Best Cardiac Surgeon in Jaipur
Open Heart Surgery Procedure
Open heart procedure may take from three to six hours and usually follows the basic steps:
- General anaesthesia is given to the patient to ensure they feel no pain throughout the whole surgery.
- An incision of 8- to 10-inch is made in the chest.
- The incision is made through all or part of the breastbone to get direct access to the heart.
- A heart-lung bypass machine is connected to the patient once the heart is accessible. This machine helps to move blood away from the heart which is needed for open heart surgery. However, not in all cases, they use this machine. Now almost 98% of the bypass surgeries are done off pump
- To make a new passage around the blocked artery, the surgeon uses a healthy vein or artery in that place.
- Once done, the surgeon closes the breastbone by leaving the stitch-wire inside the body.
- Finally, they stitch the original cut.
