Research and Publications

Staying abreast of new technology and diagnostic as well as treatment options for our patients is a high priority at Baylor Jack and Jane Hamilton Heart and Vascular Hospital. Our goal is to develop and be involved in advanced research of the highest integrity that will allow our patients to participate in and benefit from innovative heart and vascular discoveries. Research is the backbone and first step in defining patient care. The 75-plus trials we are currently running are investigating many areas, including an anticoagulant that does not require INR bloodwork, genes and angina, atrial fibrillation, and stenting of the left main coronary artery.

The physicians on our medical staff and clinical staff members have been published in numerous journals and books, on topics ranging from atrial septal defects to congestive heart failure to angiography. To view them, please click here.
