Bypass Surgery
Cardilogy
Blood bypasses the blockage by going through the new graft to reach the heart muscle. This is called coronary artery bypass surgery.Coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) is a procedure used to treat coronary artery disease. Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the narrowing of the coronary arteries – the blood vessels that supply oxygen and nutrients to the heart muscle.
CAD is caused by a build-up of fatty material within the walls of the arteries. This build-up narrows the inside of the arteries, limiting the supply of oxygen-rich blood to the heart muscle.
Symptoms of coronary artery disease may include:
- Chest pain & Fatigue (severe tiredness)
- Palpitations
- Abnormal heart rhythms
- Shortness of breath & Swelling in the hands and feet
Risks Of Bypass Surgery
- Bleeding during or after the surgery
- Blood clots that can cause heart attack, stroke, or lung problems
- Infection at the incision site
- Pneumonia
- Breathing problems
- Along with a review of your health history, your doctor will do a complete physical exam to make sure you are in otherwise good health before having the procedure. You may need blood tests or other diagnostic tests.
