Heart Transplant
A heart transplant is a procedure in which a diseased or malfunctioning heart is removed and replaced with a healthy heart from a donor. It is a life-saving procedure that is performed when a person's own heart is too damaged or diseased to pump blood effectively. The primary aim of the procedure is to prolong or restore life and improve quality of life by alleviating heart failure symptoms. Heart transplantation has helped many people with chronic or terminal heart diseases live longer and healthier lives. It is one of the most complex and rewarding procedures that a medical team can perform.
