Nevada’s Congenital Heart Surgical Program is among the best in the United States. In fact, patients travel to Nevada for congenital heart surgery.
Please visit the Society of Thoracic Surgeons National Database link below to review program data by state. The “Overall” row indicates the total program data. The “# /Eligible” column indicates the number of cases. The lower the “Observed” percentage, the better the results. The expected percentage is 2.57% but we have achieved a significantly better rate of just 1.53%.
