Today Heart Hospital of New Mexico at Lovelace Medical Center
(HHNM) and GE HealthCare (Nasdaq: GEHC) announced HHNM
as the first location in the United States to install GE
HealthCare’s latest Allia Image Guided System (IGS) Pulse, which
was designed to provide exceptional image quality and improve
workflow for the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases
(CVD). HHNM will use the Allia IGS Pulse system in its cardiac
electrophysiology (EP) lab to plan, guide and monitor the outcomes
of electrophysiological procedures, such as cardiac ablations,
cardiac catherizations, transcatheter aortic valve replacements,
balloon and coronary angioplasties and more.
“This advanced imaging technology allows me and my fellow
clinicians to perform complex cardiology interventions with a high
level of precision and exceptional image quality,” said Sean Mazer,
M.D., FHRS, FACC, electrophysiologist and president of the New
Mexico Heart Institute/Lovelace Medical Group*. “We can accommodate
patients of any size and the system provides us with a personalized
workspace that meets our specific needs and preferences, resulting
in shorter surgical time and better outcomes for our patients.”
According to the 2024 Heart Disease and Stroke Statistics: A
Report of U.S. and Global Data From the American Heart Association,
heart disease has been the leading cause of death in the U.S. for
one hundred years – with nearly half (48.6%) of all people over the
age of 20 years old having some type of cardiovascular disease
(CVD), including coronary heart disease, heart failure, stroke and,
most notably, high blood pressure.
“It’s an honor to have the U.S.’s first Allia IGS Pulse system
at Heart Hospital of New Mexico,” said Brian Miller, chief
executive officer of HHNM*. “As New Mexico’s only hospital
dedicated exclusively to care of the heart, we pride ourselves on
providing innovative treatment options for our patients, keeping
them close to home for care.”
HHNM clinicians are equipped with an adaptable, versatile
solution for a wide range of clinical situations and procedures.
The Allia IGS Pulse system is designed to help improve clinician
workflow while also providing exceptional imaging at the right dose
for visible impact in complex cardiology interventions regardless
of patient size - including large and bariatric patients with a BMI
of greater than 30.
“GE HealthCare has had a long-standing relationship with
Lovelace Health System and has witnessed its ongoing leadership in
providing the best possible care to its patients," said Arnaud
Marie, General Manager for Interventional at GE HealthCare. “We are
delighted to collaborate with them for the first U.S. installation
of the Allia IGS Pulse System. This next step is a demonstration of
our commitment to addressing today’s healthcare challenges,
unlocking efficiencies, and most importantly, providing optimal
experiences for patients and their providers.”
