- Symptomatic patients with angina, heart failure symptoms, or reduced heart function (ejection fraction) due to the combined pathologies.
- Failed management of symptoms with maximal medical therapy (medications) and/or less invasive interventions.
- To prevent irreversible heart damage, future cardiac events, or sudden cardiac death in eligible patients.
- Conditions like rheumatic heart disease or degenerative valve disease coinciding with advanced coronary artery disease.
How to prepare
- Comprehensive Evaluation: Undergo detailed tests including echocardiogram, coronary angiogram, blood tests, and chest X-ray.
- Medical Optimization: Manage existing conditions like diabetes or hypertension; adjust current medications as advised (e.g., stopping blood thinners).
- Lifestyle Adjustments: Cease smoking completely and limit alcohol intake well before surgery.
- Pre-operative Counseling: Discuss the procedure, risks, and recovery in detail with the cardiac surgeon and anesthesiologist.
- Fasting: Fast (no food or drink) for 8-12 hours as instructed before the surgery.

- Valve-Related Complications: Residual valve leakage, valve dysfunction requiring re-operation, or infection (endocarditis).
- Graft-Related Issues: Blockage or failure of the bypass grafts over time.
- Other Risks: Kidney dysfunction, lung complications, blood clots, and, in rare cases, mortality.

- Pain Management: Medications will be provided to manage post-surgical pain and discomfort.
- Early Mobilization: Gradual sitting up, walking, and breathing exercises begin soon after surgery to prevent complications.
- Cardiac Rehabilitation: A structured program of supervised exercise, education, and counseling is crucial for full recovery.

I'd been to a couple of other doctors for this nagging fatigue and stomach pain. They said it was just stress. Dr. Babu Vinish actually listened, asked a ton of questions I hadn't been asked before, and ordered some specific tests. Turns out it was a tricky thyroid issue affecting my digestion.
