The philosophy of this division is that clinical research is intimately linked to excellence in clinical care.
Clinical trial delivers innovation in cardiovascular medical and device management through dynamic team of practitioners. With cardiovascular disease dominating the cause of mortality and mobility in this regional and US overall, clinical trials evaluate therapies for heart failure, coronary disease and rhythm disorders. It allows clinicians and patients to access evidence based cardiovascular care and device management.
