At the WVU Heart Institute, we have the doctors, the technology, and the facilities to make a rapid diagnosis and take quick, effective action.We’ve refined our coordination and
teamwork to a science.

For a heart attack patient, “door to balloon” is the time from arrival at the hospital until the start of balloon angioplasty.

The national goal for “door to balloon” is 90 minutes. But the WVU Heart Institute already far exceeds that national goal.

Balloon angioplasty opens coronary arteries, restores blood flow to the heart muscle, and decreases your risk of disability or death.

If you have a heart attack, every minute counts.
