HEART AND VASCULAR RESEARCH

Cardiovascular disease continues to be the leading cause of death in the United States, but hope is on the horizon. Researchers are developing novel surgical and medical therapies that hold the promise of saving lives and improving patients’ quality of life at the time of surgery and for the months and years beyond. As a leader in cardiovascular healthcare, the Lynn Heart and Vascular Institute scientists are exploring a variety of methods — such as advanced medical devices and minimally invasive techniques — that could revolutionize cardiovascular surgery by bringing new and innovative therapies to our patients.

Our cardiovascular research initiatives are focused in a number of interdisciplinary areas .These include cardiothoracic and vascular surgery, electrophysiology and general cardiology. Our researchers, many who are also part of our clinical staff, are engaged in number of FDA approved clinical trials in collaboration with other academic institutions and select industry partners. Several of the studies are physician-initiated and are only available at Boca Raton Regional Hospital.

It is our commitment at the Office of Cardiovascular Clinical Research to offer our patients an opportunity to participate in a state-of-the-art clinical research.
