When should someone have surgery after there cardiac stent operation?


When should someone have surgery after there cardiac stent operation?

If they're on a blood thinning agent such as clopidogrel then it's best to discuss this with cardiologist as they may want someone to be on this for 3-6mth to give a stent the best chance of working.
Of course if someone needs an emergency or urgent op then you have to go ahead

Your cardiologist with a thorough analysis of your lab and test results can answer this much better than anyone on the internet.
