The Cardiothoracic Cluster brings together the skills of all the specialties related to heart diseases. It has a total capacity of 425 beds (including 22 Outpatients’ places).

Patient management is organised around:

• a shared consultation platform in close co-operation with the non-invasive investigation centres (Ultrasound, ECG, Stress tests, Holter, etc.)
• an emergency department and an intensive cardiac care unit
• an interventional cardiology technology platform at Haut-Lévêque (6 haemodynamic and electrophysiology suites) as well as an invasive investigation area at Saint-André
• two operating theatres, cardiac and thoracic, which are located with the resuscitation and continuous monitoring units

Many associations act to support patients and their families on a daily basis and to improve their quality of life alongside the medical and paramedical teams. Their main role is to break the isolation with a close relationship. Depending on their specialisation, they also contribute to awareness-raising and prevention activities and support research.
