St.Vincent Indianapolis

The cardiovascular program at St.Vincent Indianapolis has long been known as one of the leading cardiovascular programs in the nation.

The St.Vincent Indianapolis cardiovascular program includes the Indiana Heart Institute, one of the Midwest's leading centers for cardiac care, rehabilitation and research. The institute includes 44 cardiologists from The Care Group and 22 cardiovascular surgeons from CorVasc, providing 15,000 medical procedures each year.

Other Important Facts about the Cardiovascular Program at St.Vincent include:

• St.Vincent Indianapolis has historically treated more heart attacks than any other single provider in Indiana according to Indiana Hospital and Health Association statewide reported data.
• St.Vincent Indianapolis has been the "most preferred provider for heart care" in Indiana and central Indiana for the past six consecutive years as noted in an annual independent consumer survey conducted by National Research Corporation (NRC)

Volume of procedures performed is an important consideration when selecting a heart care provider. According to recent research results published in the New England Journal of Medicine and reprinted or referenced by USA Today, the American Hospital Association and the Health Care Advisory Board, in-hospital mortality of patients who underwent primary angioplasty at high-volume hospitals has shown to be 28 percent lower than that of patients at low-volume hospitals.
