Bypass surgery, also known as Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG), is a procedure to replace damaged or blocked arteries in the heart with blood vessels from another part of the body.

Patients with severe coronary artery disease, where the arteries are significantly narrowed or blocked, may need bypass surgery to improve blood flow to the heart.

A surgeon takes a healthy blood vessel from your leg, arm, or chest and connects it to the blocked coronary artery, bypassing the blocked section to improve blood flow.

Risks include infection, bleeding, heart attack, stroke, and reactions to anaesthesia, though serious complications are rare.

The surgery typically lasts between 3 to 6 hours, depending on the number of arteries being bypassed and the patient’s condition.

The Anti-Cardiolipin Antibody Test detects antibodies against cardiolipin, aiding in the diagnosis of antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) and evaluating the risk of blood clots.

A blood sample is collected from your arm and analyzed for the presence of anti-cardiolipin antibodies.

No special preparation or fasting is required. You can eat and drink normally before the test.

Results are typically available within 1-2 days, depending on the laboratory’s processing time.

Discuss any abnormal results with your healthcare provider for guidance on further tests or treatment options based on your specific condition.
