6-8 DaysHeart bypass surgery, medically known as coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), is a life-saving procedure performed to restore blood flow to the heart. It is used to bypass blocked or narrowed arteries, ensuring the heart receives adequate oxygen-rich blood. This surgery is commonly recommended for patients with severe coronary artery disease (CAD), where medication or less invasive procedures like angioplasty are insufficient.
Globally, heart bypass surgery is among the most frequently performed cardiac procedures, with approximately 1 million surgeries conducted annually. In India alone, over 420 cardiac centers perform around 3,00,000 procedures each year, making it a hub for affordable and advanced cardiac care.
The surgery involves creating a new route for blood flow using a healthy blood vessel taken from another part of the body, such as the leg, arm, or chest. This new graft bypasses the blocked arteries, enabling improved blood circulation to the heart. It’s typically performed under general anesthesia and can take 3 to 6 hours, depending on the complexity.

Patients are closely monitored in the ICU for 1-2 days post-surgery before being moved to a general ward. A hospital stay of 6 to 8 days is common, followed by a recovery period of 4 to 6 weeks at home. Lifestyle changes such as adopting a heart-healthy diet, quitting smoking, and regular exercise are crucial to ensure long-term success.
India offers world-class cardiac care at competitive prices, with highly skilled surgeons, state-of-the-art infrastructure, and comprehensive medical facilities. This makes it a top choice for both domestic and international patients seeking quality care.
