title: [Clinical study about the management of hemodynamic instability during carotid stenting angioplasty].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To evaluate the validity of different treatment for minimizing the complications caused by hemodynamic changes during stenting angioplasty of carotid stenoses.
  
  
  METHODS
  There was no special measure for 80 of 205 cases during angioplasty. General blood pressure was controlled strictly to normal lower limit for avoiding intracranial reperfusion bleeding and angioplasty was done after elevated heart rate to 80 per minute in the remaining 125 cases.
  
  
  RESULTS
  There were 8.8% complications in 80 cases and no obviously complication occurred in 125 cases controlling hemodynamic changes. Follow-up period from 1 months to 5 years, there was no marked restenosis.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Regulating hemodynamic changes should be emphasized for reducing complications and improving the effect of carotid artery stenting.
