This is indeed great news for those awaiting a heart transplant. However, there's still plenty of room for C-Pulse, especially since it can potentially reverse heart failure and enable patients to keep their original heart.
C-Pulse is definitely preferable to a transplant, which is MAJOR surgery, followed by a lifetime of immune suppression therapy, and a ton of other meds.
Also this: "Victor Chang Institute Executive Director Professor Bob Graham told ABC, the new procedure could save up to 30% more people."
Thirty percent still leaves a lot of heart failure patients in need.
