A surgical team at Royal Brompton Hospital successfully completed five ‘beating heart’ mitral valve repair operations last week, using a pioneering treatment not offered anywhere else in England, Scotland or Wales.

Royal Brompton and Harefield hospitals have been named as performing “much better than expected” in the Care Quality Commission’s 2018 Adult Inpatient Survey.

Royal Brompton & Harefield NHS Foundation Trust is one of six in north west London that have formed a new network to improve imaging services – including x-ray, MRI and CT scans – to enable better care for cancer, stroke and a wide range of other conditions.

Critical care patients and their family members joined Royal Brompton's adult intensive care unit (AICU) team for their annual ‘patient day’ in mid-May.
