Importance of Heart Bypass Surgery Videos

Overview

The heart is a fist-sized organ that pumps blood throughout the body. It is the primary organ of the circulatory system which contains four main chambers made of muscle and powered by electrical impulses.

It also works with other body systems to control or maintain the heart rate and blood pressure. Several factors affect the normal functionality of the heart. Since the heart is the main organ that flows blood all over the body, it is important to take good care of the heart.

 A cardiologist is a healthcare provider who can treat chest pain, high blood pressure, and heart failure, as well as problems with the heart valves, blood vessels, and other heart and vascular issues. In today’s stressful era of continuous working, people often forget to pay attention to their health which causes serious heart-related issues like Vein blockage, heart attack, arrhythmic heartbeat, high blood pressure, and many other issues.

Providing information via different means can be very fruitful. A great way to share information about cardiac issues is via videos. Videos on critical cardiac and related issues are the answers to educating patients about the diseases and also aim to improve their health by encouraging compliance with medical treatment regimens and promoting healthy lifestyles altogether which can be made easy via the help of simple yet informative videos.

It’s been seen that patients often misinterpret the information provided by their doctor which results in lethal outcomes. In today’s era, practitioners often assume that their explanations regarding the situations and procedures are easy to understand but in reality, it becomes really hard for patients to keep up with the jargon or phrases that doctors often use. Providing Health and disease-related information is the responsibility of a doctor before he commences any medical treatment, just to ensure that the patient understands what the procedure is for and the patient agrees to it. The hindrance of providing clear information can easily be solved via Videos which acts as a common bridge between a doctor and their patients. It is proven that Visuals are a more efficient way to convey health or disease-related information by a practitioner to their patients.

What is the importance of Heart Bypass Surgery Videos?

The heart is one of the main organs in the body and like any other organ in the body, the heart needs a constant supply of blood which is supplied by 2 large blood vessels called the left and right coronary arteries. These arteries can become narrowed and hardened by the build-up of fatty deposits called plaques, this whole process of blocking of arteries is known as Atherosclerosis. People with atherosclerosis of the coronary arteries are said to have coronary heart disease, which increases with age. Chances of having this disease if you:

  • smoke
  • overweight or obese
  • or have a high-fat diet.

Coronary heart disease causes angina, which is a chest pain that occurs when oxygen-rich blood becomes restricted or delivered in much less quantity to the heart.

Another life-threatening factor, a heart attack can be caused by a blood clot in these arteries due to the possibility of plaque deposition in these arteries causing coronary arteries rupturing causing blood clots.

A coronary artery bypass graft may be recommended to reduce the chances of having a heart attack. A coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) is a surgical procedure used to treat coronary heart disease. It diverts blood around narrowed or clogged parts of the major arteries to improve blood flow and oxygen supply to the heart.

While consultation, it is often seen that the practitioner and the patient tend to be not on the same page, meaning the information that the practitioner provides is often misunderstood by the patients which creates a knowledge barrier between the both. Practitioners consulting via heart bypass surgery videos increase patient engagement and knowledge about what can be expected during a medical procedure. Patients feel embarrassed about asking questions like how the procedure will be done, what it will look like, what are the precautions to be taken, why medicine has been prescribed, what side effects to look out for, and what to do if you are experiencing problems. At the time of consultation, important and yet complex medical-related information may take time to understand fully, even for patients with good health literacy.

Good communication with a practitioner makes it more understandable for patients to benefit from their treatment and helps to ensure the best-suited treatment for them which can be done by consulting via heart bypass surgery patient education videos.
