Heart Transplantation In India

A heart transplant is an operation in which a failing heart is replaced with a healthier donor heart. Heart transplant is a treatment that's usually reserved for people whose condition hasn't improved enough with medications or other surgeries.

Procedure for Heart Transplantation:

You will be given anaesthesia so that you will sleep through the surgery. You also will receive immunosuppressive drugs before and during the procedure to prevent your body from rejecting the new heart.

• The surgery involves:
• A major incision down your chest. Your breastbone is split in half.
• Your main arteries are connected to a heart lung bypass machine to pump your blood and a ventilator will help you breathe.
• Most heart transplants are done with a method called orthotopic surgery, where most of your heart is removed but the back half of both upper chambers, called atria, are left in place. Then the front half of the donor heart is sewn to the back half of the old heart.
• The donor's aorta and pulmonary arteries are connected to yours. The bypass machine is disconnected and your new heart begins the work of pumping blood.
• Your incisions are closed.
