Answer 1

Here are the descriptions matched to the correct heart disease treatments:

• Angioplasty: A procedure to open narrowed or blocked blood vessels that supply blood to the heart, often involving the insertion of a balloon catheter to widen the artery.

• Catheter Ablation: A procedure used to destroy small areas of heart tissue that may be causing abnormal electrical signals, effectively treating certain types of arrhythmias.

• Cardioversion: A medical procedure that restores a normal heart rhythm in patients with certain types of abnormal heartbeats (arrhythmias) using electric shocks or medication.

• Bypass Surgery: A surgical procedure that creates a new pathway for blood to flow to the heart by diverting blood around blocked arteries, typically using a blood vessel from another part of the body.

You can now drag and drop the descriptions to the appropriate treatments.
