All to Know about Cardiovascular and Thoracic Surgery
The important function of the heart is pumping oxygen-bearing blood to all parts of the body. Cardiac surgery includes a set of surgeries that are performed on the heart muscle, valves, or blood vessels. Healing Consulting provides you with all needed information about cardiovascular and thoracic surgery as follows.
Cardiovascular and Thoracic Surgery
Open Heart Surgery
Open heart surgery is a cardiac surgery type that is performed by the help of the heart-lung machine, which takes over the work of the heart and lungs in purifying the blood from carbon dioxide gas, supplying it with oxygen, and transporting it to the rest of the body during the cardiac surgery. This heart operation can also be performed by replacing one of the heart valves that stopped working, repairing congenital heart defects, or transplanting a new heart from a deceased donor.
Moreover, it should be noted that the cardiothoracic surgeonhas to be informed about the medicines that the patient is taking during the preparation phase of the surgery, and then the operation is performed by making an incision in the sternum or the breastbone under general anesthesia. The patient later is moved to intensive care unit (ICU) for a better care. At Healing Consulting Hospitals, we do provide patients with the best care after heart operations to ensure a proper function of this organ…Read-More
Robotic Surgery for Heart
The term robotic-assisted cardiac procedure, also known as “da Vinci” surgery, represents a heart surgery that is performed by the help of a controlled robotic-machine. The robot is equipped with a camera and arms of surgical instruments that allows the cardiothoracic surgeon to perform the operation through creating small incisions without the need to cut the sternum or open the chest surgically in order to reduce the area of the surgical incision and limit the loss of blood. In addition, the robot that is connected to the computer provides a three-dimensional view of the surgical area which increases the accuracy and flexibility of performing the surgery and reduces the recovery time that the patient usually needs after having any heart surgery.
Healing Consulting Centers for robotic cardiac surgeries are equipped with such machines to provide patients with the best methods of performing surgeries and ensure the best post-operative medical care for a faster recovery…Read-More
Vascular Surgery
Vascular surgery is a surgical subspecialty in which diseases of the vascular system, arteries, veins and lymphatic circulation are managed by a medical treatment. It can also be viewed as a congenital cardiac surgery that treats congenital vascular diseases, such as renal artery stenosis, aortic stenosis, aneurysms, and congenital and acquired anomalous vasodilators. It also treats vasculopathy diseases due to diabetes, atherosclerosis, microvascular ischemic diseases and vascular lesions due to trauma and fractures…Read-More
Pediatric Cardiac Surgery
Pediatric cardiac surgery is a congenital cardiac surgery i.e. it is used to treat young children’s heart diseases existing since birth. This cardiac surgery also focuses on treating defects in the shape of the heart or the heart wall, publicly known as heart perforation, that are defects of the atrial or ventricular septum which lead to mixing blood loaded with oxygen with that loaded with carbon dioxide. Furthermore, the surgery treats the defects of the heart valves, such as expanding or narrowing them and birth defects that affect the blood vessels. This cardiac surgery, as in others, is considered an important treatment to provide a normal life for children away from breathing difficulties, cyanosis, fatigue when moving, poor growth and weight loss…Read-More
