Advanced Technology
The Mercy Regional Heart and Vascular Center provides comprehensive heart and vascular care—from state-of-the-art technology and surgery to the latest in medications, prevention programs and effective risk assessments.
These life-saving protocols lead the way in heart care in the Janesville area:
- Our Code STEMI program speeds care to our ER patients with heart attacks
- Our risk assessments, such as heart scans and heart health appraisals, tell you if lifestyle changes are needed to improve your health and future quality of life
- Our new dual-source, 64-slice CT scanner offers faster, safer, higher-quality scanning to detect heart and vascular disease.
- In spring of 2009, our cutting-edge cardiac catheterization lab opened to better serve our patients. Due to increased need, a second catheterization lab opens in the fall of 2011.
- Our Arctic Sun® patient cooling system provides better outcomes for heart attack victims. With Arctic Sun, the patient’s body temperature is cooled for 24 hours and then slowly re-warmed to prevent the irreversible brain damage that can happen after a heart attack.
