Surgical treatment for Heart Failure – Debunk the Myths

Surgical treatment for heart failure, such as ventricular assist devices (VADs) or heart transplantation, is often misunderstood. Many believe it's a last resort, but these surgeries can significantly improve survival and quality of life when performed early in the disease progression. Another myth is that only older patients qualify, but younger candidates often benefit as well. It's also a misconception that surgery completely eliminates the need for medication; post-surgery, patients still require careful management. Lastly, these procedures have advanced considerably, making them safer and more accessible than commonly believed.
