Understanding your care
Heart transplant for advanced heart failure
Heart transplant replaces a failing heart with a donated heart and is reserved for carefully selected people with advanced, irreversible heart disease when other treatment is no longer effective.
The process involves detailed evaluation, waiting-list and organ-allocation rules, surgery, intensive monitoring, rehabilitation, and lifelong rejection prevention.
