title: [Czech heart surgery in 1992].
abstract: A total of 163 operations in extracorporeal circulation per one million population (i.e., below 50% of the European average) were performed in the Czech Republic in 1992. While the most critical situation exists in the treatment of IHD, it is relatively favourable in the treatment of congenital heart defects. To improve the current state, it is imperative to recruit more nurses and to install better technology in medical facilities.
