Open heart surgery, known as "açık kalp cerrahisi" in Turkish, is a complex and transformative procedure that involves accessing the heart through a large incision in the chest to repair or replace damaged heart valves, correct congenital heart defects, or address other critical heart conditions. Rhealth Road To Health specializes in open heart surgery, combining advanced surgical techniques, specialized expertise, and patient-centered care to restore heart health and enhance overall well-being.
Understanding Open Heart Surgery:
Open heart surgery is a term used to describe surgical procedures that involve direct access to the heart, typically requiring the use of a heart-lung machine to temporarily take over the heart's pumping function. It is commonly used to treat conditions such as coronary artery disease, heart valve issues, and congenital heart defects.
The Open Heart Surgery Process:
The open heart surgery process involves several key stages:
-
Preparation: A thorough evaluation is conducted to assess the heart condition and determine the need for open heart surgery. Pre-operative tests and consultations are performed to ensure optimal readiness for the procedure.
-
Surgery: During the procedure, the chest is opened, and the heart is exposed. The heart may be temporarily stopped, and the heart-lung machine takes over its functions. Surgical interventions are performed, such as coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) or heart valve repair/replacement.
-
Recovery and Healing: After the procedure, patients are closely monitored in the intensive care unit (ICU) before being transferred to a regular hospital room. A period of recovery and rehabilitation follows, guided by healthcare professionals.
