Typical records
ECG, echocardiography, angiography reports/images where available, prior discharge summaries and a current medication list can be important for review.
Safety first
Patients with unstable chest pain, breathlessness at rest or other potentially urgent symptoms should seek immediate local medical care rather than waiting for international travel arrangements.
Planning after treatment
Before travelling, also review the broader international treatment process and how follow-up after returning home can be organised.
Return travel timing, anticoagulation, wound care, rehabilitation and follow-up should be clarified before discharge.
