Bag om Cardiac Surgery Essentials
Cardiac surgery, also known as cardiovascular surgery, is the surgery which is performed either on the heart or the great vessels. It is performed to treat various conditions such as congenital heart disease, valvular heart disease and ischemic heart disease. There are numerous types of cardiac surgeries like open-heart surgery, coronary artery bypass grafting, minimally invasive surgery and heart transplantation. Postoperative care is vital after a cardiac surgery had been performed. This is to ensure that complications and infections do not occur, and scarring is kept to a minimum. After surgery, the patient is closely monitored in an intensive care unit for heart rate, oxygen levels and blood pressure. Stroke, postperfusion syndrome and skumin syndrome are some complications that can occur in patients after surgery. This book elucidates new procedures of cardiac surgery in a comprehensive manner.
