Hanoi Heart Hospital has become the first medical facility in Vietnam and Southeast Asia to receive gold certification from the American Heart Association (AHA) for its heart failure treatment program. This prestigious recognition is an indication of the hospital’s commitment to delivering high-quality care and adhering to international treatment standards.
The hospital, led by Associate Professor Nguyen Sinh Hien, achieved this certification by meeting strict standards set by the AHA. One of the key criteria was a high percentage of heart failure patients adhering to treatment medication and monitoring their health post-discharge. These criteria must be maintained by at least 85% of patients for over 24 months.
Heart failure is a significant health concern with high mortality rates if left untreated. The hospital’s efforts to achieve gold certification highlight the importance of quality patient care and ongoing monitoring by healthcare professionals. The hospital’s heart failure patient management program, established in 2017, provides comprehensive care and support to patients, focusing on optimizing treatment measures and improving patient outcomes.
This recognition showcases the dedication of the hospital team and doctors in providing excellent care to heart failure patients in the region and beyond. With this certification, Hanoi Heart Hospital continues to establish itself as a leading medical facility in Vietnam, committed to delivering top-notch care that meets international standards and improves patient outcomes worldwide.
