What sequelae does heart bypass surgery have

summary

My father had a heart bypass operation at the beginning of the year. He has been doing well after the operation and recovered well. However, he found that he had difficulty breathing from time to time these days, so he went to the hospital for reexamination. The doctor said it might be a sequela of the operation. Today, let me talk about the sequelae of heart bypass surgery.

What sequelae does heart bypass surgery have

First: generally there will be no sequelae, as long as the operation is successful. The main need for drug treatment, because coronary stent or coronary artery bypass grafting can only ease the blockage of a blood vessel, avoid the risk of myocardial infarction, reduce the risk. Other if there is a slight blockage will cause chest tightness, or drugs with treatment.

Second: any operation may face life-threatening, but also may bring serious sequelae. Of course, the biggest risk of bypass surgery is that it can not save the lives of patients. It may also cause perioperative myocardial infarction, malignant arrhythmia, heart failure, multiple organ failure and other complications.

Third: these complications do not necessarily occur. In fact, the overall success rate of bypass surgery is relatively high. In my case, it can reach 99%. In contrast, the risk of coronary heart disease without effective treatment is much higher. Before the implementation of treatment, we can not predict the consequences, we can only choose the treatment with the least risk.

matters needing attention

Heart bypass surgery, and did not fundamentally treat coronary heart disease, resulting in relief of symptoms of coronary artery occlusion, the root cause of coronary artery occlusion has not been resolved, so patients who have done heart bypass surgery, must pay attention to in daily life.
