About Cardiac Surgeon

Surgery is a medical specialty that makes use of manual machinery and instrumental techniques on a person to either find out or treat a disease or injury, to help better the body’s function, appearance, or to repair unwanted ruptured areas. A cardiothoracic surgeon focuses on the organs inside the chest, mainly the heart and lungs, though in most countries the heart and lungs have separate specialties. A cardiac surgeon is one that only performs heart related procedures treating heart diseases. Surgeons must first obtain a bachelor’s degree from an accredited university and while there’s not a specific major that’s needed to become a surgeon, most people will choose to study science, others may choose to study biology, health science, chemistry, kinesiology, and physics. While in university, they need to fulfill pre-med course requirements, gain experience, and complete their MCAT to get into medical school. Once finished with med school, the student will have to complete surgical residency which will take five years. An additional two years-three years is required to become a cardiac surgeon. 

What They Can Do

A cardiac surgeon is able to perform heart surgery techniques like open-heart surgery, modern beating-heart surgery, and more. With open heart surgery, the patient’s heart is opened while the surgeon performs surgery on the internal structures of it. This technique is used to repair or replace heart valves, repair damaged or abnormal areas of the heart, insert medical devices that help the heart-beat the right way, and for heart transplantation. Modern beating-heart surgery or off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery is coronary artery bypass surgery without a cardiopulmonary bypass. The heart is beating during the procedure while being stabilized so that the surgeon can work in an almost still work area.  

Types

There aren’t different types of Cardiac Surgeons but they can be differentiated with the amount of experience and additional skills they have.
