Sri Ramakrishna Hospital and the Rotary Club of Coimbatore Saicity joined hands to form a medical project called Gift of Life, and treat patients around the world with complex heart conditions free of cost.

Through this project, three children with a rare congenital heart condition were recently brought to Sri Ramakrishna Hospital from the Philippines.

Upon their arrival the children, they were immediately evaluated and their hearts' condition were analysed by Paediatric Cardiologist Dr. Devaprasath, and they required complex heart surgeries. 

Sri Ramakrishna Hospital’s Paediatric Cardiac Surgical team, headed by Dr. Vijay Sadasivam and Anaesthetist Dr. Narendra Menon, carried out the Procedure.

The children recovered within a week with no signs of any complications or post-operative concerns and were soon discharged after the final check-up; and were also ensured that they were in suitable condition to board the flight.
