Key result
Hybrid cardiovascular surgery combines percutaneous and surgical techniques to offer lower-risk procedures for patients with multiple comorbidities and complex cardiovascular diseases.
Why the study?
Percutaneous and surgical techniques alone cannot be successful or carry high risk in patients presenting with multiple comorbidities and cardiovascular diseases.
Hybrid cardiovascular surgery combines percutaneous and surgical techniques to offer lower-risk procedures for complex patients with multiple comorbidities.
Hybrid techniques may enable safer care in comorbid patients; leaves open need for prospective validation before adoption.
Today, cardiologists and cardiovascular surgeons are more likely to encounter patients with multiple comorbidities and cardiovascular diseases. Percutaneous and surgical techniques alone cannot be successful or are high risk in these patients. By using the strengths of the two methods in a hybrid manner, low-risk procedures can be performed in these patients. With the developing technology, new hybrid procedures can be created for myocardial revascularization, heart valve diseases, aortic and peripheral vascular diseases.
