How much time to perform heart surgey?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Heart surgery: The time a procedure takes is related to what the actual procedure is, the complications likely in the individual patient, the skill level of the surgical team and some intangibles. There are 'average' times for each procedure but really things vary because 'stuff happens.'
