The mission of the Texas Center for Pediatric and Congenital Heart Disease at Dell Children's Medical Center is to redesign the care of patients and families with congenital heart disease by developing a model system of health delivery that is integrated, holistic, patient-centered, value oriented and technology driven. The multidisciplinary, multispecialty team is capable of treating even the most rare and complex cardiac conditions. Patients are surrounded with the highest level of expertise at all times to ensure best outcomes. The meticulous attention to detail provides safe and effective care to even the tiniest, most complex patients as well as adults with congenital heart disease.

In pediatric anesthesia, small adjustments in mechanical ventilation may lead to large physiological changes. The accuracy of measured values becomes critically important as the size of the patient decreases, and the severity of illness increases. With the Getinge Flow Family of anesthesia machines, you get innovative tools designed to fine tune and personalize anesthesia delivery to manage even the most challenging patient cases. 

With a firm belief that every person and community should have access to the best possible care, Getinge provides hospitals and life science institutions with products and solutions aiming to improve clinical results and optimize workflows. The offering includes products and solutions for intensive care, cardiovascular procedures, operating rooms, sterile reprocessing and life science.
