Heart Care

Cardiac Catheterization, Angioplasty and Stenting 

The invasive cardiologists of Atlantic Health System perform more than 7,000 cardiac catheterizations annually and over 3,500 angioplasties to open blocked vessels of the heart. Our cardiologists frequently perform transradial cardiac catheterizations which use the radial artery in the wrist for access. At Morristown Medical Center, about 65% of cases are now performed utilizing the radial approach, allowing for a quicker recovery and lower complication rate.
