Hello @mikeyingst, Welcome to Mayo Connect. I see you responded to a post made in 2019 regarding fear and open heart surgery. I am not sure the member will see your post as it has been 4 years, but perhaps you have some other questions for others facing open heart surgery? Is this something you are familiar with or perhaps are scheduled to have?

I have to have an aortic valve replaced, will I still be on the ventilator when I wake up? Is it full open heart surgery or is it manually invasive.
