ISO 9001, ISO 1400 certificates are given to American Heart of Poland for quality medical service.

The Cardiac Surgery and Cardiovascular Departments were awarded “Hospital without pain” certificate for quality postoperative service.

Prof. Pavel Bushman is a co-founder and chairman of the American Heart of Poland Group. The Professor has practiced since 1991. Prof. Pavel Bushman has studied additionally in Germany, Great Britain, and the USA. He developed innovative treatment methods for treatment of myocardial infarction.

Polish cardiologists have participated in the development of accurate catheterized technologies of treatment for over 15 years. Due to them, doctors remove blood splashes from the cerebral artery after a brain hemorrhage.

Specialists apply innovative methods for the examination of the blood circulatory system. A laboratory of hemodynamics is equipped with the angiograph. So, cardiac surgeons can perform angioplasty - enlargement of the artery.

Patients who have a myocardial infarction, heart failure or arrhythmia, can attend “Ustron” spa-resort after hospitalization. The specialists of the Center develop an individual program of healing for each patient.

American Heart of Poland has own Research and Development Center. There is a laboratory where tissues and stem cells are grown. It allows performing research for reconstruction of the heart and vessels. Specialists also try to limit the development of the central nervous system damages caused by ischemia with stem cells.

Doctors conduct a repair of a cardiac valve using 3D printing technology. Thanks to this, a surgeon can examine the heart in details and choose right size of a catheter.

Specialists developed a method which allows saving legs of people with diabetes and atherosclerosis. A moving catheter is applied. It cuts out the plaques inside the vessels. Patients can be discharged in a few hours after the procedure.
