How long does it take for cardiac surgery?
The duration of surgery may last from 3 hours to 6 hours depending on the procedure and the nature of surgery.
Which is the most painful, Open Heart or Laparoscopic Surgery?
Open heart surgery is considered to be more painful than minimally invasive heart surgery. The open heart surgery includes an incision in the chest that comes with a recovery period of around 6 to 8 weeks.
What is the recovery period of the minimally invasive heart surgery?
On average the MICS takes a recovery period of around 2 to 4 weeks that can vary based on the age, health and genetics of an individual.
How long do I have to stay in the hospital after the surgery?
The average stay after the minimally invasive surgery is 3 to 5 days. Whereas, in case of open heart surgery the staying period can last up to 7 to 10 days.
Where will I stay after the surgery?
Most of the patients after open heart surgery are kept in an Intensive Care Unit (ICU) for around 7 to 10 days. Whereas, in the case of minimally invasive surgery the patients are kept in a surgical ward for 3 to 4 days.
