First Successful Heart Defect Repair!

Medicine in History – Today, September 2

1. 1952 – First Successful Surgical Repair of a Heart Defect

On September 2, 1952, Drs. F. John Lewis and C. Walton Lillehei made medical history by performing the first successful operation to correct a cardiac shunt—often referred to as a “hole in the heart”—in a five-year-old girl. This pioneering surgery utilized the induced hypothermia technique, developed by Wilfred Gordon “Bill” Bigelow, marking a major breakthrough in open-heart surgery.

APPRECIATION FRIDAY | SO1EO5

SHINING A LIGHT ON NOMANTHOMBI & NOZIPHO JOHNSON.

BSc CM || MSc Public Health || MSc in HealthCare Mgt Fellow (Nozipho)

Meet the twin sisters Nomanthombi & Nozipho Johnson who are proud Medical Licentiates Practicing Medicine in Kabwe, Zambia.
Despite being miles away from home (Originally from South Africa), Zambia has become like home to them with wonderful experiences gotten from numerous interactions they have in their line of duty.
They describe the experiences as, ''eye opening to experience how Zambian practice is conducted. With love, care, empathy and humility".

The ladies serve as lecturers in clinical sciences when they are not attending to patients.

Asked about a message they would like to share with colleagues, the sisters urged fellow cadres to be compassionate and show empathy to people with different needs as they attend to them. They further added that, despite challenges being faced as MLs, we should always ask ourselves the most important question: Why did we start? - To make a difference, to help others and to be part of a profession that truly cares!

When they are not in the ward or in front of a class lecturing, Nomanthombi & Nozipho are seasoned bakers (Photos in the post). If you are in Kabwe, feel free to get in touch with them on +260962860110.
