Description

A heart transplant, or a cardiac transplant, is a surgical transplant procedure performed on patients with end-stage heart failure or severe coronary artery disease when other medical or surgical treatments have failed. Organ donors may be doing more than just saving lives. They may be giving a new life and new personality to organ transplant recipients . Personality is defined as the set of habitual behaviors, cognitions and emotional patterns that evolve from biological and environmental factors.[1] While there is no generally agreed upon definition of personality, most theories focus on motivation and psychological interactions with one's environment . So, in this report the discussion will be about the effect of heart transplantation on personality
