The OHSU Innovations in Cardiovascular Health 2022-2023 report highlights work in clinical care and research that expands the possibilities for cardiovascular health.

Here’s a look at how we are transforming care for people affected by cardiovascular disease.

• People with cardiogenic shock get immediate, multidisciplinary attention from OHSU’S Shock Team, which pulls out every stop to save them.
• Heart patients can now get lifelong care under the umbrella of OHSU’s Knight Cardiovascular Institute, which has expanded its care to all stages of life.
• The sickest heart patients at OHSU now receive specialized critical care from two cardiologists who are helping establish a new subspecialty, cardiac critical care.
• The link between non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and heart attack risk is becoming better known through the leadership of an OHSU cardiologist.
• Patients with obesity, who are at risk for heart disease, have newer and better weight loss options at OHSU’s Center for Preventive Cardiology.
