Heart Bypass Surgery (CABG)
Visit cardiology.healthanimations.com for FREE videos, illustrations and uncomplaining handouts for healthcare providers. This 3D medical animation of the heart shows a coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) procedure used to combat coronary artery disease. Beginning with a midline sternal incision, the heart is connected to a perfusion machine which will take over the duties of the heart while the surgery takes place. Two different grafts are used to bypass the blocked coronary arteries the internal thoracic artery from inside the chest wall, and the saphenous vein from the leg. After the procedure, the heart is shocked to restart its beating. A drainage tube is left at the incision site to drain away excess fluid. The animation continues to show two other types of approaches to a coronary artery bypass graft, off-pump bypass surgery and minimally invasive bypass surgery. This is similar to the procedure performed on former president Bill Clinton and California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Coronary Arterial Bypass and Graft Surgery
@Kasz2001 Except he doesn’t. Surgeons do.
@Wolfz115 thats wut the heart lung machine does
those drain tubes suck, i had a total of 4 wen i got appendicitis
wait…if they stop your heart…how do you live furing Surgury!!!
isnt the catheter that thing where they stick a small tube in your dick hole?
Its terrifying
And…you will be given enough antibiotics to sterilize dead goat.
@GoldKamil Relax..God determines all if we have to go..
theres tuff called edta chelation therapy and apparently unclocks atrteries thats causes all the alow breath,walk not far,angina,hih blood difficulty ect.ot actaully calcium tat buildns up in you arteries like paque..just goodgle clean out ateries…its worth a shot,,apparently its been known in this area and is safe to take.
@GoldKamil i hope yit went ok..i noticed your comment was a year ago..
My dream job would be a heart surgeon or a neurosurgeon.
i’ll sign AMA form! Cycle!
DO NOT WANT
Today my dad had this operation. I was frightened, but doctor sad that everything is fine and worked out well:)
@3DiegoF LOL
they open you up like a chicken!
@GoldKamil
if u have TOF that means some unoxygenated blood goes to ur circulation..thats not excellent. if u didn’t go into surgery, ur heart will malfunction as u get older..the heart always tries to compensate to some defects but it cannot compensate forever..u need ur heart to be fix or else u know what will happen..be more worried of what will happen if u didn’t go into surgery…but i know ur anxiety.
@GoldKamil I am terribly sorry that you had the misfortune of having these ingrained heart defects but I really do reckon you should learn more in this area your conditions. I’m bowled over to see that you don’t seem to be very well informed in this area your affect up and the procedures that have been performed on you so far. For model, it is ‘Tetralogy of Fallot’ (pronounced fall-o). Please talk to your surgeon and question him to clarify the treatment options- it will help you be more cool and more confident.
@thFreakMadda that means you a 95% of chances to live, that’s a excellent thing
@jabwarabe the mortality rate is around 5 %.
It’s incredible how much humans have achieved. Respect for the restless ones who are decoding the magic of the our body… *_*
well I joined the club 05/10/10 with tripple bypass. am doing well and have started a blog cardiaccuisine.blogspot to help me with my diet changes. please feel free to visit and help me find the healthy alternative foods I need to eat so I do not need this surgery again in the future.
underwent this surgery and lucky enough i’m in my 1 yr and 2 mos. now and so far i’m sweet well. during the cycle of my recovery it’s really very hard for me. thanks god for the success of my cabg.
I’ve had this three times
@00RAVENZ00 it wasn’t it was a doll
ok was tha a real life demonstration with a real person ?? plz answer
hope my sisters goes well like this 1 really nervous 4 her and hope it goes well for her
@oleark11 lol
@mattjonz222
I agree with you matt!
i wanna study and be a cardiac surgeon
OMG!!!
o my fucking god!!!!!!!!!! that shit is fucking disgusting
@triedge763 it is better to pay lots of money and get your heart fixed even though it is a bit of a risk. Lacking the operation you would die anyway in a painful way.
@mattjonz222 still it is sweet dangeres because some die so its 3/10 if a name dies because if i needed heart surgery id be nurves and plus how much do you need to pay for heart surgery?
I hope, i never gotta make one op like that.
i would never be able to operate on a name knowing that if my hand slips or i mess up then he’ll be dead
mechanical engineering FTW!!!
:/ it makes me wanna puke out my own guts( no offence if any of you have ever done so) but i hope that this nver happens to me
i dont wanna go to that and have the doctor stab my heart with one of those equipment
expecially if the person that is doing the surgery despises me and wants me dead!!!!
3:50 the black dude = dr. pediphile ….. also he can go to hell with that hair do
Cool is that how my heart looks like? O_o
