Future Plans
Surgery for Atrial Fibrillation:
Atrial fibrillation [AF] is very commonly associated with valvular & coronary heart disease. We plan to address AF at the time of Open Heart Surgery for complete cure of the patient very soon.
Valve Bank [Homograft]:
We plan to harvest heart valves from human cadaveric donors after thoroughly fulfilling the legal aspects, to form a valve bank, which can be used for the benefit of the poor patient population needing heart valve replacement in our hospital.
State-of-the-Art Paediatric Cardiac Unit:
We are performing complex congenital cardiac surgeries regularly in our department at present. However, in near future we will have an integrated paediatric cardiac unit with HDU,OT & ITU dedicated exclusively to congenital cardiac surgery patients. The work is already in progress.
Cardiac Transplant Programme:
Though not a very easy goal, we dream of starting cardiac transplantation programme in this department in the years to come.
