After completing the 35-session EECP treatment program, two of the questions our patients ask most often are "when will I notice results" and "what should I pay attention to in my daily life." In this article, we answer common questions about the post-treatment process.
When Do Results Start to Appear?
Some patients begin to notice a reduction in chest pain and an increase in energy levels around the midpoint of treatment. Because the development of collateral circulation is a physiological process that takes time, the most noticeable and lasting improvements are usually assessed after treatment is completed. Results can vary from person to person; some patients see effects more quickly, while for others they emerge more gradually.
The Post-Treatment Follow-Up Process
Once treatment is complete, a follow-up consultation is scheduled with Prof. Dr. Osman Beton. During this consultation, the change in your symptoms, your exercise capacity, and your overall quality of life are assessed together. Additional sessions or periodic "booster" sessions may be recommended if considered necessary.
What Should You Pay Attention to in Daily Life?
Are Additional Sessions Needed?
Some patients may receive "booster" sessions at certain intervals to maintain the benefits they have achieved. Whether this is needed is assessed by your doctor during your follow-up consultation.
