The latest in hi-tech care comes to Houston For The Leader Houston Methodist Hospital recently opened its 22-story Paula and Joseph C. “Rusty” Walter III Tower, offering the newest, most precise imaging and surgical equipment for complex heart and brain surgeries. The nationally ranked Houston Methodist DeBakey Heart & Vascular Center and Houston Methodist Neurological Institute moved into the new building. Cardiovascular surgeons, cardiologists, neurosurgeons and neurologists from these centers believe the advanced technology will transform care and become the new standard for similar facilities around the country. “We needed space to grow and the most up-to-date technology in the world in order to provide the best patient care possible,” said Dr. Gavin Britz. “This puts us in the top tier.” “It’s a transformational moment,” said Dr. Alan Lumsden, chair of Houston Methodist DeBakey Heart & Vascular Center and the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery. The upgraded facility has what he describes as “the most advanced cardiothoracic operating rooms that exist.” HIGH-TECH HIGHLIGHTS The new hybrid ORs feature built-in advanced imaging capaPhoto supplied bilities.

By Betsy Denson betsy@theleadernews.com More than 3 million cases of Alzheimer’s disease are diagnosed in the US each year. This diagnosis doesn’t just affect the patient but also the family who will care for their loved ones. Like most struggles in life, however, you don’t have to go it alone. When Sue Amash and her husband brought his father to Houston in order to care for him, they knew that he had some sort of dementia. Although there is no definitive test for Alzheimer’s, Amash got a diagnosis for her father-in-law from his doctor after an evaluation, which included the Saint Louis University Mental Status Examination. Amash said it was difficult because she and her husband were getting pushback from other relatives but that it was important to have a diagnosis in order to get him the help that he needed. “We don’t do a good job about preparing for death,” said Amash. “Of managing the systems and resources that are out there. You’re sort of hamstrung, both emotionally and physically. But it doesn’t have to be perfect. You have to give yourself a break.” Amash’s father-in-law lived with her and her husband for three years and then went to an assisted living facility for his last two years of life. Amash said that two of her biggest resources were the Alzheimer’s Association where she and her husband attended support groups and Houston Hospice who came to visit her father-in-law regularly to monitor his medication once going to the doctor was harder for him. “It was a good thing that we engaged them sooner,” said Amash. “It made it easier later on.” For those with a loved one whose

memory loss is disrupting their daily life, the Alzheimer’s Association has information about warning Signs of Alzheimer’s disease. Alzheimer’s Association Support Group Specialist Kathy Spetter said that if you or a loved one is experiencing any of the signs, a visit to the doctor is in order. “Early diagnosis gives you a chance to seek treatment and plan for your future,” said Spetter. “You can learn how Alzheimer’s is diagnosed, what questions you should ask your physician, and the importance of receiving an early diagnosis,” said Spetter.
An Alzheimer’s diagnosis is a hard thing and Spetter counsels a time to grieve but also a time to build a care team. Making legal and financial plans at the beginning of a diagnosis will make things less stressful down the road. “A care team is a group of people who you will partner with and rely on to provide you help, care, and support and connection throughout the course of the disease,” said Spetter. Spetter stresses that there is no one-size fits all formula when it comes to Alzheimer’s care.
“Needs change at different stages of the disease and each family’s situation is unique,” she said. “Deciding on care can be a tough decision.” At every step of the way, the Alzheimer’s Association has resources that can help families, such as Individualized consultation sessions to assist families with creating a care plan for their loved one; access to resources and support through their 24 hour HELPline (800-272-3900); Peer-led support groups for caregivers of persons with Alzheimer’s See Alzheimer’s, P. 4B

Being a caregiver can feel isolating. Caregivers should know that they do not have to do this alone. They can connect with a group of people walking through similar experiences for support, problem solving, and resources by participating in a caregiver support group.”
AIKIDO & AIKIjutsu For lawyer Christina Lesher, helping her mother care for her grandfather through the disease – including the financial challenges – led her to become an elder care attorney. “Talking about money is difficult with family, but you need to be able to step in when your loved one can’t do it anymore,” said Lesher. “A good elder law attorney can help you figure out what financial resources are available to you besides Medicare, like Medicaid and Veteran’s benefits.

