im not bothered about any logic. without iccha this crap will end. just wait n watch.

i have been a loyal follower of this show since 2009. anyone who has watched since the beginning will know that uttaran is about the life sketch of iccha. it shows the journey of iccha from slums to a thakur house and finding love in veer and then at bundela house.

tappu added colors n life to the show. she made it interesting to watch n pulled the viewers with her amazing acting

but the story is centered around iccha only. once she's dead uttaran will end very soon.
mark my words no matter who comes know uttaran cant survive w/o iccha. even normal viewers will not accept such a death of iccha.

Life Expectancy

There are a number of factors that influence life expectancy after heart transplant. Some of these factors are as follows:
Age
Gender
Patient compliance, overall health of the patient
Immunological match of donor to recipient
Availability of advanced technology and expert medical advice
However, according to American Heart Association, as of June 5, 2009,
The one-year survival rate was 88% for males and 77.2% percent for females.
The three-year survival rate was about 79.3% percent for males and 77.2% percent for females.
The five-year survival rate was 73.1% percent for males and 67.4% percent for females.
Way back in the year two thousand, The Independent covered a story about a heart transplant survivor, in which it said that a 73-year-old American from Michigan had lived 24 years after the surgery.
Thus, in the best of circumstances, heart transplant life span can be quite longer.

Success Rate

The human heart transplantation success rate is related to the risk factors before transplantation. However, on an average, the success rate is close to 95% in most centers. The risks are heightened if:
The patient is over 60 years of age.
Is on a ventilator.
Has an elevated panel reactive antibody level.
Has had a previous heart transplant.
Has high pressures in the pulmonary (lung) blood vessels.
However, even in such cases, there are 95% or higher chances of being initially successful. The first 30 days are crucial and if a patient lives through those, there is close to 90% chance that he/she will be alive at the end of the first year.

Risks Involved

Our immune system protects us from potentially harmful substances. A 'foreign' organ and tissue in the body would almost always trigger an immune response, which would result in the destruction of the foreign tissue. In order to prevent this from happening, a patient is given strong immunosuppressive drugs. However, one of the major risks of heart transplant remains rejection of the donor heart by the body. Every 3 to 4 months after an organ transplant, a sample (biopsy) of the heart tissue is tested and an echocardiography, electrocardiography (ECG, EKG), or blood tests are also performed to check for rejection.

While immunosuppressant drugs are required to suppress your immune system so that it does not reject the donor heart, these drugs may have side effects, including an increased risk of infections and cancer. Steroids given may cause side effects such as infections, ulcers or bone loss.

Heart transplant is usually only considered when all other avenues have been exhausted. Even though it is not really a choice, people are often reluctant to consider it because of the cost and wait involved. However, it is also an option that offers hope. After a heart transplant, life expectancy is extended and usually a better quality of life is also achieved.

I can just say one thing, what we all see here in this heart transplantation is logic and science, but in UT there is no such things. So seeing logic or reasons is not to be expected...


And heart transplantation is not a big deal in nowaday's technology they even use artificial hearts now. so working and all is never a problem. so no prob...

heart is placed at the center but it is a bit tillted towards left and when the doctors give it a a hands press they do it on the center of the chest not on left

beatings are heard on the left bcoz it is almost located on the bottom tip of the heart but majority part of the heart is located at the center of the chest but slightly towards left side

Following is the exact medical defination

okay, lets consider that there are 5 regions in the chest (these are made up regions and are in noway, shape or form actually medical regions of the body) outer left, inner left, centre, inner right and outer right. Essentially, the regions that the heart takes up is the centre and inner left regions. So it is found in the centre, but skewed more to the left, and this is why the left lung is smaller then the right lung, because the heart, although in the centre, is taking up space towards the left.

EDIT: the reason why doctors listen to the heart in the lower left area of the chest is because that is where the heart is the most exposed and easiest to be heard, otherwise it's covered by the sternum, ribs and lungs. That most exposed area is where the apex (or point) of the heart is... Sooo if you maybe imagine a love heart (about the size of your fist) in the centre of the chest BUT the love heart is titled and the point on the bottom of the love heart is to the left, then that's kinda wat it's like.

he heart is situated in the mediastinum, which is a space between the lungs in the approximate center of your chest behind your breastbone. The heart is actually located more to the left, though, and so the reason you'll feel it beat harder on the left side is because that's where it is.

cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

it is also done by pressing the chest

here is the picture






Kneel by the victim's side and place the heel of one hand on the breast plate (midway between the nipples), locating the heel of your other hand on top of the first. Lock your elbows and press from your shoulders. Compress the chest with a continuous series of rapid compressions, about 100 per minute. Press down at least two inches, then fully release the chest. Repeat quickly. Continue until emergency help arrives.

the heel of the hand is always on the chest to thump it

tell this to rupali guha

yes more research work is going on about artificail heart transplant heart is being taken form animals also

but never ever medical science will alow death of a living person in order to donate it to somebody else to save their lives

@ disa i completely understand u r situation!
And i m not concerned about logic 4rm uttaran ! Since topic was on medicine and some info which was not entirely correct (as they are directly posted from online site which are simplified for general population) was posted so i decided to share some info from my Books and since i had seen dissection cadaver thought of posting my view on anatomy and heart transplant.

Regarding story it is new story disha ut is over wid iccha
just like season2

@ Disha That is surprising news to me that one particular book is right only and the entire internet is wrong šŸ˜• anyway common people like me first and always šŸ˜† consult internet for basic and quick info and as I said not interested in research work needed some BASIC FACTS ONLY through interent which are given by doctors majorly and medical practitioners not for students but for general people like u n me 😃 šŸ˜† šŸ˜†

and Ofcourse that is also too much for Rupali and team as they have no brains to understand the logic of anything 🤣 🤣
