First let's close

the ventricular defect.

Then widen the pulmonary valve.

It has to work!

Tweezers.

36 degrees. After reperfusion.

- The patient is warm.

- Prepare to go out of ECC.

- Reducing cardiac output.

- How much?

1.5... 1.5 litres.

Gently.

Breathing.

Stop circulation.

What's wrong? What is it?

F***... we've got hypoxia.

Keep working. girl. More oxygen.

Zbyszek... let's go back to ECC.

Asystole, again.

She has to manage on her own.

- More adrenaline!

- I can increase it, but it won't help.

- Do it!

- It won't help.

Work with me, girl!

Keep working!

Are you crazy? She could get infected.

put on new ones!

The missus?

- Excuse me?

- Did you mess up or your missus?

God.

Then let it go.

I can't.

You can't force anyone to stay.

The heart won't listen.

We'll see about that.

I didn't...

I didn't make any mistakes.

There was no other way to do it.

I had to try.

Having diagnosed pulmonary atresia,

Why didn't you stop the operation?

There was no other option.

What would you have done?

You had a variety

of options to choose from.

For example?

If you had stopped. would the patient

have survived?

No.

What was

the direct cause of death?

Electromechanical dissociation

caused by end-stage

heart damage in this disease.

We didn't overcome

the vascular resistance

due to the underdeveloped

pulmonary vessels.

The heart didn't start beating,

after the defects have been removed.

You've convinced me.

- But not me.

- Come on...

It was too late for the surgery...

Dr Religa didn't make any mistakes.

He had to try.

That girl's life

must have been unbearable.

The smallest effort

could have killed her.

Doctor. thank you for coming

to the Ethics Committee.

There was...

one solution

that could have saved her.

Care to enlighten us?

A heart transplant.

You must be joking.

You'd be willing

to experiment on a child?

I don't know why you,

cardiologists, think that you're gods.

Do you know any other way

we could've saved her?

I repeat'.

we are investigating

a child's death.

That's right.

It was also my child... dear colleague.

Thank you.

Wait...just a second...

I have to go to Warsaw.

I won't be long.

If you go. I'll divorce you.

I have to.

I'll be back in the evening.

A very interesting case.

Let's go.

Professor!

- Good to see you're enjoying your holiday.

- I know.

We must launch

a heart transplant program.

Continue gentlemen. I'll catch up in a minute.

We've got the gear.

the people, the technology...

The British have positive results

with cyclosporine.

Let's do this!

- Cutting a beating heart out of...

- A body.

A human being.

It's ethically vague.

The world has no doubts.
