Mrs. Sujatha’s family was told that the best chance of getting well again was to undergo a heart

A historic feat for Rela Hospital. A large team of heart transplant experts and the cardiac specialist team from Rela KIMS Heart and Lung Transplant Institute (including surgeons, anaesthetists, perfusionists and nurses), gave a cheerful send-off to their 1st heart transplant patient. The recipient, Mrs. Sujatha, a 36-year-old housewife got a new lease of life with the heart donated by a brain-dead youth, flown from Madurai to Chennai in a record time of 45-minutes.
