The 2015 proceeds will purchase a Centrimag - a device to temporarily support the right or left side of the heart. Heart failure affects 5-6 million people in the US. Of those 5-600,000 will have end-stage heart failure not treatable with medicine alone. Baptist Health is the ONLY adult heart transplant facility and only adult mechanical circulatory support (MCS) program (heart assist devices) in the state of Arkansas.
