Congrats to Dr. Bajwa, Dr. Ayala, Dr. Martin, and their team on a successful first case! We're excited to have added another option for treatment for our patients.

A minimally invasive therapy for treating select patients with tricuspid valve regurgitation is now available at CHI Health Nebraska Heart!

The team completed its first procedure on Thursday, making it the first at the hospital and for all of CHI Health in Nebraska. Congratulations to the physicians and team who made this possible, ensuring our patients have access to the latest and greatest treatments!
