| The Dean & St. Mary's Cardiac Center gives viewers the opportunity to view a live heart procedure. Viewers will get to observe a live cardiac catheterization, featuring Drs. John Phelan, Alan Singer, Daniel Danahy and Robert Tancredi, as well as a possible angioplasty and stent placement. The program will also include a taped dramatization of a Level One Heart Attack scenario, illustrating the roles of EMTs and hospital staff in getting heart attack patients to the cath lab as quickly and efficiently as possible. Throughout the program, our team of cardiologists will explain the procedure and decisions being made, and answer viewer questions.
Dean & St. Mary's Cardiac Center
The Dean & St. Mary's Cardiac Center is the most experienced cardiac team in southern Wisconsin, and was the local leader in developing cardiac catheterization into an outpatient procedure. In 2006, they introduced the Level One Heart Attack Program, to improve the speed and quality of care given to heart attack victims throughout the region. St. Mary's was the first hospital in Madison with the revolutionary new 64-slice CT (computed tomography) scanner, which allows doctors to capture detailed images of the heart and arteries in seconds, without any invasive procedures and with no recovery time. |
