The cardiac implant is placed via a mid line entry. When the operation is finished the patient has to stay in post-op for at least 4 hours. (TNG: "Samaritan Snare" ) In 2365, Picard needed to have it replaced for maintenance reasons, so he traveled to Starbase 515, not wanting the crew to know by having the operation performed aboard the USS Enterprise-D, despite the fact that Doctor Pulaski was more than capable of performing the surgery. After a complication, she was required to perform the surgery anyway. (TNG: "Samaritan Snare" ) In 2374, Ishka, the mother of Quark and Rom received an artificial heart after suffering a heart attack. (DS9: "Profit and Lace") In the non-canon DS9 novel Warpath, Kira Nerys receives an artificial heart after being attacked by Taran'atar.
