Open Heart Surgery
Open heart surgery is a medical procedure in which a surgeon makes an incision in the chest to operate on the heart directly. This surgery is typically performed to address serious heart conditions such as coronary artery disease, heart valve problems, or heart defects present from birth. The procedure often involves using a heart-lung machine to circulate blood and oxygen through the body while the heart is temporarily stopped, allowing the surgeon to perform the necessary repairs. Open heart surgery can be life-saving and significantly improve the quality of life for patients with severe heart conditions.
