Leading the Way in Research
The Advanced Heart Disease Program offers a variety of clinical trials for patients. The Program is pioneering efforts in a number of areas, including:
Implantable hemodynamic monitors that allow patients to transmit cardiac information from home to physicians for adjustment of therapies;
New therapies to improve kidney function in the setting of heart disease;
Intermittent outpatient infusions of vasoactive medications;
Percutaneous mitral valve repair;
Cell therapy to repair injured heart tissue;
New therapies that may allow valve repair without surgery;
Innovative trials and screening for AHD;
Ongoing trials for mechanical circulatory support (VAD).
Today, there are more options available to treat advanced heart disease and failure than ever before. The Advanced Heart Disease Program at BWH specializes in these conditions and can provide the most advanced state-of-the-art evaluation and treatment methods.
