The '''bionic heart''' is an [[artificial body part]] that replaces the [[heart]] and improves [[blood pumping]], giving a small boost to a wide range of stats and tasks.
 
 
== Acquisition ==
 
Bionic hearts can be crafted at a [[{{P|Production Facility 1}}]] once the [[Research#{{P|Required Research}}|{{P|Required Research}}]] research project has been completed. They require {{Required Resources}}, {{Ticks|{{P|Work To Make}}}} of work, and a [[{{P|Skill 1}}]] skill of {{P|Skill 1 Level}}.
 
 
They can also be found in [[ancient shrine]]s, offered as a [[quest]] reward, or [[Trade|bought]] from exotic traders, [[Empire]] traders, and at [[Outlander]] [[faction base]]s.
 
 
== Summary ==
 
The bionic heart replaces an organic heart and has a part efficiency of 125%, which improves [[blood pumping]] by {{+|25%}}. This increases the [[Rest Rate Multiplier]] by about {{+|8%}}, and [[Moving]] by {{Good|x105%}}. The Moving boost is a multiplier, rather than added on, so it further improves other movement increases. For example, 125% Moving, reached with 2 [[bionic leg]]s, will be increased to 131% (125% * 1.05) rather than 130% (125% + 5%). Moving, in turn, affects the following [[stats]]: {{#ask: [[Moving Importance::+]]}}. For further details, see those pages.
 
 
Artificial hearts are also immune to [[heart attack]]s and [[artery blockage]]s, preventing future cases and curing existing ones.
 
 
By installing a bionic heart, the pawn's natural [[heart]], if perfectly healthy, is harvested without a penalty. This organic heart can then be sold or stored for later use.
 
 
=== Installation ===
 
Installing the part requires {{Ticks|2500}} of work, 2x medicine of [[Herbal medicine|herbal]] quality or better, and a [[Skills#Medical|Medical skill]] of 5.
 
 
Removing the part requires {{ticks|2000}} of work, 1x medicine of [[Herbal medicine|herbal]] quality or better, and has no [[Skills#Medical|Medical skill]] requirements.
 
 
If the operation fails, the part will be destroyed.
 
 
== Analysis ==
 
Like [[bionic stomach]]s, bionic hearts are of less obvious importance than [[bionic leg]]s, [[bionic arm|arms]] or [[Bionic eye|eyes]] due to its less impactful stat boosts. Even though the bonuses are small, faster sleep and movement help improve the productivity of a colonist. The movement speed in particular can make a difference when fleeing animals or mechanoids, and can be installed after legs. The bionic heart also stops and prevents [[heart attack]]s, which makes it very useful for [[wake-up]] users or old people, especially if they already have an artery blockage.
 
 
Unlike the [[prosthetic heart]] or a natural, biological heart, there is not a 25% chance of instant death in the event of failed installation. This makes it significantly safer to install. It also only requires a medical skill of 5 compared to the organic heart's 8. The prosthetic is lower still, requiring only 4.
 
 
Installing a bionic heart on a healthy patient grants a [[Heart|natural heart]], worth {{Icon Small|silver|16|1200}}. This is more than the bionic heart, worth {{Icon Small|silver|16|1030}}. This means the surgery is theoretically profitable. Along with [[Detoxifier_lung|Detoxifier lungs]]{{BiotechIcon}}, Bionic hearts are the only artificial part which has a lower market value than their natural counterpart while also being strictly superior to their natural counterpart.
 
  
== Version history ==
+
Bionic hearts are an organ replacement added in beta 19. They have 120% efficiency, improving blood pumping and hence slightly increasing moving as well.
* [[Version/0.19.2009|0.19.2009]] - Added.
