Open hearts have changed over the last 20 years. If you have blockage an aed is not going to change that, just get you a jump start. No more standing in the same spot for a 10 hour surgery. Bypass and valves can be done less invasive unless the back of the heart comes into play. it's only a few hours, or less. Been doing hearts since 1975. Great changes are still coming.
