Comparing and contrasting the 1952 and 2019 versions of the cornorary bypass surgery
SIMILARITIES
The modern-day bypass surgeries and the ones done back in 1952 are performed similarly on the fact that the antibiotics and method are the same. There are commonly two antibiotics used to stop the heart during this procedure. Both of these drugs are used now and back in 1952. The first drug is called adenosine which opens up the channels that transport potassium- ions. The second medication actually stops the heart; this drug is called lignocaine which blocks the sodium-ions channels and stops your heart from beating.
NOW
Now that we are in the 21st century, medical technology has really helped surgeons preform surgeors fater and more profenciantly. Today we have a very useful machine called a heart-lung machine which carries the same fluids, but faster than the IV transfusions. This machine allows surgeons at least 30 minutes depending on the patients level of condition. Best case senario, the patients heart can be on bypass for 90 minutes at the most. Any longer and there will be brain damage.
BACK THEN
In the mid 19 centuries, the adenosine and lignocaine are fused through the blood by an IV because that was the easiest way to stop back then although there was a downside to this because the IV fluids took longer to get to your heart so you didn't have a lot of time to perform the procedure.
1952 surgeons first time successfully stopping the restarting the heart. Modern-day transplant. (used blood transfusions and antibiotics to stop and restart the heart through IV) Now we use a bypass machine which is a similar concept. There is a certain amount of time that the heart can be stopped before it is dangerous so surgeons must work fast.