Additionally, four hybrid operating rooms combine features of a catheterization lab and traditional OR, allowing doctors to rapidly convert from a minimally invasive procedure to an open version, if necessary. PATIENT BENEFITS The facility’s enhanced technology enables heart and brain surgeons to deliver state-of-the-art treatment when precision matters most. · Robotic-assisted technology improves the safety and speed of surgery, resulting in faster healing and shorter hospital stays. · Real-time visibility with
intraoperative imaging maximizes surgical precision allowing surgeons to better locate and remove diseased areas, such as blood clots or cancerous tumors. · Imaging technology available in the OR leads to better results. Doctors can diagnose and perform procedures in a single location, rather than transport patients to radiology and back to the OR. · Image-guided precision and less-invasive surgery means fewer repeat procedures, faster recoveries and potentially improved outcomes. · Private rooms for all patients offer greater comfort for recovery and more space for visiting family and friends.

hether you’re ready or not, Moms are making Christmas lists, Dads are accepting the inevitable, and children are figuring out exactly what they’ll put on their list to Santa. As a business owner, you’ll have two options this year: 1. Take the business you get based on name awareness and word of mouth, or 2. Market your way on to Christmas lists all over this area of Houston. If you believe that marketing works, we know there’s not a better place to reach 29,000 homes every week than through The Leader. We also know margins are important, and if you can minimize the amount of marketing money you spend, all the while being effective with that investment, you’re primed for your best holiday season in years. There’s one key to marketing that even the newest of store owners knows: You can’t advertise once and hope shoppers arrive. You have to be consistent, and you have to be repetitive. And that’s why we’ve created some advertising package options, and each of them offers you an opportunity to build your brand throughout the holiday shopping season. We’re not giving these ads away, but we’re going as low as possible to ensure you have the chance to reach as many customers as possible during the 8 weeks leading up to Christmas.

MHGH cardiovascular program offers state-of-the-art technology Memorial Hermann Greater Heights For The Leader After suffering a potentially deadly heart attack and receiving lifesaving care at Memorial Hermann Greater Heights Hospital, Eric Sanchez has regained control of his health, shedding 40 pounds in matter of weeks. The 38-year-old man is now urging others to never ignore the signs of a heart attack, no matter what your age. “You feel neck pain or jaw pain, don’t ignore it. I’m really glad I went to the hospital when I did. I don’t think I would’ve made it if I’d had the heart attack elsewhere,” Sanchez said. In August, Sanchez sought treatment at Memorial Hermann Greater Heights after experiencing pain in his jaw and chest. His symptoms ended up being the warning signs of a heart attack and hospital staff sprang into action to save him. “I felt like I was losing my breath and then it went black. I don’t know if I was dreaming, but it was like I was out of my body and I saw a young lady pumping on my chest. I went to another room where I saw my dad, who passed away. My dad told me to go back, it wasn’t my time. That’s when I woke up,” he remembers. Although he is relatively young, the heart attack Sanchez sustained was due to several severely clogged arteries. Using a minimally invasive procedure, Dr. Philip Haas, a cardiologist affiliated with Memorial Hermann Greater Heights and assistant professor at McGovern Medical School at UTHealth, inserted stents to reopen Sanchez’s arteries and restore blood flow. “We use a balloon-tipped catheter to go up through a blood vessel in the groin and

access the blockage. We inflate the balloon to compress the blockage, and a stent is inserted to keep the artery open,” Dr. Haas said. For Sanchez, however, the stenting procedure was merely the beginning of his journey to get healthy. “It is still important that people make lifestyle changes to prevent the arteries from becoming clogged again,” Dr. Haas said. Sanchez took Dr. Haas’s advice to heart, jumpstarting an exercise regimen and overhauling his diet. “I cut out the greasy fried food, pork and white rice. I’m eating a lot more vegetables, fish and whole grains. I go to the gym every day,” says Sanchez. For Sanchez, the results have been immediate. He says he lost about 40 pounds in about a month. “Many people believe that
heart disease only affects those in their 60s to 80s. However, as Eric has shown, it can affect people of all ages, even as young as those in their 30s. We want people to eat right, take up some form of regular exercise and make sure they talk to their doctor about any types of shortness of breath, heart palpitations, chest pain, or soreness in their arms, neck or jaw. It could be signs of something much more serious,” Dr. Haas said. Memorial Hermann Greater Heights has earned the Joint Commission’s Gold Seal of Approval® for Chest Pain Certification. Its comprehensive cardiovascular program offers access to a wide range of specialized services, clinical excellence and state-ofthe-art technology to treat heart and vascular disease.
