Restoring Heart Health with Precision and Care
Heart disease is one of the leading health concerns worldwide, often caused by lifestyle, stress, or genetics. When blocked arteries restrict blood flow, a Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) surgery can save lives by restoring circulation and preventing heart attacks. At Turkey’s premier hospitals, CABG is performed using advanced techniques, highly experienced cardiac surgeons, and world-class facilities to ensure the best outcomes for every patient.
🩺 What Is Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) Surgery?
CABG is a life-saving open-heart surgery used to treat severe coronary artery disease. During the procedure:
✔️ A healthy blood vessel is taken from the leg, arm, or chest.
✔️ It is grafted onto the blocked coronary artery.
✔️ This bypasses the blockage and restores normal blood flow to the heart muscle.
CABG is globally recognized as the gold standard for patients with multiple blocked arteries, severe angina, or high risk of heart attack.
🩺 Types of CABG Surgery
Different patients require different approaches, and at Medical Park Hospitals, every option is available:
✔️ Conventional CABG – Uses a heart-lung machine to circulate blood during surgery.
✔️ Off-Pump CABG – Performed without the heart-lung machine, lowering certain risks.
✔️ Triple Bypass Surgery – Used when three arteries are blocked.
✔️ Minimally Invasive CABG (MICS) – Smaller incisions for quicker healing.
✔️ Robotics-Assisted CABG – Greater precision using advanced robotic systems.
✔️ Hybrid CABG + PCI – Combines bypass surgery with stent placement for complex cases.
🩺 Who Is a Good Candidate for CABG?
CABG is generally recommended for:
✔️ Patients with severe coronary artery disease (CAD) or multiple blocked arteries.
✔️ Those with angina unresponsive to medications.
✔️ Individuals who have suffered a heart attack or myocardial infarction.
✔️ Patients with left main artery disease or triple vessel disease.
✔️ People with failed stent placement or angioplasty.
✔️ Diabetic patients with multivessel CAD.
📝 Consultation & Preparation
Every CABG journey begins with a careful consultation and a structured preparation plan to ensure patient safety and best outcomes.
✔️ Patients undergo a full cardiovascular evaluation, including ECG, echocardiography, angiography, and blood work.
✔️ Medical history and current medications are reviewed — adjustments may be made, especially with blood thinners and diabetes drugs.
✔️ Lifestyle guidance is provided: stop smoking, avoid alcohol, and maintain a heart-healthy diet weeks before surgery.
✔️ Patients are instructed to fast before surgery due to the use of general anesthesia.
✔️ Doctors discuss the procedure in detail to set realistic expectations and reduce anxiety.
✔️ If needed, counseling is provided to prepare both mentally and physically for surgery.
🩺 Recovery & Aftercare
CABG recovery is a structured, step-by-step process aimed at restoring heart function and overall health.
✅ Immediate Recovery: Patients spend the first 1–2 days in the ICU under close monitoring, with ventilator support if needed. Pain and fluid management are provided.
✅ Hospital Stay: Most patients remain 5–7 days in the hospital, progressing from intensive care to a regular ward as recovery stabilizes.
✅ At Home: Walking short distances, avoiding heavy lifting, and gradually increasing activity is advised. Proper wound care and medication adherence are essential.
✅ 3–6 Months: Full recovery takes up to 6 months. Patients usually return to daily activities and light work within 6–12 weeks.
✅ Long-Term Care: Lifelong lifestyle changes are crucial — quitting smoking, eating heart-healthy meals, reducing stress, and attending cardiac rehabilitation sessions.
