Canberra Hospital to expand cardiac care with new building launch

One of its key features is the new acute cardiac care unit.

The Canberra Hospital in Australia is set to expand its cardiology services with the upcoming launch of its Critical Services building this August.

The hospital’s heart care services will be moved to the new facility and will feature a new acute cardiac care unit, a cardiac day unit, and three cardiac catheterisation laboratories.

The expansion includes a dedicated space for cardiac electrophysiology procedures and a larger lab to accommodate more complex procedures such as transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI).

Meanwhile, the building will house a room designed to perform exercise stress tests, equipped with an exercise bike and the traditional treadmill for patients with impaired mobility.

According to Health Minister Rachel Stephen-Smith, the hospital’s expanded services will allow timely access for patients to be treated for heart conditions.

“Bringing these cardiology services together in the new building will also support smooth transfers of patients between the units, ongoing monitoring and timely interventions for patients where required,” said Stephen-Smith.
