Cardiac Surgery is one of the most important surgeries being performed. Cardiac Surgery is a surgery being performed on the muscles, valves and/ or arteries of the heart. Surgeons cut the chest open and perform their job. This surgery usually takes about four to six hours. One important procedure that is done before the surgery is the surgeons put the heart on bypass by simply connecting a machine called heart-lung machine also known as cardiopulmonary bypass machine. With this machine the heart is able to keep pumping and gets oxygen to the blood. This surgery is important because a big percentage of people are getting surgery done on the heart due to heart problems, such as diabetes, irregular heartbeat, or having cancer.In addition, as years pass technology is advancing and it is a big improvement in medicine because medicine is very complicated and with that kind of technology it helps the doctors save lives.
