Heart Transplant Surgery

heart transplant surgery in india

A heart transplant is basically a medical process in which we remove an afflicted heart of patient by a healthy heart of donor. There is a need that two doctors must declare the patient brain dead in order to remove the heart from the donor. We determine that heart transplant surgery is the best treatment for your heart failure condition before going for it.

Basic information about heart and its working:

Heart is the most important muscle inside a human’s body located at the center of body beating around 115,000 a day. It pumps the blood to all the body parts making it a vital organ for the survival of human. At the time of rest also, it works hardest among all the body parts.

Reason for heart transplant Surgery

Doctors treat patients in condition of heart failing conditions through transplantation when any other treatment process doesn’t work. Mostly, doctors perform heart transplant surgery in case of congestive failure.

Congestive Heart Failure

 

When the heart becomes unable to pump blood through the body, such condition is congestive heart failure. End stage failure comes when all other treatments other than transplant fail to cure the heart in its ailing condition of inability to pump enough blood. In most cases, heart is unable to pump blood effectively because of its weakening state.

Some reasons of the failure are:-

  • Heart attack
  • Viral heart infection
  • Hypertension
  • Alcohol or drug abuse
  • Congenital conditions
  • Uncertain heartbeats
  • Anemia

Risks associated with heart transplant Surgery:-

 

Major operations like heart transplant surgery always see some complications. Few of them are listed as:

  • Heavy bleeding during or after the operation
  •  Problems in breathing
  •  Infection
  • Blood clots which may lead to heart attacks or lung problems.

Also sometimes, body does not accept new heart easily due to the variations in immune system. We suggest medications to patients so that they can trick the immune system and such medicines have side effects.

 

Some other after effects of heart transplant surgery are as follows:-

  • Metastatic cancer
  • Recurring infections
  • Serious medical problems

Patients must discuss with the doctor about their medical conditions prior to the treatment to prevent further problems.

 

Before the transplant

 

The patient undergoes several blood tests, psychiatry evaluations, diagnostic tests before the transplant. These tests are as much important as the transplant. Doctors will ask you few questions and also allow you to ask some before placing your name in organ sharing list.

In countries like Kenya, surgical operations related to heart and transplant services are not as remarkable as World Health Expert provides heart transplant surgery in India. We try to put patient out of risk situations as soon as they admit themselves.

      I came to see the doctor in WHE and he introduced me to the stem cell treatment. They took the stem cells from my bone marrow and fat and he injected them and it has been fabulous. I don’t have the aches and pains that I used to suffer from on a constant day to day basis. I would highly recommend it to anybody who’s looking for a remedy to their back pain and their aching joints.
