LAHORE, Feb 26 (APP):In line with the vision of Chief Minister Punjab Maryam Nawaz Sharif to expand quality healthcare facilities, relief is now being provided to heart patients at the Nawaz Sharif Cardiac Center in Samli Marri, as the facility has begun performing advanced procedures.
According to a spokesperson of the Health Department on Thursday, the first two successful surgeries have been completed at the Nawaz Sharif Cardiac Center, Samli. A team of expert surgeons from the Rawalpindi Institute of Cardiology (RIC) is providing full support for the surgeries being conducted at the center.
The spokesperson said these successful procedures were made possible through the professional expertise and guidance of the RIC team, reflecting strong collaboration between the two institutions. This achievement marks an important milestone, demonstrating that the cardiac center is now operational and making tangible progress toward providing state-of-the-art medical care.
The first patient has been successfully extubated and has come out of anesthesia, and his condition is reported to be satisfactory. Doctors and medical staff are closely monitoring both patients to ensure the highest standard of post-operative care.
Health officials described the development as a major positive step in the provincial health sector, noting that the facility will significantly improve access to quality cardiac treatment for people living in the region and surrounding areas.
