What is Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG)?
Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) is a well-established heart surgery performed to treat blocked or narrowed coronary arteries that reduce blood flow to the heart muscle. These blockages commonly cause chest pain (angina), shortness of breath, and increase the risk of heart attack.
- Blocked coronary arteries restrict oxygen-rich blood supply to the heart, leading to symptoms such as chest pain, fatigue, and breathlessness.
- CABG improves blood flow by creating new pathways around the blocked arteries.
- The procedure uses healthy blood vessels taken from the chest, leg, or arm to bypass the blocked sections.
- Post-surgery recovery includes careful monitoring, medications, lifestyle changes, and cardiac rehabilitation.
