary bypass surgery, occasionally alone. Once the incision is made, the surgeon exposes the heart muscle.
