  2. Post Heart Surgery Expectations From as little as 3 months to even up to a year, you can expect full recovery after heart surgery, but the recovery may vary on certain factors. According to Dr Gokhale, Top Specialist for Heart Surgery, what you can expect during the post surgery recovery period are: • Follow up checks that include EKG, blood tests, Echocardiograms and stress test. • Doing light exercises which should be monitored by a medical professional • Psychological and Nutritional counselling, and • Having prescribed medications, which include those for making the blood thinner. www.drgokhale.com Call Us :9603040506

  3. Post Heart Surgery Expectations The life expectancy after heart surgery depends upon certain factors like the age of the patient,how good heart is functioning, risk factors and the care taken during the post surgery period. Long term clinical outcome after cabg surgery, also depends upon the working of the heart muscles and the condition of the ventricular function. If the left ventricular function is up to the expectation, the life expectancy may be similar to those who had never had heart attacks. Thecardiac surgery risk factors include the preexisting conditions of the cerebral, renal, vascular and hepatic functions of the body. Previous instability in any or more of these body functions may increase the risk factors and harm the quality of life after heart surgery. www.drgokhale.com Call Us : 9603040506
