A heart bypass surgery is where an artery from the leg or other part of the body is removed and placed onto the heart to bypass a blocked artery. There are many arteries in the heart, so if five are blocked, they could all be bypassed. However, it is unlikely that a person would survive a heart attack caused by five blocked arteries.

What is the morbidity rate of coronary artery bypass graft surgery?
Answer 5 year survival rate is 89.3% with CABG then PTCA. Please keep in mind that a person with this condition should work closely with their Cardiologist and family doctor. Don't always believe in percentages or that 5 year survival rate as patients astound specialists all the time with a much longer survival rate.
Is upper eyelid surgery recommended if you have an irregular heart beat?
Yes. My sister-in-law has been treated for an irregular heart beat for 5 years now and just a month ago she had eyelid surgery and faired very well. The surgeon will get all the specifics on you (be sure to tell the surgeon the medications you are on) and when surgery is scheduled it's usually on an "out patient basis" meaning you can go home in a few hours after surgery. They will monitor you during the procedure (approx. 1 hour) and after the surgery.
When the heart stops beating is the human being dead?
yea when you sneeze it stops beating for a second(Its not dangerous don't be scared). And when your frozen, that might be dangerous. You know you can be frozen but still alive. look at the website IAMLYINGDONTTRUSTME.YOURMOM
