They will monitor you during the procedure (approx. 1 hour) and after the surgery.

Heart surgery can be used to treat a variety of coronary problems. Everything from valve issues, to holes in the heart, congenital defects, and heart attacks can all be successfully treated through surgery. Heart surgery can be used to bypass blocked arteries, repair faulty valves that control blood flow to the different chambers of the heart, implant devices to fix irregular heartbeats, or even to fix aneurysms. Whatever the reason for surgery, it can be both a life-saving and a life-extending procedure. Today's technology has made this procedure safer than it's ever been, and the success rates are amazing.

The term "open heart surgery" is really used incorrectly. We use it to mean a surgery where the chest is cut open to get the heart. A "bypass surgery" is where they cut open your chest and reroute the large blood vessels (arteries) on the outside of the heart. We do wrongfully call Bypass Surgery a type of Open Heart Surgery. But I would call a real "open heart surgery" where they cut open the chest and then cut open the heart to work inside the heart, like replace valves.
