Heart transplantation is a surgical procedure that replaces a failing or damaged heart with a healthy heart from a deceased donor. This operation is often considered for patients with severe heart conditions, such as heart failure or coronary artery disease, when other treatments have not been effective. The goal is to improve the patient's quality of life and increase their chances of survival. Before the transplant, patients undergo thorough evaluations to determine their eligibility. Once a suitable donor heart is found, the surgery is performed, and the patient will need to take medications to prevent organ rejection. With proper care, many recipients can lead active and fulfilling lives after the procedure.
