Centre physicians completed more than 8000 interventional or diagnostic cardiac
catheterisation procedures, and performed approximately 1800 open-heart
operations, of these approximately 280 surgical cases for congenital heart
disease. These numbers, and the outcome based on the numerous procedures used
to treat different types of heart disease distinguishes the Heart Centre from
other institutions in Denmark.
The Heart Centre at Rigshospitalet offers a complex, specialized care
programme, which includes: Open heart surgery (coronary bypass procedures and
valve surgery), surgery for congenital heart disease, heart (and lung)
transplantations, surgery for atrial fibrillation, diagnostic and
interventional catheterisation procedures (including a 24-hour service of primary
percutaneous coronary intervention for acute myocardial infarction),
echocardiography, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, diagnostic and
interventional electrophysiology procedures (ablations), permanent pacemaker
insertions (including implantable cardiac defibrillators and biventricular
pacemakers), percutaneous lead extractions, percutaneous aortic valve
insertions and mitral valve repair, stress tests and ECGs. As a unique feature,
in autumn 2016 the Rigshospitalet was appointed as the national reference and
high-specialized centre in Denmark for all surgery and cardiac catherizations
for congenital heart disease as well as intervention in Grown Up Congenital
Heart Disease (GUCH).
