Possible Risks from having Open-Heart Surgery [ edit | edit source ]
There are many possible complications after an Open Heart Surgery. The postoperative risk factors can be related to various factors including albumin, TLC and BMI.[5] Some possible complications after a cardiac surgery are:[6] [7] [8] [9]
Heart attack or stroke
Heart rhythm problems; such as atrial fibrillation
Infection in the cut, which is more likely to happen in people who are obese, have diabetes , or have already had this surgery
Memory loss and loss of mental clarity, or "fuzzy thinking"
Post-pericardiotomy syndrome, which is a low-grade fever and chest pain. This could last for up to 6 months.
Acute Renal Failure
Metabolic complications like hyperglycaemia, hypokalemia and increased free fatty acid concentration.
Prosthetic Heart Valves are Associated with a Variety of Complications [ edit | edit source ]
