Frequently Asked Questions


What is Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery(CABG)and its advantages?

Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery (CABG) of the heart is performed to re-route the blood supply due to the blockage of blood vessels of the heart called Coronary arteries. These coronary arteries might get blocked during conditions like Atherosclerosis, Coronary artery disease, etc. The symptoms include chest pain, shortness of breath, etc. This procedure involves a healthy blood vessel taken from your arm or leg or chest and connecting it beyond the blocked arteries of the heart. This bypass heart surgery will not cure heart disease but it can save you from the symptoms of the blocked blood vessel and extend life expectancy.


Advantages of Coronary Artery Bypass surgery are the following: 

  1. It helps in reducing the symptoms of Coronary artery disease.
  2. Decreases the risk of recurrence of a heart attack.


What are the indications of Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery(CABG)?

  2. Blockage of arteries (Coronary artery disease)
  3. Less blood flow to the heart (Ischemia)
  4. Pain in the chest (Angina)
  5. Shortness of breath


What can be the preparation for Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery(CABG)?

The following are the steps to prepare before the surgery:

  4. You may be having some imaging tests to see the condition of the blockages.
  5. You may be advised to stop eating or drinking before 6 hours of the procedure.

How Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery(CABG) is done?

Coronary Artery Bypass surgery is done through the following steps:

  1. General anesthesia will be given to avoid pain during the surgery.
  2. An incision in the middle of the chest, a cardiopulmonary bypass machine is connected to you to circulate oxygenated blood throughout the body while the surgical procedure is going on.
  3. A cooling technique is used by your surgeon to lower your body temperature. To reduce the amount of oxygen needed by your heart. This helps in suspending the body's processes and making the heart surgery possible. It also helps in reducing the risk of heart or brain damage due to lack of oxygen.
  4. A healthy blood vessel from the chest wall or arm or leg is removed by the surgeon and placed near the blocked or damaged artery. This removed blood vessel is called graft and is attached over the blocked or damaged blood vessel while the other end is connected below it.
  5. After completion of this process, the surgeon will remove the heart-lung machine and the function of the bypass is monitored. Once the bypass starts functioning, the incision will be closed with the sutures and bandage and shifted to ICU.
