Cleveland
Clinic heart surgery Affiliate Programs experienced another
successful year, providing outstanding surgical care close to home.
Two new clinical affiliations were established: Chester County
Hospital in West Chester, Pennsylvania, and the Swedish Heart
and Vascular Institute in Seattle, Washington. Overall, the
Affiliate Programs contributed 5,111 cases to Cleveland Clinic’s
total surgical volume—3,076 cardiac procedures, 1,337 thoracic
procedures, and 698 other procedures (vascular and pacemaker). Cleveland
Clinic and its Affiliate Programs have found that sharing standard
clinical protocols, quality management, and efficiencies in
administrative practice is mutually beneficial for the clinical
staff and patients at each respective hospital. |
