The duration varies but generally lasts between 1 to 4 hours, depending on the complexity and extent of the surgery.

The HBSAg Card test is highly accurate in detecting Hepatitis B surface antigen in the blood.

Yes, patient confidentiality is strictly maintained during HBSAg testing, and results are handled discreetly by trained healthcare professionals.

No, additional tests may be required to differentiate between acute (recently acquired) and chronic (long-term) Hepatitis B infection.

The test can detect Hepatitis B surface antigen early in the course of infection, typically within a few weeks after exposure.

A positive result requires further confirmation with additional tests. Counseling and appropriate medical care will be provided to manage Hepatitis B infection effectively.

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.
