At 43, a Sioux Falls mom of three suffered a heart attack and went into cardiac arrest. Quick action and expert cardiac care saved her life.

Proud of Dr. Tarek Mahrous and the team who were there when it mattered most. 🫀

The EVOQUE system is a game-changing transcatheter valve designed for patients suffering from severe tricuspid regurgitation — offering a minimally invasive solution when open-heart surgery isn’t an option.

Big Thank You
We’re incredibly proud of the collaboration, precision, and patient-first focus the entire team shows from cardiology and surgery to nursing and support staff. Because of your dedication, we continue to lead with innovation and provide cutting-edge care right here.

[North Central Heart @NCHeart]

Why It Matters 📷
Heart failure remains one of the leading causes of hospitalization and reduced quality of life. The Barostim offers new hope—reducing symptoms like shortness of breath and fatigue, and improving patients’ ability to stay active and independent.

[North Central Heart @NCHeart]

What is Barostim?
Barostim is an FDA-approved device that uses gentle electrical pulses to stimulate baroreceptors—specialized nerve endings in the carotid artery. By activating these natural sensors, the device helps the body regulate heart function, blood pressure.

[North Central Heart @NCHeart]

This groundbreaking procedure was a collaborative effort between Dr. Orvar Jonsson and Dr. Mark Fleming. Together, they’ve brought a life-changing option to heart failure patients who previously had few alternatives.
