Understanding Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG)

• Definition: A surgical procedure that creates new pathways for blood to flow around blocked or narrowed coronary arteries.
• Procedure: Involves using a healthy blood vessel from another part of your body to bypass the blocked artery and improve blood flow to the heart muscle.
• Benefits: Reduces symptoms such as chest pain and shortness of breath, improves heart function, and lowers the risk of heart attacks.
  
  

Comprehensive Diagnostic Approach

• Initial Evaluation: Detailed assessment by our cardiologists and surgeons to determine the need for CABG and the best surgical approach.
• Imaging Tests: Utilization of coronary angiography, CT scans, and other imaging techniques to map out the blocked arteries and plan the surgery.
• Pre-Procedure Assessment: Comprehensive evaluation to ensure you are in optimal condition for surgery and to discuss potential risks and benefits.
  
  

Advanced Surgical Techniques

• Traditional CABG: Open-heart surgery involving a median sternotomy (cutting through the breastbone) to access the heart and perform the bypass.
• Minimally Invasive CABG: A less invasive approach with smaller incisions, offering a quicker recovery time and reduced risk of complications.
• Off-Pump CABG: Performing the bypass surgery while the heart is still beating, avoiding the use of a heart-lung machine.
  
  

Ongoing Care and Management

• Post-Surgical Care: Intensive monitoring and support to ensure a smooth recovery, manage pain, and address any immediate concerns.
• Rehabilitation: Cardiac rehabilitation programs to aid in recovery, improve heart health, and enhance physical fitness.
• Lifestyle Counseling: Guidance on diet, exercise, and lifestyle changes to support long-term heart health and prevent future cardiovascular issues.
