Hollywood Private Hospital launches a new cardiothoracic service
November 03, 2020
Hollywood Private Hospital brings Ramsay Health Care’s 25 years of experience in cardiothoracic surgery to Perth with a new service.
The multi-million-dollar, purpose-built theatre was unveiled in October and has already started performing life-saving bypass and valve replacement surgeries.
Hollywood Private Hospital Chief Executive Officer, Peter Mott, said this is the latest service that moves Hollywood towards delivering a comprehensive facility for heart health, which will be completed when the new emergency department opens next year.
“The new theatre will provide a vital service to those who present at the emergency department with symptoms and are then referred to a cardiothoracic surgeon,” Mr Mott said.
The facility also boasts the latest technology, including the HemoSphere advanced cardiac monitoring system and theMedistimMiraQ Cardiac – an advanced ultrasound device that is used during surgery. The cardiothoracic service also uses the ClotPro which rapidly analyses patients’ blood to ensure they receive the best treatment in the timeliest fashion.
This exciting new service for Hollywood will mean patients from around the state can be treated for all their cardiac needs at one place – taking the total number of hospitals offering this service around Australia to 10.
