Cardiovascular program at Children’s Minnesota recognized as a great heart program |
|
|
Children’s Minnesota’s cardiovascular program provides comprehensive pediatric cardiovascular services – from routine care to advanced cardiac surgeries, from before birth and into adulthood. Services that set the program apart include:
|
-
A pediatric heart failure and heart transplant program certified through the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.
- The first lab in the Upper Midwest that is exclusively for pediatric electrophysiology studies.
-
A single ventricle home monitoring program that allows babies born with a single ventricle defect to be discharged after their first surgery. The family is sent home with equipment including a baby scale, pulse oximeter and iPad to enter information that the care team can see in real-time – meaning the baby is under expert care from the comfort of the family’s home.
