The Heart Center at Nationwide Children’s Hospital combines all clinical and research disciplines under one umbrella to meet our mission: to improve outcomes by discovering the causes of heart disease and develop novel therapies for our patients, focusing on each as an individual and providing the state-of-the-art care that all patients deserve, regardless of age. We support the mission of Nationwide Children’s to provide our services in a safe environment focused on family-centered care.
The Cardiothoracic Surgery Program at Nationwide Children’s Hospital is dedicated to the treatment of all patients, from fetus to adulthood, with congenital heart defects ranging from the most straightforward to the extremely complex. As part of The Heart Center, we offer a comprehensive approach to heart care that is based on a multidisciplinary team model, which enables our team to constantly monitor quality of care and patient safety pre- and post-surgery to assure the best possible outcomes.
The PROMISE Program Reduces Cardiac Arrests in High-Risk Patients
Faculty within The Heart Center at Nationwide Children’s recently initiated proactive risk mitigation strategies to reduce post-procedural cardiac arrests in high-risk congenital heart patients. In a new paper, the team used quality improvement methodology to show that their efforts resulted in fewer post-procedure cardiac arrests which was associated with a decrease in overall and post-procedural length of stay.
The Cardiology Fellowship offers state-of-the-art, innovative care of pediatric and adult congenital patients, including clinical, translational and basic science research while working directly with leading faculty physicians.
