Three of these suites are dedicated to the interventional catheterization service, comprising two dedicated catheterization laboratories and an innovative combined catheterization/MRI suite. The fourth suite is a dedicated bi-plane electrophysiology laboratory that is fully equipped to support catheterization cases. Additionally, the clinical facility includes a state-of-the-art hybrid operating room. The HI is an internationally recognized academic center of excellence for Pediatric (congenital and acquired) and Adult Congenital Cardiac Care, and clinical and basic science research. The HI incorporates the CCHMC Divisions of Cardiology, Cardiothoracic Surgery, and Molecular Cardiovascular Biology. We provide the full range of cardiac services for our patients throughout their lifespan within a free-standing, not-for-profit tertiary care medical center in collaboration with the University of Cincinnati Medical Center.
