THE BATTALi
Bill Clinton undergoe
successful heart surger
By Sam Dolnick
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CLINTON
NEWYORK
Bill Clinton
had a success
ful quadruple
heart bypass
operation
Monday to re
lieve severely
clogged arter
ies that doctors
said had put the former president
in grave danger of a major heart
attack sometime soon.
Clinton is expected to make a
full recovery, but doctors said he
was fortunate to have checked
himself into the hospital when
he did. The heart disease they re
paired was extensive, and block
age in several of Clinton’s arter
ies was “well over 90 percent,”
said Dr. Craig R. Smith, the sur
geon who led the operation.
“There was a substantial like
lihood that he would have had a
substantial heart attack,” said Dr.
Allan Schwartz, chief of cardiol
ogy at New York Presbyterian
Hospital/Columbia.
Smith said Clinton could leave
the hospital in four or live days.
Clinton was awake but sedated
about four hours after the opera
tion ended, Schwartz said.
The four-hour surgery came
three days after Clinton arrived
at the hospital complaining
of chest pain and shortness of
breath. But doctors said Clin
ton’s problems were not as sud
den as had been portrayed. He
had suffered shortness of breath
and tightness in his chest for
several months, blaming them
on off-and-on exercising and
acid reflux, his doctors said.
In addition, the former presi
dent had high blood pressure and
may not have been adequately
treated for high cholesterol. His
doctors said Monday he was put
on a cholesterol-lowering drug a
few days ago. Clinton was pre
scribed cholesterol medicine in
2001 as he was leaving office.
In a statement, Clinton’s
wife. Sen. Hillary Rodham
Clinton, thanked the hospi
tal staff for helping the family
through a trying time.
“Bill, Chelsea and I stayed
up pretty late last night talking,
playing games and just being
with each other,” the sena
tor said. “These past few days
have been quite an emotional
roller-coaster for us.”
She added: “The presij
optimism and faith will
him through the difficult
and months ahead oftln
have no doubt.”
In bypass surgery, doctor
move one or more blood vt
from elsewhere in the body
Clinton’s case, two arteries
the chest and a vein froc
leg and attach them to
ies serving the heart, deti
blood around blockages.
During the operation,
ton’s heart was stopped a
was put on a heart-lung m
for 73 minutes. That pr
used for more than 75 perc

risk of stroke and neurol
complications.

.lust an extra hour of exer
cise a week could significantly
cut obesity among young over
weight girls, according to a
study that researchers say could
lead to major changes in the way
schools figm obesity.
The study — the largest look
yet at obesity among young chil
dren — did not show the same
results for boys, possibly be
cause they generally get more
exercise than girls.
Still, Dr. Rebecca Unger, a
pediatrician at Children’s Memo
rial Hospital in Chicago, said the
findings show the important role
schools can play to prevent obe
sity and its health ramifications.
She said the study highlights
the importance of funding daily
physical education in the na
tion’s schools, where about 15
percent of children and adoles
cents are overweight, according
to government figures.
