Cardiac Catheterization, Angiography and Interventional Catheterization
For the benefit of your child, we always seek to adopt or invent minimally-invasive techniques of interventional cardiology, angiography and cardiac catheterization. Our commitment to innovation has helped us reduce risk and trauma, safely shorten hospital stays and dramatically shorten recovery times for our young patients with certain heart conditions.
Some of our advanced interventional cardiology techniques include:
- Implanting stents safely through catheters in an 8-month-old infant — the youngest ever to undergo this procedure.
- Treating pulmonary regurgitation without surgery with the Harmony™ transcatheter pulmonary valve (TPV). Stanford Children’s Health is one of the first hospitals in the country to implement this new therapy for children.
- Using the latest catheter device solutions to treat premature infants with patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) who require intervention.
