Robotic Bypass Surgery: A Safer Alternative

Robotic bypass surgery is a modern, minimally invasive approach to treating heart blockages. By using smaller incisions, this technique significantly reduces the risk of infection, minimizes blood loss, and allows for a quicker recovery with less strain on the heart. It is especially beneficial for high-risk patients, including those with diabetes or elderly individuals, who may not tolerate traditional open-heart surgery well. As with any medical procedure, it’s important to consult your cardiac surgeon for personalized advice and to determine the best treatment option for your condition.

Mitral Valve Disease: Now Treated with Safer and More Precise Robotic-Assisted Surgery

Mitral valve disease is a serious heart condition, but advancements in medical technology have made its treatment much safer and more precise. Robotic-assisted surgery allows surgeons to repair or replace the mitral valve through small incisions using a robotic system—without the need to open the chest or cause significant blood loss. This minimally invasive approach offers several benefits, including less pain, faster recovery, and shorter hospital stays. In India, this technique is rapidly gaining popularity due to its effectiveness and patient-friendly outcomes..

Heart surgery without a big chest cut is no longer just a dream—thanks to advancements in medical technology, Minimally Invasive Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) is now a reality. Unlike traditional bypass surgery, which involves a large incision and cutting through the breastbone, minimally invasive CABG is performed through small incisions between the ribs, typically on the left side of the chest. The heart is accessed without opening the entire chest, leading to significantly less pain, reduced scarring, and a much faster recovery. This technique is especially suitable for patients with single, double or triple vessel disease, particularly involving the left anterior descending artery (LAD). With benefits such as shorter hospital stays, lower risk of infection, and quicker return to daily life, minimally invasive CABG represents a major step forward in cardiac care. Not every patient is a candidate, but for those who are, it offers a safer, less traumatic alternative to traditional open-heart surgery..

Heart surgery has advanced into a new era with the precision of robotic technology, making the removal of heart tumors safer and less traumatic. Robotic-assisted surgery allows surgeons to access even complex or hard-to-reach tumors with unmatched accuracy through small incisions. This minimally invasive approach reduces the strain on the body, lowers the risk of complications, and promotes faster healing. As a result, patients experience less pain, shorter hospital stays, and are able to return home and resume normal activities much sooner. Robotic precision is transforming heart tumor surgery into a safer and more patient-friendly procedure..

Heart surgery has entered a new era with the introduction of robotic-assisted technology, revolutionizing the way procedures like Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) are performed. Using advanced robotic arms, surgeons can now operate with remarkable precision through tiny incisions, significantly reducing trauma to the body. Although every movement is still controlled by the surgeon, the robotic system enhances accuracy and steadiness, allowing for delicate maneuvers in hard-to-reach areas. This minimally invasive approach leads to less pain, fewer complications, reduced hospital stays, and a much faster recovery for patients. Robotic heart surgery is not just a medical advancement—it's a better experience for the patient, with quicker healing and a faster return to daily life..

Can you get a heart attack while exercising?

The answer is YES.

Several reasons for it are:
1. Undiagnosed Heart Problems: in case a person has congenital (by birth) or acquired (during growing old) heart problem and it has not been diagnosed, it can get aggravated during extreme exercise

2. Sudden massive bouts of exercise: If people who have a sedentary lifestyle for a long time and are unhealthy and obese, suddenly start massive bouts of exercise trying to get fit fast, they might have heart problems as body is not used to extreme excercise and hidden heart conditions might get aggravated

3. Underlying diseases like diabetes mellitus, hypertension and obesity also contribute to heart diseases and sudden excessive exercise can lead to exacerbated (increased) heart problems

4. Smoking to***co: Several studies have found positive correlation between to***co smoking and cardiovascular diseases.

It is extremely important to consult your doctor, get checked early, exercise regularly, quit smoking and avoid all sorts of complications to lead a healthy and happy life

Advancement in Diagnosis and Treatment of Heart problems

Advanced Cardiac diagnostics like CT coronary angiography, 3D echocardiography, Cardiac MRI, Nuclear medicine scans, Electrophysiology Study (EP study), Cardiac Catheterisation study and Coronary angiography including FFR help in easy and early diagnosis of heart problems and also guide towards best possible treatment.

Advanced Heart Therapies include precision therapies for Coronary Artery Stenting including IVUS and OCT, Catheter based Valve implantation and repair (TAVI, Mitral clip), catheter based devices for treatment of hole in the heart or overgrown muscle, Radiofrequency ablations for treatment of arrhythmias and leadless pacemakers for treatment of various heart diseases.

When surgery is required for coronary artery disease, heart valve disease, tumour in the heart or chest, hole in the heart, Robotic Heart Surgery has literally transformed the way patients feel about surgery where heart surgery is performed through tiny holes in the chest without cutting chest bone or ribs enabling the surgeon to perform complex procedures with precision and ease. It also benefits the patients in the form of less pain, less complications and faster recovery.

It is extremely important for all to know about advancements in medicine to choose the best possible treatment options early so as to avoid any complications or prolonged suffering..

अगर आप जिम नहीं जाते, फिर भी दिल से संबंधित समस्याओं से बच सकते हैं?

जवाब है - हां!

डॉ. वरुण बंसल बताते हैं कि स्वस्थ हृदय के लिए केवल जिम जाना जरूरी नहीं है। सही जीवनशैली अपनाकर भी आप अपने दिल को मजबूत बना सकते हैं:

✅ नियमित वॉक करें – रोजाना 30 मिनट की तेज़ चाल हृदय को स्वस्थ रखती है।
✅ संतुलित आहार लें – फल, सब्जियां, सूखे मेवे और हेल्दी फैट को डाइट में शामिल करें।
✅ तनाव कम करें – मेडिटेशन और पर्याप्त नींद से मानसिक शांति बनाए रखें।
✅ धूम्रपान और शराब से बचें – ये दिल की बीमारियों का बड़ा कारण बन सकते हैं।
✅ ब्लड प्रेशर और कोलेस्ट्रॉल कंट्रोल में रखें – नियमित हेल्थ चेकअप कराते रहें।

सिर्फ जिम ही नहीं, बल्कि रोजमर्रा की हेल्दी आदतें अपनाकर भी आप अपने दिल को सुरक्षित रख सकते हैं!

Is Robotic Cardiac Surgery actually expensive?

Robotic technology definitely has a little extra upfront cost as it involves technology, technique, specialized instruments, surgical expertise.

However over a very short period of time it is economical as there is lesser need of medications and shorter stay in hospital or at home when compared to conventional surgery - as it has been observed and studies have reported

Patients can join back work within 1-2 weeks and can return to their active life

The advantages include no cutting of chest bone, lesser bleeding, lesser pain, quick recovery and many more

It is important to take an informed decision after consulting specialists and discussing best possible treatment options.
