The country’s first-ever mechanical heart transplant was carried out at the National Institute of Cardio Vascular Diseases (NICVD) on Monday (July 9).

Nafeesa Begum, 62, is the first patient to undergo this complicated surgery and receive a mechanical heart aid. It is hoped that this facility will help hundreds of people in need.
