Heart Transplant Surgery

What is a Heart Transplant?

A heart transplant is a surgery that saves lives by replacing a damaged or failing heart with a healthy heart from a donor. It is usually advised for people with end-stage heart failure or serious heart diseases that can't be treated with medicine, lifestyle changes or less invasive treatments. A heart transplant gives you a second chance at life and makes your life longer and better in many ways.

Who Needs a Heart Transplant?

Heart transplant surgery is considered for patients who have:

·         End-stage heart failure

·         Cardiomyopathy (disease of the heart muscle)

·         Severe coronary artery disease

·         Congenital heart defects

·         Life-threatening arrhythmias unresponsive to treatment

We thoroughly check patients with physical exams, blood testing and psychological tests to make sure they are healthy enough for the surgery and can handle the care after the transplant.

How the Procedure Works

When a compatible donor heart is found, the transplant is done while the person is under general anesthetic. The surgeon takes out the patient's sick heart and puts in the donor heart, connecting it to the main blood veins. The procedure usually takes between four and six hours and then the patient stays in the intensive care unit (ICU) for close monitoring.

Patients are given immunosuppressive drugs after the transplant to keep their bodies from rejecting the new heart. For long-term success, it is important to have regular follow-ups and checkups.

Recovery and Life After Transplant

After a heart transplant, you have to stay in the hospital for a few weeks and get close medical care for months. With the right care, a lot of patients can go back to their daily activities, such employment and modest exercise, in 3 to 6 months. Making changes to your lifestyle, going to regular check-ups, and taking your medications exactly as directed are all important for long-term success. Patients can enjoy active and satisfying lives following a transplant if they get the correct help.
