Baby Aspirin After Heart Surgery: What Should Patients Know?

https://www.Heart-Valve-Surgery.com - For over 30 years, baby aspirin has been recommended for the prevention and the management of heart disease. For example, the American Heart Association has recommended low-dose aspirin for "those at risk of heart attack (if prescribed by their doctor) and for those who have survived a heart attack". However, new medical research has emerged that has people asking questions about the benefits, the risks and the use of baby aspirin for patients who underwent heart valve repair and heart valve replacement operations. For example, Duncan asked the HeartValveSurgery.com team, "Adam: I had an aortic cow valve replacement and single coronary artery bypass graft. I was immediately put on a baby aspirin after surgery. Now, I’m reading reports that bleeding risks from baby aspirin may be more significant than potential cardiac issues. I bleed easily. What is the latest recommendation specific to the use of baby aspirin for patients with tissue valves?" For this reason, we interviewed Dr. Marc Gerdisch, the Chief of Cardiac Surgery at Franciscan Health in Indianapolis, Indiana, to answer Duncan's question and to help all patients better understand the benefits, risks and use of low-dose aspirin after heart surgery.
