What is Heart Transplant?

A heart transplant is performed if the patient has a serious heart disease and can no longer recover with medical treatment. Examinations and tests are done before a heart transplant. The patient is then placed on the waiting list. Once a donor heart is ready, the transplant coordinator will call you to come to the hospital for a transplant evaluation. Transplant surgery is performed and the life-long health status of the patient is monitored.

What is Cardiology?

Cardiology is the branch of science that examines diseases related to the heart and circulatory system. Cardiology, which was a sub-branch of the internal medicine department, is now a separate department. A doctor with medical education gets the title of cardiologist by making his specialty in cardiology. People who have symptoms such as fatigue, cyanosis, palpitations, fainting, night urination, edema, shortness of breath, chest pain are treated in the cardiology department. The heart's main task is to pump blood around the body. If the heart cannot pump enough blood that the body needs for various reasons, heart failure occurs. Cardiology Ideals with many diseases such as hear failure, hypertension, ischemic heart diseases, atherosclerotic coronary artery disease and acute coronary syndrome.
