Kunta Operation

Kunta surgery is one of the methods of providing first aid for poisoning with cardiac glycosides in order to restore or maintain the correct heart rhythm.

Kunta surgery is performed by a doctor, paramedic or during resuscitation classes in medical institutions, as well as at home, using homemade devices from scrap materials, for example, an umbrella, tweezers or a pen.

The main goal of kunta surgery is to expel or stabilize acidotic non-electrolytic fluid when cardiac cells are dehydrated and restore the homeostasis of these cells. This is achieved by injecting large volumes of potassium chloride (potassium chloride) into the ventricles of the heart, manually or using special devices. It is important to note that this operation should only be performed by medical professionals and under the supervision of specialists, as incorrect execution of the procedure can lead to serious complications.

It is also worth noting that kunta surgery is used only with medical care and in a hospital setting. It is impossible to carry out such an operation on your own at home, and an attempt can be dangerous for the patient’s life. If you suspect someone you know is having a cardiac arrest, or if you are near an episode and think resuscitation is required, you should call an ambulance.
