Heart to Heart is a monthly newsletter from the experts at
the Heart Center at Arkansas Children's Hospital. Our
team of pediatric cardiologists, heart surgeons, cardiovascular perfusionists,
nurses and other specialty trained caregivers have assembled together
the articles and other educational materials in Heart to Heart to
educate the people we serve.
If your child has been diagnosed with a heart condition
or is about to undergo treatment for a specific condition, if you are
a cardiologist reviewing information for a possible patient referral
or a professional looking for more information about the topics in the
field of cardiology and cardiovascular surgery, Heart to Heart is
an excellent resource.
If you miss an edition of Heart to Heart, the archived issues
will be available online.
For more information or to submit article ideas, contact Trenda
Ray, APN, MNSc, Pediatric and Congenital Cardiac Surgery office
at (501) 364-5864.
