What Does Chemotherapy Do?

Chemotherapy is used to cure and control cancer. Once the cells are destroyed by chemotherapy then cancer cells will never grow back. It stops cancer cells from spreading and growing in other parts of your body. It also shrinks tumors which causes pain.

How is Chemotherapy Used?


Chemotherapy is used as a cancer treatment but may be combined with surgery, radiation therapy,Oral chemo medications and biological therapy as per severity. In neo-adjuvant chemotherapy, large tumor is shrinked before surgery or radiation therapy. In adjuvant chemotherapy, cancer cells that may remain live after surgery or radiation therapy are destructed. Radiation therapy and biological therapy is the best combination to make it work better. Recurrent cancer or cancer cells (metastatic) which appear again or may spread in the body are destructed with chemotherapy. Induction chemotherapy is used for curative intent.Consolidation chemotherapy is for improving overall survival and to make body cancer free. If detected with side effects, your doctor or nurse will immediately make changes in medications.

This wall of membranous tissue and inferior muscles is known as the ventricular septum and the hole is more commonly seen in the membranous portion of the septum (chamber wall). What are the signs and symptoms of a Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD)? Ventricular septal defect (VSD)  is mostly a congenital (birth) defect that is seen in infants around a few weeks after birth. Some of the signs and symptoms seen in a developing VSD include pansystolic murmur in the lower left sterna border, troubled blood flow, irregular heartbeat as well as pulmonary hypertension as a result of increase in the blood flow.

Cardiac Ablation for Heart Rhythm Problems

Image
Cardiac ablation procedures Cardiac ablation is a procedure that is used to scar small areas in your heart that may be involved in your  heart rhythm problems . This can prevent the abnormal electrical signals or rhythms from moving through the heart. During the procedure, small wires called electrodes are placed inside your heart to measure your heart's electrical activity. When the source of the problem is found, the tissue causing the problem is destroyed. Description There are two methods for performing cardiac ablation: Radiofrequency ablation uses heat energy to eliminate the problem area. Cryoablation uses very cold temperatures. The type of procedure you have will depend on what kind of abnormal heart rhythm you have. Cardiac ablation procedures  are done in a hospital laboratory by trained staff. This includes cardiologists (heart doctors), technicians, and nurses. The setting is safe and controlled so your risk is as low as possible
