ACHIEVEMENTS Since our establishment in 1992, more than 1.5 million patients have come to us for care, out of which over 153,858 have been treated in our wards. During the same period, 51,921 surgeries have been performed, of which 36,263 were open-heart surgeries. 96,529 of our patients have also undergone interventional cardiology procedures since we began operations. We have also established a sound record in children’s cardiac medicine with 16,767 paediatric cardiothoracic surgeries and 15,262 paediatric cardiology invasive procedures to our credit.
In fact our workload today has increased nearly four-fold from the year we began operations. In 2008 alone we handled 175,667 patients, 12,704 being inpatients; performing 3,266 cardiothoracic surgeries in the course of the year with 2,145 open-heart, 759 closed-heart and 362 thoracic surgeries as well as over 8,000 interventional cardiology procedures. In line with our mission to provide the best possible healthcare, we keep abreast of and are active in our efforts to advance knowledge as well as develop and adopt new procedures for the benefit of all our patients.
