Working in partnership
with cardiologists at Abbott Northwestern and the
Minneapolis Heart institute, our staff is dedicated
to your recovery … heart and soul.
Our Cardiology
specialists are renowned for an integrated approach to
medical care. This approach involves the full range of
cardiovascular specialties, working together toward
excellence in all areas of heart disease prevention and
management.
Hutchinson Community
Hospital is designated as a "Level One Heart
Attack" facility.
Cardiology services
include:
-
Holter
Monitoring
Holter monitoring is a continuous recording of your
heart rhythm, usually for 24 to 48 hours, while you
go about your usual daily activities. It is
especially useful in diagnosing abnormal heart
rhythms, or arrhythmias.
-
Pacemaker and
ICD Followup Program for individuals with
abnormalities in their cardiac electrical system.
-
Hutchinson Area
Health Care is part of the Acute Aortic
Dissection Program at Abbott Northwestern, where
specialists from several disciplines collaborate to
provide the most advanced care possible.
-
Level One Heart
Attack Program
Research shows that patients with certain types of
heart attacks are much more likely to recover fully
if treated within 90 minutes. This includes a
treatment known as percutaneous coronary
intervention, or coronary angioplasty, which
requires a catheterization lab staffed by highly
skilled physicians and clinicians.
The treatment goal is to direct angioplasty/stenting
within 90 minutes from the time patients arrive at
the emergency room at Hutchinson Community Hospital
to balloon inflation at the Abbott Northwestern
catheterization lab.
-
Cardiac
Rehabilitation
Our Cardiac Rehabilitation program is a medically
supervised program of exercise and education
to help you recover after a heart attack, from other
forms of heart disease or after surgery to treat
heart disease. Cardiac rehabilitation programs
significantly increase your chances of survival.
