It is our distinct honor to share with you the second edition of the<br />
Cardiac Cath Lab Clinical Outcomes Report. This report demonstrates<br />
the truly outstanding caliber of patient care and clinical research<br />
taking place daily at <strong>Mount</strong> <strong>Sinai</strong> Medical Center. It has been<br />
enormously gratifying to participate in the growth of <strong>Mount</strong> <strong>Sinai</strong><br />
from a well-respected institution primarily serving the New York<br />
metropolitan area into one of the nation’s leading academic<br />
medical centers that draws patients from around the world.<br />
The catheterization laboratory at <strong>Mount</strong> <strong>Sinai</strong> is one of the many<br />
centers of excellence that have distinguished <strong>Mount</strong> <strong>Sinai</strong> in recent<br />
years. It stands at the forefront of clinical quality and research<br />
innovation so that our patients benefit from the most advanced<br />
treatments. Cardiovascular interventions that seemed unimaginable<br />
even five years ago are now possible at <strong>Mount</strong> <strong>Sinai</strong>.<br />
The cath lab is renowned for its world-class team of physicians and<br />
surgeons. Their unparalleled skill and expertise allow <strong>Mount</strong> <strong>Sinai</strong><br />
to treat virtually every facet of cardiovascular disease at any hour<br />
of the day or night. A set of carefully tested and practiced protocols<br />
guides the delivery of care from the moment a patient enters the<br />
Medical Center until they are ready to return home.<br />
An unwavering commitment to excellence and a dedication to<br />
providing superior outcomes for our patients serve as the guiding<br />
principles in everything we do at <strong>Mount</strong> <strong>Sinai</strong>. Our cath lab staff<br />
embody these values while tackling the most complex cases of<br />
cardiovascular disease. Patients turned away by other institutions<br />
that lack the capacity for delivering the most advanced therapies<br />
come to <strong>Mount</strong> <strong>Sinai</strong>. We are honored by their choice.<br />
We hope you find this edition of the Cardiac Cath Lab Clinical<br />
Outcomes Report informative, and we extend our most sincere<br />
welcome to <strong>Mount</strong> <strong>Sinai</strong>.<br />
