Coronary Bypass is done under General Anesthesia, but coronary angioplasty can be done under intravenous sedation
No, it's very painful.
Hello, if they are intervening on your arteries through a puncture in your leg or arm, then you are not under general anesthesia. If they are opening your chest, you will definitely be under general anesthesia. I wish you a speedy recovery!
