Dr. Glenn Barnhart discusses the patient experience on the day of heart surgery at Swedish Medical Center. After an informative office visit, the patient arrives early in the morning. A cardiac anesthesiologist meets with the patient and the patient's family. The anesthesiologist keeps the family informed throughout the day, communicating progress and repairs. Patients typically rest in intensive care for a day or two immediately after surgery and then return to standard care. Patients are often discharged on the fourth post-operative day, depending on the individual surgery. For more information visit [ Ссылка ]
