I answered this question some time ago for a woman's sister...I've copied it into this post...just change all the she's to "he"
During sugery, they will use a bone saw to perform a "sternotomy" which means to open the chest. They will most likely harvest some veins from her lower leg and use these to serve as little "alternate routes" for the arteries of the heart. A single bypass means that one arterie needs to be bypassed, a double means two need to be bypassed, etc.
She will remain on a ventilator for at least a day or two (sometimes more) after surgery. She will have many "tubes and wires" including a line in the neck to measure the pressure of the artery to the lung, an arterial line at the wrist, an aortic balloon pump in her groin (will be unable to move the leg for the first day), many IV's, a foley catherter to drain the bladder, compression devices on the legs to prevent blood clots, a heart monitor, and a blood pressure cuff. Some times there may be more. She will be watched closely in a cardiovascular instensive care unit for the first few days until she has been weaned off the ventilator. Physical therapy may be consulted to start teaching her how to get out of bed without damaging her incisions (they are not allowed to use their arms to roll, sit up, push up, etc). By the 3-5th day, a caridac rehab specialist may start working with her to teach her exercising and monitor her heart rate while walking (this might also be done by the PT). By this time, the person has usually moved to another unit where their heart can be monitored remotely. Depending on her progress, she may be discharged home within 5 days post-operatively or may require a stay at an extended care facility.
The incision is frequently painful, but pain meds are administered to keep this controlled. Depression frequently occurs after this surgery and should be monitored closely. A nutritionist will most likely be following her case and educate her on an appropriate diet.
Most likely, she will not remember the first 3 or 4 days after surgery...sometimes it's better that way.
I dont have any good web sites, ask his doctor for that.
BUT i have gone through this with my Dad. Fortunately science has come a LONG way, and these procedures are common, routine, and have an excellent recovery rate. It will take some time for your Dad to be back up and running, can take 6 months to be back to normal...But the good news, is there's a great chance that all will be back to normal.
As far as the procedure is concerned, the doctors will take good veins from his arms and legs and replace them to his heart where the existing veins are blocked with Colesteral...
I don't really wanna go on too deep because I dont want to give u misinfo...just know that HE SHOULD BE FINE...Its a tough operation, but he'll get through it.
Good Luck..and God Bless.
if a person found blood in his boxers from his penis and when he urinated there was a bit of blood.?
He will be fine! My mom had lots of heart surgeries since I was 6 yrs old. The technology has improved so much you just cannot imagine! Her first on was at 31 and they wired her chestbone together with a regular wire! 6 mo before her,s a man we knew didn't make it because it was such a new medical procedure!A man stood there and pumped her blood by hand the whole time. She had drs make up things to fix her heart,she had pig valves, a plastic valve that sounded like a Timex watch-takes a licking and keeps on ticking! You could hear her ticking across the room! She said it didn't bother her, the noise was great to hear when you thought of the alternative! They devised a different pace maker for her in her later years and it worked also. The young drs came to listen to her and see her tests everytime she went to the dr or hospital because she was such a medical history that was walking around! They told her when I was six that she probably would not live to raise me to 18. She lived until I was 51!! She had a great attitude and loved the Lord and her family. One surgery she said she wanted to live long enough to see grandkids-she had 11. Another one she wanted to see great-g-kids-she had18.And she also had a great-great- grandson before she finally went home to see Jesus!! Put your Dad in God's hands and don't worry. God knows exactly what to do! Be strong for your mom and help her through this. It is tiring for a young person to sit in a hospital because of the stress and being away from your home and comfort. I witnessed many many bypass surgery families and patients over the years and never saw one come out bad. The bypass patients get up that afternoon and some take a shower! I am not kidding most do at Baylor Hosp. in Dallas, Tx. It was an awesome sight to see these sick people get up and feel great so soon. Have a good day and let God have your troubles!
