Severe congenital heart disease. A state-of-the-art hybrid lab. Complex ablation success. Supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) paired with severe congenital heart disease poses a life-threatening situation. Using a complex procedure called a transbaffle puncture and advanced imaging capabilities made possible by the hospital's state-of-the-art hybrid lab, CHAM cardiologists successfully ablated SVT in a young child. Complex cardiac cases and a 95 percent success rate for catheter ablation – that's CHAM leading the way in clinical excellence. To read more about this case, visit www.cham.org/outcomes. The Children's Hospital at Montefiore is consistently recognized among the top hospitals nationally by U.S. News & World Report in areas including Neurology & Neurosurgery, Diabetes & Endocrinology, Nephrology and Orthopaedics. www.cham.org
