What is
Cardiovascular Diseases?
To function, our heart needs an adequate supply of blood to
provide oxygen which allows the muscles to contract and pump. The heart pumps
blood through the coronary arteries when these coronary arteries narrow it is
difficult for adequate blood to reach the heart. This can cause the heart
muscle to ache and lead to cardiovascular or coronary artery disease.
Cardiac surgeries are performed to correct heart diseases.
Cardiovascular diseases are one of the leading causes of death for both men and
women. Cardiology surgery is recommended to patients who are suffering from
cardiovascular disease. Cardiac problems can arise within the muscles of the
heart, arteries or the valves. Cardiology surgery is performed by cardiac
surgeons on heart or vessels. Cardiology surgery is a surgical procedure in
which the cardiac surgeon replaces the blocked coronary arteries with the veins
which are taken from the lower extremities of the patient. Coronary artery
bypass grafting (CABG) is one of the most common types of heart surgery. There
are different types of cardiovascular diseases which include a number of
conditions that affects the structures or function of the heart.

Types of Cardiology
Surgery
Coronary Artery
Bypass Grafting (CABG):- Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) is a
surgical procedure which is used to restore the flow of blood to the heart
muscle by diverting normal course around a section of blocked artery in the
heart. This surgery is used to Treats blocked heart arteries by creating new
passages for the blood to flow to the heart muscle. Coronary Artery Bypass

which are also called as grafts. Grafts are used to reroute the blood around
the clogged artery. A patient may need to undergo one, two, three or more
bypass grafts, depending on how many coronary arteries are blocked. Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery is one of the most common and effective procedures to
manage blockage of blood to the heart muscle. The surgery is Improves the
supply of blood and oxygen to the heart, Relieves the patient from the chest
pain, Reduces risk of heart attack And Improves the ability to perform physical
activity.
Heart Valve
Replacement Surgery:- Heart Valve Replacement surgery is required when any
one of the four heart valves does not function properly. In Heart Valve
Replacement surgery the, the surgeon repairs or replaces the defective heart
valve. Aortic Valve disease, Pulmonary Valve disease, Mitral Valve disease, and
Pulmonary Valve disease can be treated Heart Valve Replacement surgery.
