About Nocobye:

We are about patient education regarding relatively comparable choices and treatment options between stent procedures and heart surgery. Recent advancements in stent technology and stenting techniques now provide a viable nonsurgical method of treating complex coronary artery disease that traditionally may have required Coronary artery bypass graft/open heart surgery (CABG/ OHS). We match patients who advised Coronary Bypass Surgery with nearby Interventional Cardiologists who are Physicians Par excellence? (PPEx?) for complex coronary stenting and in most cases can achieve results comparable to surgery using nonsurgical techniques. Reasons for a recommendation of CABG/OHS instead of Coronary stenting/PCI are complex including: * Conflicting scientific data confusing even for the average health care provider. * Widely varying cardiologist expertise and comfort level to stent multiple complex coronary blockages especially if necessary with the safe use of a miniature cardiac assist device. * A tendency for medical guidelines at times to lag behind scientific progress by years. * Generally a strong push by most hospitals for on-staff cardiologists to adhere to the years' old guidelines favoring CABG/OHS. * A prevailing hospital policy of enforcing the guideline recommended ? Heart Team? approach that in its current form is biased towards CABG over Stents. In the United States and around the world there now exists a fleet of interventional cardiologists who are Physicians Par Excellence? (PPEx?) for treating multiple complex coronary blockages without surgery.
