Heart failure or congestive heart failure remains a major public health concern on the global scale. End-stage heart failure is a severe disease where the heart is unable to pump enough oxygen and nutrients to other tissues and organs of the body. When the lines of treatment of heart failure such as lifestyle adjustments, medical management, and device therapy fail, a patient may be deemed a candidate for heart transplantation. This article reviews the history of heart transplantation, complications post-heart transplantation, and nursing management considerations for the immediate period after heart transplant surgery.
心力衰竭或充血性心力衰竭仍然是全球范围内主要的公共卫生问题。终末期心力衰竭是一种严重疾病，心脏无法将足够的氧气和营养物质泵送到身体的其他组织和器官。当心力衰竭的治疗方法如生活方式调整、药物治疗和器械治疗失败时，患者可能被视为心脏移植的候选者。本文回顾了心脏移植的历史、心脏移植后的并发症以及心脏移植手术后即刻的护理管理要点。
