- A team with a heart ❤️ for helping others...
Patients have access to skilled cardiovascular care with WNH’s state-of-the-art cardiac cath lab. Opened in 2020 in the H. L. Snyder Medical Foundation Surgery Center, the cath lab is one of two in the state of Kansas at a rural critical access hospital.
Dr. Ryan Beard and his team may perform a cardiac catheterization to diagnose heart conditions, evaluate blood flow to the heart muscle, or open a blockage in the artery. A few procedures commonly done in the cath lab include coronary angioplasty, placement of a stent, and peripheral catheterization.
"Most people are unaware of the wide variety of procedures we can do," says cath lab nurse Steven Kramp, RN. "We use moderate sedation, which helps with pain and anxiety. A lot of people say it’s better than the dentist!"
