OPEN HEART SURGERY & CATH LAB - VIDEO

HYBRID OPERATION ROOM WITH CATH LAB

Vanderbilt University Medical Center hosted a live webcast from their state-of- the-art Hybrid OR/Cath Lab on September 29, 2005 at 4pm (CDT).

When John Byrne, M.D. joined Vanderbilt University Medical Center a year ago, he brought a novel idea that he hoped would impact the cardiovascular world, much like air bag safety equipment revolutionized the auto industry.

Called the Hybrid OR/Cath Lab, the state-of-the-art operating suite houses all the equipment and monitoring devices necessary to perform both open-heart surgeries like coronary bypass as well as percutaneous coronary interventions and procedures, including angioplasty and stenting.
