− | + | Installing a prosthetic heart will instantly cure any [[artery blockage]]s and prevent [[heart attack]]s from any source, including [[drugs]]. It can thus be useful on old or drug-using pawns. However the decrease in blood pumping has a number of carry-on effects including a 4% reduction in [[Consciousness]], [[Manipulation]], [[Talking]], and [[Eating]] and a [[Move Speed]] reduction of 7.5%, the same as a prosthetic leg. Additionally, they require 6% more sleep due to the 94% [[Rest Rate Multiplier]]. The reduction in consciousness and manipulation mean than that almost all tasks will be completed slightly slower. The result is also a 20.3% reduction in a healthy pawn's character value. | |

− | + | Installing a prosthetic heart on a healthy patient will yield a normal [[Heart]]. Normal organ harvesting penalties apply when harvesting a heart in this way. However, it used to be possible to harvest better organs this way without killing them and without mood or reputation penalties. | |
− | + | On the plus side, prosthetic hearts provide a fairly cheap (25 steel, 4 components per heart) method of harvesting one of all harvestable body parts. Just remember to harvest the Liver last and that you cannot reclaim the heart from a lifeless corpse | |

− | + | While it does provide a buff to pawns with the Body modder [[trait]], its negative effects on healthy pawns means it should be passed over for other, less detrimental prostheses. | |

− | + | Installing the prosthetic heart requires a medicine skill of 4. If the installation surgery fails, there is a 25% chance that the patient dies. Thus, there is always at least a 0.5% chance of death when installing. | |
