Sarasota Memorial Hospital has earned 3-Star ratings from The Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) for overall quality and clinical outcomes in all three adult cardiac surgery procedures the national organization measures: aortic valve replacement (AVR), coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and AVR combined with CABG surgery. The 3-star ratings, which denote the highest category of quality, place SMH’s cardiac surgeons among the best of nearly 4,000 surgeons and providers in the United States and Canada participating in the STS Adult Cardiac Surgery Database, officials announced at Sarasota Memorial’s fifth annual Cardiac Summit on Saturday. Only 11 participating hospitals achieved the 3-Star ratings across the board – for overall care and clinical outcomes achieved in isolated CABG, isolated AVR and CABG+AVR procedures.
