  The expected lifespan of a patient after multiple stent implantation rests with the patient and how he/she manages his/her disease.  Stents do not elevate the survival rates of heart disease victims but they lend a major early and maintained decrease in the requirement of another stent implantation or CABG in the future.  Hence, even if the stent prolonged the life of the patient to some extent, more important is how you manage your condition after you get a stent implanted.  If you manage your risk factors well and your cardiologist is an expert, you may live a prolonged and productive life even if you have received stent implantations in your major arteries.  To live a good life, you should continue to have a positive attitude towards life.  As per a medical opinion, your stents can prolong your lifespan to an extent, if you take care of your other risk factors as per your cardiologist's advice.  However, the most vital aspects which you should consider are diet and activity.

Cardiovascular disease are diseases that are related to the heart.  It involves the narrowing of the arteries which carry blood to the heart over a period of time. The narrowing of the arteries happen with a building up of a substance called plaque inside the arteries resulting in the arteries getting narrower.  When the arteries become narrow, it becomes difficult for the blood to reach the heart resulting in the formation of blood clot which untimately leads to a heart attack or a stroke. Cardiovascular disease is one of the leading causes for deaths around the world. Sedentary lifestyle coupled with smoking, no sleep, unhealthy diet are the causes of cardiovascular diseases in human beings. Every year millions of people around the world die because of Heart Attack .
