En marzo de 2016, Panam\u00e1 escribi\u00f3 una de las p\u00e1ginas m\u00e1s trascendentales de su historia m\u00e9dica al llevar a cabo con \u00e9xito el primer trasplante de coraz\u00f3n en el pa\u00eds.<\/span> Diez a\u00f1os despu\u00e9s de esta haza\u00f1a quir\u00fargica, Pac\u00edfica Salud (entonces Hospital Punta Pac\u00edfica) conmemora una d\u00e9cada de haber sido el escenario de este hist\u00f3rico procedimiento, reafirmando su liderazgo en la medicina de alta complejidad, la innovaci\u00f3n cardiovascular y el trabajo multidisciplinario que sigue transformando y salvando vidas en la regi\u00f3n.<\/p>\n

La hist\u00f3rica intervenci\u00f3n, que dur\u00f3 aproximadamente cinco horas y requiri\u00f3 m\u00e1s de dos a\u00f1os de rigurosa preparaci\u00f3n previa, uni\u00f3 los conocimientos de m\u00e1s de 40 profesionales de la salud.<\/span> Gracias a las instalaciones de \u00faltima generaci\u00f3n y a los quir\u00f3fanos equipados de Pac\u00edfica Salud, combinados con el talento de un destacado equipo m\u00e9dico interdisciplinario, la paciente Mar\u00eda Pitty pudo recibir una segunda oportunidad de vida.<\/p>\n<\/div>

<\/span><\/div>

A lo largo de estos 10 a\u00f1os, esta hito inicial abri\u00f3 las puertas al fortalecimiento de los programas de cirug\u00eda compleja e intervencionismo en el pa\u00eds:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • \n

    Infraestructura de Clase Mundial:<\/b> Pac\u00edfica Salud ha consolidado instalaciones equipadas con la m\u00e1s alta tecnolog\u00eda para procedimientos quir\u00fargicos de alta complejidad y unidades de cuidados intensivos especializadas.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    Excelencia e Integraci\u00f3n Multidisciplinaria:<\/b> La colaboraci\u00f3n entre cirujanos cardiovasculares, cardi\u00f3logos, anestesi\u00f3logos, intensivistas, enfermeros y personal de soporte t\u00e9cnico demostr\u00f3 que en Panam\u00e1 es posible ejecutar procedimientos de nivel internacional con est\u00e1ndares de seguridad del m\u00e1s alto nivel.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    Cultura de Donaci\u00f3n y Esperanza:<\/b> Este primer procedimiento marc\u00f3 un antecedente en la toma de conciencia sobre la donaci\u00f3n de \u00f3rganos en Panam\u00e1, convirtiendo un acto de inmensa generosidad en un legado de vida duradero.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Celebrar este d\u00e9cimo aniversario no solo es un homenaje al coraje de la paciente y al esfuerzo de cada profesional involucrado, sino tambi\u00e9n una renovaci\u00f3n del compromiso de Pac\u00edfica Salud con la vida, la investigaci\u00f3n y la excelencia en la atenci\u00f3n m\u00e9dica. A diez a\u00f1os del primer trasplante card\u00edaco, la instituci\u00f3n reafirma su visi\u00f3n de seguir superando fronteras en la medicina de vanguardia, brindando salud, innovaci\u00f3n y esperanza a toda la comunidad paname\u00f1a y latinoamericana.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":8794,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"content-type":"","rs_blank_template":"","rs_page_bg_color":"","slide_template_v7":"","inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8793","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-noticias"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n10 A\u00f1os del primer Trasplante de Coraz\u00f3n Realizado en Panam\u00e1 -
