Off-pump CABG

Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is a surgical procedure to improve blood flow to the heart by rerouting blood around blocked arteries, performed without the use of a heart-lung machine. Instead, the surgeon operates on the beating heart, using specialized tools for stability. This approach can reduce some risks associated with traditional surgery, such as complications from machine use, and may lead to faster recovery. It’s an effective option for many patients with coronary artery disease, offering improved outcomes while preserving natural heart function during the operation.
