A
The procedure is primarily used to treat arrhythmias by implanting a pacemaker.

The procedure is a non-invasive technique that uses medication to dissolve coronary blockages.
Verified step by step guidance1
Explain the purpose of a Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) procedure, which is to improve blood flow to the heart by bypassing blocked coronary arteries.
Clarify that the procedure involves using a vein or artery from another part of the body, such as the saphenous vein from the leg or the internal mammary artery from the chest, to create a new pathway for blood flow.
Discuss the surgical process, where the surgeon will make an incision in the chest to access the heart and attach the graft to the coronary artery beyond the blockage.
Inform the client about the recovery process, including the hospital stay, potential risks, and the importance of follow-up care and lifestyle changes to maintain heart health.
Address any misconceptions by explaining that CABG is not used to treat arrhythmias, does not involve replacing the heart with an artificial heart, and is not a non-invasive technique using medication.
