RESEARCH AND INNOVATION We support groundbreaking research and innovation geared toward driving improvements in care and outcomes, and developing new therapies for the next generation. Michigan Congenital Heart Outcomes Research and Discovery (M-CHORD) Program M-CHORD is our unique research core within the Congenital Heart Center supported by dedicated faculty and staff. Our comprehensive expertise spans the spectrum of investigation. Pediatric Heart Network core site We are one of nine centers across the country selected to participate in the Pediatric Heart Network, funded by the National Institutes of Health. Through this network our patients have access to clinical trials of cutting-edge therapies and interventions. Recent studies have included the FUEL trial in Fontan patients studying novel drug therapies, and the related FALD study (led by Michigan Medicine) which evaluates impact on liver health. Novel devices and technology We lead the development and testing of novel devices tailored toward the pediatric heart population. Examples include: 3-D airway splints As reported in the New England Journal of Medicine, we have developed and implanted the first bioresorbable airway splints created using 3-D printing technology. These splints have been implanted in 27 patients to date with life-threatening airway narrowing, many of whom are also impacted by congenital heart disease. Donor heart preservation technology Our investigators are developing technology to allow prolonged perfusion of donor hearts with the aim of improving organ availability and viability for pediatric heart transplant.

Regenerative medicine Our team is leading studies exploring new treatments for children with heart failure through the use of stem cells and tissue engineering. Connecting data across the country to enable more discoveries, faster improvement We lead data coordinating center activities for Cardiac Networks United, which integrates five large networks spanning in total more than two-thirds of the nation’s congenital heart programs. These initiatives bring multiple data sources and expertise together to drive novel research otherwise not possible, and translate discovery to the bedside across hospitals to improve outcomes. Precision medicine Through multiple lines of investigation, we aim to study and develop more individualized strategies for prevention, recognition, and treatment of adverse events tailored to the specific traits and needs of each heart patient.
Improving outcomes across the lifespan We are one of the first programs in the country to systematically track long-term survival, morbidities, and quality of life for children undergoing heart surgery at our center, regardless of where they live or receive follow-up care. We have developed a novel “patient-reported outcomes” portal that will drive a better understanding of these critical outcomes, conduct numerous studies geared toward optimizing neurodevelopment, and have recently initiated a new program focused on expanding psychosocial care and research.
