Heart Valve Project
Rheumatic heart disease is a very major heart illness in both young & adults in India. It afflicts millions of people specially in villages where hygiene is bad with poor socio- economic conditions. This disease manifests after 5 – 10 years of activity in the body as the damaged narrow or leaky heart valves which either needs to be repaired or replaced in order give new lease of life to patient. There are four valves in the heart and many a times more than one heart valve gets destroyed because of this disease and may require treatment.In India as majority of these patients belongs to poor socio-economy group they get neglected for various reasons before they could be offered treatment. They reach to heart specialist in very advanced stage of the disease. Open heart surgery for heart valve repair or replacement is an expansive proposition as cost of heart valve is very high ranging from Rs. 35,000/- to Rs. 60,000/- besides routine open heart surgery charges.
Overall it becomes almost impossible to get good treatment and operation for majority of these patients at private institution and there is very long waiting list at Govt. supported hospitals. Usually these poor patients die awaiting for their turn. At the same time it is also true that valve operations are life savers and brings new hope and sunshine to the family if the patient is the only earning member of the family. It also provides relief from miserable condition of heart failure from which these people suffer before operation. With these realities in background JHCF started with its HEART VALVE PROJECT Top

Cardiac Rehabilitation Project :
Heart attack is an unfortunate and frightening event in the life of the person who gets it. Fortunately many patients with heart attack recover very well and return to their normal activities. Similarly heart surgery also, is a major operation which transforms the life of a person. Success of surgery depends not only on doctors but also on patients who require good rehabilitation.
For a “ Better Tomorrow “ patients excellent rehabilitation program is essential. Following is the part of this project.
1] Cardiac recovery program – where healthy diet, exercise and gradual return to normally can be achieved.
2] Stress busting guidance and life style modification by yoga and stress management courses by experts.
3] Rehabilitation can not be completed unless patients return to suitable livelihood and earning. Support and guidance by foundation and other trusts is most desirable.
This is the future goal where all these activities will be provided with financial and residential support along with expert guidance.
