Coronary artery blockage of 30% in coronary heart disease can be managed effectively. If coronary angiography shows a 30% blockage, the condition is not considered severe. In such cases, stent placement is not recommended. Conservative treatment with medications is preferred, primarily aimed at dilating the coronary arteries to improve blood supply to the heart. Patients with more than 70% coronary artery stenosis accompanied by clinical symptoms require stent implantation or bypass surgery. After surgery, regular monitoring of lipid levels, blood glucose, liver and kidney function, electrocardiogram, and echocardiography should be performed.
