Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) at Fortis Hospital Anandapur, Kolkata
About The Procedure
Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG), commonly known as Heart Bypass surgery/ Coronary Bypass surgery, is a surgical procedure which creates alternate routes for blood to flow to the heart tissue, bypassing the narrowed/blocked arteries (leading to what is known as Coronary Artery Disease). For this purpose, a healthy blood vessel (also called a graft) taken from one area of patient’s own body is placed around the narrowed/blocked area to restore blood flow to the heart. The goal of this procedure is to relieve symptoms of coronary artery disease (including angina), enable the patient to resume a normal lifestyle and to lower the risk of a heart attack or other heart problems.
About CABG Clinical Outcomes
CABG outcome indicators provide measures of overall success of the surgery and patient’s post-procedure clinical condition. These parameters are globally accepted evidence-based scientific criteria to indicate quality of procedure and patient’s health status. Fortis hospitals measure the following outcomes parameters for CABG, and our performance consistently matches the global benchmarks set by best-in-class hospitals.
