1. By Pass Surgery
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.
2. ALKALINE PHOSPHATASE
High ALP levels may indicate liver disease, bone disorders, or bile duct obstruction.
Yes, certain medications and supplements can influence ALP levels. Inform your healthcare provider about all medications you are taking.
No, fasting is generally not required unless specified by your healthcare provider.
The frequency of testing depends on your health condition and your healthcare provider’s recommendations.
Abnormal ALP levels may indicate underlying health issues. Further evaluation and treatment may be necessary based on your test results.
3. Ophtalmology
Ophthalmologists treat a wide range of conditions including cataracts, glaucoma, macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and refractive errors like nearsightedness and farsightedness.
Adults should have a comprehensive eye exam at least once every two years, or more frequently if advised by your eye doctor based on your age, health, and risk factors.
Signs include blurred vision, difficulty seeing objects up close or far away, frequent headaches, eye strain, and squinting.
An eye exam involves tests for visual acuity, assessment of eye muscle function, pupil response, and examination of the retina and optic nerve. It may include dilation to allow a better view of the back of the eye.
Regular eye exams, maintaining a healthy diet rich in antioxidants, protecting your eyes from UV rays with sunglasses, and avoiding smoking can help reduce the risk of eye diseases.
