EECP is FDA-cleared for chronic angina and heart failure, and a growing body of evidence supports its use in coronary artery disease, microvascular dysfunction, and other circulatory conditions where blood flow is the underlying issue.
EECP works by improving blood flow throughout the cardiovascular system. That makes it useful across several distinct diagnoses, each with its own clinical story.
Class III & IV angina that persists despite optimal medication and prior intervention. Our most studied indication,75%+ of patients report meaningful symptom relief.
Learn about angina treatment →FDA-cleared for stable NYHA Class II/III heart failure. EECP improves exercise tolerance, ejection fraction, and quality of life when medications have plateaued.
Learn about heart failure treatment →For patients with diffuse or distal disease where stents and bypass aren’t ideal. EECP encourages collateral circulation, your body’s natural workaround.
Learn about CAD treatment →Chest pain with clean cath results, often microvascular dysfunction or INOCA. EECP addresses the small-vessel physiology that imaging alone can miss.
Learn about non-obstructive CAD →EECP is not a fit for every patient, but for the right candidate, it can be life-changing. These are the most common reasons patients are referred to us.
Take the 60-second quiz →Climbing stairs, walking the dog, light yard work, activities you used to do without thinking now leave you stopping to catch your breath.
Cath, stress tests, imaging, and you’re on maximum tolerated medical therapy. Symptoms persist anyway.
Diffuse disease, prior bypass that’s failing, anatomy that won’t accept stents, or you’ve simply been told you’re not a surgical candidate.
Stable HFrEF or HFpEF where your ejection fraction and exercise tolerance haven’t responded to optimal guideline-directed medical therapy.
Microvascular dysfunction or INOCA, you have real chest pain but conventional imaging shows clean arteries.
