Brief Answer:
Vomiting has nothing to do with Angioplasty
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Your father needs medical attention from Internal Medicine specialist. As per your description the vomiting episodes may not be related to Angioplasty procedure that he underwent.
It is important to check his other parameters like liver function, kidney etc. An infection needs to be ruled out. Hence I advise you to meet an Internal Medicine doctor as soon as possible. If he continues to vomit he would dehydrate and would complicate the matter further.
Hope this helps
