Research Pioneering the Future of Heart Care
Our researchers are at the forefront of cardiovascular medicine, developing advanced treatments and technologies to shape the future of heart care. We are dedicated to finding new and better ways to diagnose, treat and prevent heart disease.
Our clinicians are regularly invited to present their innovative research at leading conferences around the world, underscoring our role as pioneers in the field.
Key Areas of Research
- Improving heart failure treatment: We are testing new sensors and cardiac devices to better monitor and treat patients with heart failure. We are also studying new medications for a specific type of heart failure known as preserved ejection fraction.
- Managing high cholesterol: Our teams are investigating new cholesterol-lowering medications (antilipidemic agents) to help patients manage high cholesterol levels more effectively.
- Enhancing heart attack care: We are exploring several areas to improve outcomes for patients who have had a heart attack, including:
- The most effective blood transfusion strategies
- The benefits of a new class of medications (SGLT2 inhibitors)
- The use of temporary mechanical pumps to support the heart during emergency procedures
- Advancing treatment for older adults: We are working to identify the best and safest treatment strategies for older patients with significant coronary artery disease.
- Treating structural heart conditions: Our research includes studying the effectiveness of devices used to close a patent foramen ovale (PFO), a small hole in the heart.
- Innovating procedural safety: We are developing new devices to safely seal blood vessels after complex heart procedures that require large support equipment.
Through these groundbreaking studies, we are redefining what's possible in cardiovascular care. Discover how these advancements could improve your treatment and outcomes — both today and in the future.
