Oklahoma Heart Institute
From complete diagnostic services – including six 24/7 cath labs with some of the fastest treatment times in the nation – to open heart surgery, cardiac rehabilitation and a heart failure center, Oklahoma Heart Institute is proud to offer a full spectrum of services designed to help patients live longer, healthier lives. We invite you to learn more about the comprehensive services, state-of-the-art technology and modern amenities that make Oklahoma Heart Institute the best choice for heart care.
Oklahoma Heart Institute combines the expertise of the state’s premier cardiologists, endocrinologists and cardiovascular surgeons with the latest in cardiovascular technology to provide superior care. Oklahoma Heart Institute is the first hospital in Tulsa to acquire and use the 64-slice cardiac CT for cardiovascular diagnostic imaging. As one of the world’s most advanced diagnostic instruments, it helps experts see evidence of coronary disease with remarkable clarity and accuracy.
Oklahoma Heart Institute was the first to bring cardiovascular MRI to Oklahoma; now we are proud to introduce the new Siemens 1.5T MAGNETOM Avanto. This dedicated cardiovascular MRI system uses the latest technology to improve patient throughput and image quality. In fact, it’s so effective that it can capture an image in the time it takes to hold a breath.
Oklahoma Heart Institute uses GPS equipment and 3-D technology in each of its six new cardiac catheterization labs to provide advanced imaging capabilities. This allows doctors to determine the actual size of blockages in the heart, enabling them to see even the tiniest vessels and better determine the correct size of stent to use.
Oklahoma Heart Institute is among the first hospitals in the nation to utilize new technology that makes recovery from open heart surgery safer and less painful. Co-developed by cardiovascular surgeon James Spann, MD, the Sternal Talon prevents painful post-operative movement and decreases the risk of infection.
