New York City-based Northwell Health’s Long Island Jewish Medical Center has opened a $6 million cardiac combination laboratory.
The new lab integrates cardiac catheterization and electrophysiology capabilities, including services such as advanced cardiac imaging, angioplasty and stenting, Afib ablation, pacemaker and defibrillator implantation and same-day ambulatory cardiac interventions, according to an Oct. 20 system news release.
The lab will help address the 20% to 30% increase in patient volume the hospital has seen in the last year. It operates alongside three cardiac cath labs and two electrophysiology labs at the hospital.
At the Becker's 23rd Annual Spine, Orthopedic and Pain Management-Driven ASC + The Future of Spine Conference, taking place June 11-13 in Chicago, spine surgeons, orthopedic leaders and ASC executives will come together to explore minimally invasive techniques, ASC growth strategies and innovations shaping the future of outpatient spine care.
