English term or phrase: Oculo-Stenotic Reflex
它是指医生目视(Oculo)检查病人的血管造影图后,发现有狭窄现象(Stenosis)就实施血管成形术。似乎有些滥用的倾向。

但一时找不到既能反应其含义又象个医学术语的词/词组。

refers to the use of angiograms leading to 'automatic'? and perhaps unnecessary? surgery

'Angioplasty seems to be too much of a reflex reaction'

'Oculo-Stenotic Reflex' term coined by Topol - not a physiological reflex but a type of decisionmaking behaviour by the medical staff.

Explanation:
It wasn't long ago that many invasive cardiologists made decisions about inserting stents using the so-called "oculo-stenotic reflex", meaning that every coronary blockage they saw got a stent.

The term “oculostenotic” reflex was coined to denote what appears to be an irresistible temptation among some invasive cardiologists to perform angioplasty on any significant residual stenosis after thrombolysis.
