The wards provide 24-hour shifts for patients with various forms of myocardial infarction, enabling their fast and efficient treatment with percutaneous heart catheterisation, the so-called coronary angioplasty. Locations of the wards allow to shorten the time required to transport patients for surgical therapy, which is of basic significance for the results related with treatment of this dangerous disease.
The departments also offer their possibilities to patients from all over Poland, admitted according to the schedule of diagnostic procedures - such as coronarography and angiography, and of therapeutic procedures, such as coronary artery angioplasty and circumflex artery angioplasty, percutaneous mitral valvuloplasty procedures, non-operative treatment of thoracic aorta aneurysm by means of implementing stentgrafts, and implantation of heart stimulating sets, or implantable cardioverter-defibrillators.
The Board of American Heart of Poland also cared about the prophylactic activity related with diseases of the cardiovascular system, as it launched the following programmes in Hotel Wilga in Ustroń: educational-therapeutical programme for people with cardiac diseases and patients after cardiologic events, as well as recreational-therapeutic programme, implementing pro-healthy education within the scope of cardiologic diseases. Vacation for health is a combination of recreation, professional therapy, health education and good rest in picturesque surroundings of Silesian Beskid.
Since its establishment the American Heart of Poland has become an important medical entity treating cardio-vascular disorders. In 2009 12643 patients have trusted us, and we have performed 6880 coronary angioplasty procedures with stent implantation, next to 1101 procedures on circumflex arteries - statistics.
The strength of the American Heart of Poland lies in high class specialists, both the ones working full-time in local departments, and in physicians visiting our centres, both the ones from Poland and from abroad.
Professor Paweł Buszman, MD, PhD is the person supervising the substantial activity within all of these units, while cardiologic consultations are controlled by Professor Andrzej Bochenek, MD, and PhD.
The procedures offered by our clinics are realized within the scope of contracts covered by agreement with National Health Fund, but they can also be paid for by private entities. After many years of activity, clinics of the American Heart of Poland have become widely known and appreciated clinical wards in Poland.
We do not offer emergency treatments. For actual emergencies please contact your local emergency response system.
