Montreal Heart Institute Specialized Care
|
MHI's daily efforts to preserve
excellent patient care.
The Montreal Heart Institute is an
ultra-specialized heart centre in all areas of
cardiology. Not only do our patients benefit from the
latest scientific breakthroughs, they also receive
highly personalized care. From a routine
exam to a delicate procedure,
each case is treated with the utmost
importance.

At the MHI, the patient is our top priority. That's
why our staff efforts are geared toward reducing waiting times,
offering optimal patient monitoring before and after
hospitalizations, and making it easier for patients from the
entire Quebec health network to have access to state-of-the-art
technology.
Patient Care Services
The large influx of cases treated at the Institute -
over 50,000 patients per year - is what enables us to research
and develop exciting new technologies. As a result,
specialization has become one of our greatest strengths. Patients
treated in our specialized clinics receive optimal monitoring in
such areas as:
Upcoming Projects
The MHI plans to acquire
new hemodynamics and electrophysiology rooms, as
well as
four more surgical rooms, including one for
robotics-assisted operations. These new rooms will enable us to
treat more patients more quickly and more
effectively and to reduce potentially detrimental
waiting times.
Also in the works: a
new ambulatory centre aimed at consolidating
various patient services under one roof, i.e.: external clinics,
specialized care not requiring hospitalizations (arrhythmia
clinic, pain clinic, congenital cardiopathy clinic, etc.),
certain diagnostic tests and minor mini-surgeries. This
restructuring will
facilitate the treatment of patients and
optimize information sharing.
The bottom line: more patients treated, more lives
saved!
