CIMS Cardiac Surgery is one of the best and patient safety centric hospital in Ahmedabad, India.

Let us understand normal blood circulation in our body. The human heart has four chambers; two on the right side and two on the left side. Right heart chambers receive used or deoxygenated blood from the body and send it to the lungs. Oxygen comes in and carbon dioxide goes out in the lungs hence blood become pure or oxygenated. This pureblood comes in left chambers and they send it to the whole body through Aorta and its branches. Our body needs this oxygen to perform various activities. This deoxygenated blood returns back to the right chambers and thus circulation of blood occurs into the heart, lungs and body.

This gentleman underwent heart surgery twice and again acquired a problem with his Aortic heart valve. He needed Aortic Valve Replacement which was too risky as we had to operate for the third time. We carefully investigated and explained all risk involved with surgery. Mechanical valve was put in aortic position. patient recover in 5 days without any complications.

Two Hearts beat together for a Man’s Survival
Ahmedabad: Life hasn’t been the same for kalpesh since March, 2017. Few months before his birthday, a seemingly healthy young man of 23, Kalpesh, all of a sudden suffered from a massive heart failure which rendered his heart with a working capacity of only 15%.
A diamond factory worker, Kalpesh and his family were incapable of affording the humongous bills of transplant. That is when they got in touch with Dr Dhaval Naik, a well-known cardiac surgeon at CIMS Hospital Ahmedabad. It was his detailed counsel that gave the patient and his family confidence of full recovery.
The path to recovery would have been rockier if not for Donatelife foundation, who counselled the family of a young man slain in an accident to donate his organs. The Surat boy’s heart was a perfect match for Kalpesh. The team of Donatelife made its way from Surat to Ahmedabad within 80 mins for him who was admitted in CIMS Hospital ICU.
However, any success story is incomplete without hurdles and defeating those obstacles with poise. This new heart didn’t immediately adapt to the new body and wasn’t functioning. So specialist's team put him on an artificial heart, named ECMO. This machine heart was placed in the body to perform tasks till the new heart gets adopted. Dr Dhaval Naik, Dr Dhiren Shah and their team, worked day and night relentlessly to make this operation successful. Finally, after gruelling six days, the heart and body became in-sync to his recovery. His human-made heart was removed, and thus he began his new life with a new centre on June 2, 2017.
Speaking on the success of the heart transplant, Dr Dhaval Naik said, “Kalpesh celebrated his birthday in ICU, hoping new birthday would arrive with the joy of new heart. It was sad to see a promising young man fighting for his life. We decided to pour all our strength to save him. The heart of the brain dead Surat man was our ray of hope. However, when it immediately didn’t adapt to the body, we decided to wait instead of frightening in this situation. Patient’s will power and co-doctors and staff’s efforts paid off when six days later, the new heart started beating. For a doctor, this was the best birthday gift I could have asked for!”
Its been three years since the transplant and Kalpesh is leading a happy and healthy life. He says it owes it all to be Dr Dhaval Naik, Dr Dhiren Shah and their skilled squad at CIMS Hospital Ahmedabad.

Whenever we get a heart from another city, it's always tricky to organise organ transport. In this video, Mr Rajat Sharma narrates a wonderful news when we transported organs from Jamnagar to Ahmedabad using two flights and the help of Jamnagar collector office and Naval airforce.
