The Children's Heart Foundation is funding new a research project by William Goodyer, MD, PhD (Stanford University School of Medicine), titled: “Precision Treatment of Ventricular Arrhythmias in Congenital Heart Disease”.

Abnormal heart rhythms known as “ventricular arrhythmias” (VAs) are one of the leading causes of death in children born with congenital heart disease. This new CHF-funded research aims to change that by delivering medication directly to the heart, where it’s needed most. Using an innovative “smart” drug-delivery approach, researchers hope to control life-threatening arrhythmias more effectively while reducing harmful side effects to the rest of the body.

The goal: safer, more precise treatments—and more lives saved. ❤️

I have been contacted by a mom who has requested to connect with another mom who has been or is in her situation. If you are able to assist, please contact me at [email protected] or you can fb message me at michelle rintamaki Here is the situation: "I need to talk to other parents who have a adult child that needs a heart transplant. My son needs a heart transplant but does not want it. I need to talk to someone else who is watching their child who is having life threating issues causing their child to be rushed to the emergence room. How do they deal with the stress of not knowing how much time their child has to live." Thank you to anyone who can relate. Michelle L. Rintamaki
