explain in detail how to keep the heart beating while it is being transported for a transplant procedure.
Answers
Explanation:
The device is the TransMedics Organ Care System (OCS), often called the “heart in a box.” The machine, not much larger than a rolling suitcase, perfuses a warm, beating donor heart with oxygenated blood as it is being transported to the operating room.
Answer:
hey mate here is ur answer
Explanation:
A heart transplant is an operation in which a diseased, 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.
While a heart transplant is a major operation, your chance of survival is good with appropriate follow-up care.
Heart transplants are performed when other treatments for heart problems haven't worked, leading to heart failure. In adults, heart failure can be caused by:
A weakening of the heart muscle (cardiomyopathy)
Coronary artery disease
Heart valve disease
A heart problem you're born with (congenital heart defect)
Dangerous recurring abnormal heart rhythms (ventricular arrhythmias) not controlled by other treatments
Failure of a previous heart transplant
In children, heart failure is most often caused by either a congenital heart defect or cardiomyopathy.
Another organ transplant may be performed at the same time as a heart transplant (multiorgan transplant) in people with certain conditions at select medical centers.
