It depends on the type of surgery, how sick your friend is prior to surgery, how old your friend is, and how committed he/she is to recovery. Most open heart surgeries will require a four-seven day hospital stay
Typically the length of stay after straight forward heart surgery is between 4-6 days. It takes about 6-8 weeks for full recovery.
From five days to 2 weeks.
