Surgeon Q&A: Loud Heartbeats & High Heart Rates After Heart Surgery

In this video, we ask Dr. Junaid Khan, a leading cardiac surgeon from Alta Bates Summit Medical Center, two patient questions. The questions include, "Are loud heartbeats a common patient sensation after heart surgery?" and "Is it common for patients to have high heart rates after surgery to correct heart valve disease, coronary artery disease and atrial fibrillation?"
