MMUH is equipped with state of the art Siemens Artis Icono Biplane catheter labs adjacent to each other with plans to install a third catheter lab in the provided space. Cath lab coordination is supported using the dedicated Labyrinth IT system and dedicated nurse Cath Lab Coordinator. One cath lab runs routinely from 8am-6pm and Saturday mornings from 9am -12pm, with the second lab running 9am to 5pm Monday to Friday. Cath labs run mixed lists of acute and elective patients. Angiograms are supported using the Change Healthcaresystem, images being visible on any PC within the Trust at any time by the cardiology team as well as Cath reports and BCIS returns. The Trust has a longstanding PCI programme and has undertaken coronary intervention with off-site surgical support from neighbouring cardiac surgical facilities for over 2 decades. On average more than 1100 interventional procedures including approximately 900 PCIs are undertaken every year. A full range of diagnostic and therapeutic angioplasty devices are available including IVUS, OCT, pressure wire studies, rotational atherectomy, thrombectomy catheters, distal protection devices IVL etc. We are a high volume radial centre with 96% of PCI cases undertaken radially in 2023. We utilise pressure wire in approximately 20% of our cases and intracoronary imaging (OCT or IVUS) in 15-20% of cases. We have the full range of tools for calcium modification including rotational atherectomy, IVL as well as orbital atherectomy. A primary angioplasty service for acute myocardial infarction was established in the early 2000s, with 24 hours, 7 day service running since January 2005. There is a full Emergency department at the new Midlands Metropolitan Hospital. There is a recognised Chronic Total Occlusion (CTO) programme utilising a variety of modern techniques with access to the entire range of specialised equipment including Sting-Ray. We also have a mature balloon mitral valvuloplasty programme and are looking to expand our structural intervention programme. The single-site Acute Hospital (MMUH) benefits from co-located specialist services which will support the new Emergency Department with dedicated imaging facility and Assessment Units. It provides state-of-the-art treatment and care for patients from Sandwell and across the region and will become the civic heart of the area and a point of pride for the community. The appointee will get extensive experience in complex PCI and PPCI including intracoronary imaging and physiology. In addition, the post will also include ward duties, PPCI overnight oncalls and outpatient clinics. The posts are for a period of one year.
