00:00This is the first time in the UAE that a combined heart and lung transplant has been performed.

00:09The case we're discussing today is an Emirati lady who was born with a hole in her heart,

00:15what we call an atrial septal defect. Over the course of her life, this led to significant

00:20increase in blood pressure inside her lungs. Before her surgery, she was so sick that she

00:25could not leave the hospital and had to stay in the hospital for very aggressive medical management

00:31to keep her heart and her lungs strong enough while we were waiting for appropriate organs

00:38to do her transplant surgery. She underwent a very complex eight-hour heart and lung transplant.

00:45We have been able to bring multiple teams together at a very high level of experience

00:50and competence to do a very complex operation successfully.

00:57After that, as her new heart and lungs continue to get stronger, she has made brilliant recovery

01:03and is now home with her family. And if you look at her, you would not believe that she has had

01:08a complex heart and lung transplant. And the significance to Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi in

01:13terms of this achievement is that it demonstrates to the citizens of this country, the residents,

01:20the nationals, that we are able to provide them with this complex care at home.
