Hi Mr Singh, is he on regular followup? Patients following bypass can have disturbances of rhythm (arrhythmias) for some time. but, if high pulse rate is persisting, get an ECG and consult your cardiologist. If it is an arrythmia, it requires treatment like change or addition of drugs. All the bset.
