Craig Lewis, a man from Texas was admitted to the Texas Heart Institute as he was suffering from a deadly disease named amyloidosis. Amyloidosis is an extremely rare disease as less than 10 lakh people from all over the world report about it. In this situation, a thick sticky protein layer starts to build upon the essential body organs such as the kidney, heart, and liver. Till now there is no cure known for the disease. The 55-year-old man reported the trouble in March 2011. His condition was so critical that even a pacemaker could not save him at that point.
The doctors stated that he had only 12 hours to live. But his wife Linda took him to Dr. Cohn, which later bought out a revolutionary invention to the world.
Dr. Billy Cohn is a senior surgeon at the Texas Heart Institute. He has spent a large part of his life developing technologies to substitute or repair the human heart. Dr. Cohn along with Dr. Bud Frazier made a machine that they call a ‘continuous flow’. The machine found its roots in the Left Ventricle Assist Device (LVAD). ‘Continuous flow’ was efficient to keep a human alive without a pulse and also without a heartbeat. It was an extraordinary invention by the doctors.
