Patients suffering from heart failure have a variety
of options for treatments offered by Loyola. In addition
to lifestyle modifications
and medications, these
include:
Hemodynamic Monitoring
Non-invasive hemodynamic monitoring now is available
to help monitor the heart. This type of monitoring,
previously only available by inserting a catheter in
the veins leading to the right side of your heart, helps
the team monitor the results of medication changes and
helps keep patients out of the hospital unless absolutely
necessary.
Ventricular Assist Devices (VADs)
Loyola cardiovascular surgeons are highly skilled at
implanting VADs as a bridge to transplantation or a
bridge to recovery. As a premier cardiovascular center,
Loyola participates in numerous clinical research trials.
If you would like to make an appointment or need assistance
