HEART TRANSPLANT AND MECHANICAL CIRCULATORY SUPPORT SURGICAL FELLOWSHIP
Baylor University Medical Center at Dallas
began offering a one-year cardiothoracic
surgical fellowship for heart transplantation
and mechanical circulatory support in
2013. Patient care and case management
occurs in the intensive care unit, the
hospital setting, and in the outpatient clinic.
Training includes the preoperative evaluation of transplant
recipients, surgical technique of transplantation, post-
operative management in the intensive care unit, acute care
management, operations on post-transplant complications
and exposure to the process of research in the field of
transplantation. Baylor University Medical Center offers a
rigorous program and the fellow becomes increasingly involved
in the intensive care unit management of the patient which is
complex, as well as the surgical responsibilities related to heart
transplantation and mechanical circulatory support.
