Heart Bypass Surgery Cost in Chennai

 

Heart Bypass Surgery in India

 

The surgery done to restore the blood flow to the heart by creating a bypassed way around the blocked or obstructed artery is known as heart bypass surgery. It is generally done in cases of Coronary Artery Disease, in which the coronary arteries get obstructed or blocked as a result of atherosclerosis (deposition of fatty substances on the walls of the coronary arteries).

 

Who needs heart bypass surgery?

People who fundamentally have coronary artery disease or obstructed arteries due to any reason are recommended to heart bypass surgery. However, not everyone is eligible for the surgery. For example, people having the following conditions can cause complications:

  • Diabetes
  • Emphysema
  • Kidney disease
  • Peripheral Artery Disease

 

What is the cost of heart bypass surgery in Chennai?

 

The good news is that the overall heart bypass surgery cost in India is much less as compared to that in countries like the United States. For instance, the cost of heart bypass surgery in the USA is approximately around 40,000 USD. On the other hand, it may cost you around 4000 USD to 6000 USD (287230 INR to 430845 INR) in cities like Chennai in India. 

A team of the best cardiac surgeons in India is available round the clock to provide high-quality medical facilities.

Hospital Stay

Patients can receive treatments from the best heart surgery hospitals in IndiaJust after the surgery is done, the patient is moved to the Intensive Care Unit or ICU. A breathing tube is linked to helping them breathe from the ventilator. After you wake up after 2 to 4 hours and start breathing on your own, the breathing tube is removed. 

After a day or two in the ICU, the patient is moved to the recovery room. The hospital stay of the patient after coming out of ICU is approximately 3 - 5 days. After that, the patient is discharged.

Chennai

 

The healthcare system in Chennai is run by both government and private hospitals. It attracts about 45 percent of the health tourists overseas and 30-40 percent of the domestic patients. Chennai is known as the health capital of India as there are several Multi-speciality and super-specialty hospitals, which deal with nearly 150 patients each day. Some of the prime reasons for the superfluous inflow of the patients are:

  • Low cost
  • No waiting period
  • Advanced facilities
