Question

Before surgery, the surgical procedure and postoperative care were discussed with Mr. Peterson and his wife. As part of this teaching, the Petersons were taught that coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery was being done to: A. Venous blood is drained into the cardiopulmonary bypass machine B. C. improve myocardial blood flow

Answer 1

C. improve myocardial blood flow

Step-by-step explanation:

The CABG surgery is performed when coronary arteries supplying blood to heart tissue are blocked or narrowed. Hence CABG surgical procedure is performed to improve poor blood flow to the heart by grafting another body tissue in the coronary artery. Thus, this grafting procedure repair tissue damage and reduce arterial narrowing or blockage.
