U.S. News evaluates a hospital's performance in treating patients with challenging heart conditions such as advanced cardiovascular disease and other complex conditions.
Hospitals are evaluated on 30-day survival; patient satisfaction; the proportion of patients who were discharged home after treatment (rather than going to another care facility); the quality and level of nurse staffing; advanced programs and technologies such as transplant programs; patient services such as cardiac rehabilitation and hospice; and other measures of care.
You can also assess a hospital's performance in specific cardiac procedures, such as:
-- Abdominal aortic aneurysm repair.
-- Aortic valve replacement surgery.
-- Transcatheter aortic valve repair, or TAVR.
