Video #2 of 4 - What will be happening during your Open Heart Surgery - An Open Heart Surgery Series

This video describes in non-medical terminology what will be happening during your Open Heart Surgery. The descriptions are presented from a patient’s point of view and narrated by an actual open heart surgery patient. Both Bypass Patients (CABG) and Heart Valve Repair / Replacement patients (AVR / MVR) will understand the procedure much better after watching this easy to understand, step by step video explanation of the Open Heart Surgery (OHS) procedure. Even though there are differences in every surgery and there may be certain specifics that may not be addressed about your individual surgery, there are many similarities and those are what we do our best to describe. And by the way, this video does not contain a bunch of graphic surgical images.
