A latest device for Heart bypass surgery was developed by a team of international Scientists that helps doctors to do the surgery on a heart that is beating.

Scientists from Moscow and their colleagues from Australia’s medical have developed a special device to enhance heart surgery with a stapler-like tool that restores the blood vessels using strong staples.

The stapler uses special flexible nickel titanium (nitinol). It is a reversible shape memory staples. The property of this metal is restoration of shape i.e., original shape can be restored after abnormal deformations. Innovations and Technology are significantly astonishing, the surgery that made people to believe is the first uterus transplant surgery – First Ever Uterus Transplant in U.S.

The staples are placed inside a cartridge and then inserted inside the polymer- body stapler’s distal end. In this technique Surgeons can simply drill two holes through it and place the bypass in place instead of separating the breast bone.

Researchers said, this new stitching instrument allows doctors to quickly and safely restore blood vessels and also it shortens the recovery period. While a normal heart bypass surgery takes up to five hours with doctors having to stop the heart but this latest surgery takes about an hour, and the patient can be discharged the following day.
