Frequently Asked Questions

Open heart surgery is a type of surgery where the chest is opened, and the heart is operated on.

Open heart surgery treats various heart conditions, such as coronary artery disease, heart valve disease, and congenital heart defects.

The length of open heart surgery varies depending on the type of procedure performed, and may take several hours. 

The different types of open heart surgery include coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), congenital heart defect repair and heart valve repair or replacement, to name a few. 

Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is a kind of open heart surgery involving the bypassing of blocked or narrowed coronary arteries to improve blood flow to the heart.

Open heart surgery is performed under general anaesthesia. The chest is opened, and the heart is stopped so the surgeon can perform the necessary repairs.

General anaesthesia is used during open-heart surgery.

The recovery time for open heart surgery depends on factors such as the type of procedure and the individual patient, but it typically takes several weeks to several months.

The duration of hospital stay after open heart surgery varies depending on the individual patient & type of procedure and ranges from several days to a week or more.
Potential complications of open heart surgery include bleeding, infection, stroke, heart attack, and arrhythmias.
No, you will be under general anaesthesia during open-heart surgery.

After open heart surgery, you can expect to be in the hospital for several days and experience some pain and discomfort. You will also need to take it easy and gradually increase your activity level.

The medications you will need to take after open heart surgery depend on the type of procedure and your individual needs, but they may include pain medication, blood thinners, and antibiotics.

You may need to make some dietary changes after open heart surgery, such as eating a heart-healthy diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol.

The time it takes to return to normal activities after open heart surgery varies depending on the type of procedure and your individual needs, but it may take several weeks to several months.

The time you need to take off work after open heart surgery depends on the type of procedure and your individual needs, but it may take several weeks to several months.

The risks of open heart surgery include bleeding, infection, stroke, heart attack, and arrhythmias.

You can prepare for open heart surgery by following your doctor's instructions, quitting smoking, and getting regular exercise.

The success rate of open heart surgery depends on the specific procedure and the patient's individual health condition. However, in general, open heart surgery is considered a highly successful procedure, with survival rates of 90% or higher in many cases.

Long-term effects of open heart surgery include improved heart function and quality of life, reduced risk of heart attacks and other cardiac events, and increased life expectancy. However, some patients may experience complications or require additional medical interventions in the years following surgery.

Physical therapy plays an important role in open heart surgery recovery, helping patients to rebuild strength, flexibility, and endurance after surgery. Physical therapy may include exercises to improve breathing, walking, and other physical activities, as well as strategies to manage pain and discomfort.

Diet can also be an important factor in open heart surgery recovery, with a focus on healthy eating habits that support heart health and overall well-being. Patients may be advised to follow a low-fat, low-sodium diet emphasising whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins.

Support groups can be a valuable resource for patients and their families as they navigate the challenges of open heart surgery recovery. These groups can provide practical advice, emotional support, and a sense of community with others who have undergone similar experiences.

The cost of open heart surgery can vary widely depending on the specific procedure, the extent of the condition, and the location of the hospital, to name a few.

There are several alternatives to open heart surgery, including minimally invasive heart surgery, angioplasty, and other interventional procedures. In certain cases, medications and lifestyle changes may effectively manage heart disease and reduce the need for surgery.

Yes, you will undergo several tests before open heart surgery to assess your heart function and overall health. These tests include blood tests, imaging tests like echocardiogram and angiogram, electrocardiogram (ECG), and pulmonary function tests, to name a few.

Yes, open heart surgery can be performed on older patients, but the decision to proceed with surgery will depend on the patient's overall health and individual circumstances. Older patients may be at a higher risk of complications from surgery, so a thorough evaluation by a medical team is necessary.

Yes, open heart surgery can be performed on children, including infants. Pediatric cardiac surgeons have specialised training and experience performing heart surgery on children.

Minimally invasive heart surgery is a type of heart surgery that uses smaller incisions and specialised surgical instruments to access the heart. This technique may result in less pain, scarring, and blood loss than traditional open heart surgery.

Robotic heart surgery is a minimally invasive heart surgery that uses a robotic system to assist the surgeon. The robotic system consists of a console that the surgeon uses to control small robotic arms, which hold surgical instruments. This technique allows for greater precision and control during surgery, resulting in less pain and faster recovery.

Open heart surgery is a type of surgery that involves opening the chest to access the heart, while angioplasty is a minimally invasive procedure that involves inserting a catheter into the arteries and using a small balloon to widen narrowed or blocked arteries.

Open heart surgery can involve valve replacement surgery, but it can also involve other procedures like bypass surgery or repairing damaged heart tissue. Valve replacement surgery specifically involves replacing a damaged heart valve with a  biological or mechanical valve.

Open heart surgery is a surgical procedure that repairs or replaces damaged parts of the heart, while a heart transplant involves replacing the entire heart with a healthy heart from a donor. Open heart surgery may be a treatment option before a heart transplant is considered.
