Ewha Womans University Seoul Hospital has opened a new era by achieving a new record in the field of aortic surgery.
Ewha Aortic Vascular Hospital is the first hospital dedicated to aortic treatment in Korea's university hospital, and opened at Ewha Womans University Seoul Hospital in June last year and achieved 1,000 cases of aortic surgery in the shortest period in Korea within a year and three months after the start of treatment.
Ewha Aortic Vascular Hospital held a ceremony in the attached conference room on the 7th floor of Ewha Womans University Seoul Hospital on the 11th to celebrate 1,000 cases of aortic surgery. Since starting treatment on June 19 last year, Ewha Aortic Vascular Hospital has surpassed 100 cases of aortic surgery in 55 days, followed by 500 cases in 7 months.
At 11 a.m. on the 6th, a professor of emergency medicine at a medical center in Seoul requested all of them, saying, `A man in his 60s who was complaining of chest pain is suspected of aortic dissection.' Ewha University Aortic Vascular Hospital immediately operates the EXPRESS (Ewha Xtraordinary Precision Safe AORTIC Surgery) system to prepare all necessary procedures for surgery before the patient arrives. Upon arrival, A moved to the operating room, underwent aortic surgery, and was able to save his life. It was the 1000th aortic surgery at Ewha Aortic Vascular Hospital.
Aortic diseases are usually super-emergency diseases that require immediate response, so it is important to diagnose them quickly and treat them accurately. A was able to save A's life because the Ewha Aortic Vascular Hospital was equipped with an EXPRESS system that enables emergency surgery and treatment if necessary, and specialized medical staff, facilities and equipment.
Song Seok-won, head of Ewha University's Aortic Vascular Hospital, said "It was possible to achieve 1,000 cases of aortic surgery thanks to Professor Nam Sang-beom of the Department of Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine, Professor Lee Kwang-hoon of the Department of Radiology and Cardiovascular Surgery, IVF, ICU nurses, and ward nurses." Thank you for your hard work"We will do our best to save the lives of first responders by preparing emergency surgery and procedures teams for aortic and vascular diseases 24 hours a day, 365 days a year."."
Joo Woong, head of Ewha Womans University Seoul Hospital, said, "Aortic surgery is possible only with high-tech facilities, excellent medical staff, and a system that can save golden time. It is an unprecedented record that 1,000 cases have been achieved in a year and three months. We will try to save more patients based on skills, overwhelming facilities, and systems that no one can match."
