FEBRUARY 2015. BUTLER, NEW JERSEY<\/strong> \u2013 The Congenital Heart Defect Coalition (CHD Coalition) bestowed two grants totaling $63,423 to advance critical research with the potential of improving the long-term quality of life for children and young adults born with a heart defect. CHD Coalition\u2019s ability to fund these programs was a direct result of the hugely successful 7th Annual CHD Awareness Walk held last September at Darlington Park, Mahwah, NJ. The event raised over $110,000 in donations and attracted well over 1,200 participants encompassing families, doctors, nurses, and businesspeople from all over New York, New Jersey and Connecticut. <\/p>\n

The first grant was awarded to Boston Children\u2019s Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts. Their project entitled \u201cConsortium for Congenital Cardiac Care Measurement of Nursing Practice (C4-MNP)\u201d aims to set benchmarks and standards for pediatric cardiovascular nursing care across the Nation. Nurses have a drastic impact on the outcome and long-term success of patients. CHD Coalition has fully funded the requested amount of $48,423 to complete Phase 3 of the research in 2015.<\/p>\n

Boston Children\u2019s Hospital President and CEO Sandra L. Fenwick writes, \u201cWith your support, we are advancing the field of cardiac intensive care nursing, giving children with congenital heart disease a better start to life. We never stop looking for better ways to heal little hearts. Thank you.\u201d<\/p>\n

The second grant in the amount of $15,000 was awarded to the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York, New York. The goal of their research program is to validate the use of a low-cost 3D desktop printer to accurately create physical replicas of the heart from MRI of patients with congenital heart defects. A 3D replica allows the surgeon, cardiologist, and entire surgical team direct inspection of a patient\u2019s heart prior to the operating room. This offers a huge potential for a successful outcome and reduction of risk in a complex surgery by decreasing the time in the operating room. While there are a handful of reports describing the use of 3D models of CHD patients, these have been conducted with more costly equipment, which would prevent wide adoption of the technology.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
