FAQs
1. What does a minimally invasive heart bypass surgery mean?
A minimally invasive bypass surgery refers to the process in which the heart is bypassed and a new route is created for the blood and oxygen to reach the heart without stopping the heart.
2. Is there a difference between bypass surgery and open-heart surgery?
Heart bypass surgery is a type of open-heart surgery, in which the surgeon cuts open the chest to reach the heart, and then performs the surgery either on-pump or off-pump.
3. What are the most common complications after open-heart surgery?
The most common complications associated with open-heart surgery are chest wound infections, heart attack, stroke, arrhythmia, lung, or kidney failure.
4. What is the advantage of robot-assisted cardiac surgery?
The biggest advantage of robot-assisted surgery for cardiothoracic procedures is that smaller incisions are made in the process, so the healing is much faster than other surgeries.
