Mauro Moscucci, M.D., M.B.A., Delivers Lemberg Lecture on Improving Care for Coronary Patients
Shortly after joining the University of Michigan faculty in 1994, interventional cardiologist Mauro Moscucci, M.D., M.B.A., was asked to explain why the mortality rate for patients who underwent angioplasty procedures at the university’s hospital was eight times higher than that of a regional medical center. He assumed it was because the sickest patients were being airlifted from the regional hospital to the university’s medical center, but he had no data to support his assumption.
Presenting the 21st Annual Miriam Lemberg Visiting Professorship in Cardiovascular Disease Lecture nearly 20 years later, Moscucci, now the Miller School’s Interim Chair of Medicine and Chief of the Cardiovascular Division, chronicled how his and his Michigan colleagues’ quest to pinpoint the reasons – and resolve them – led to the creation of a statewide registry of percutaneous coronary interventions that is used to assess risks and improve care and outcomes for patients undergoing the non-surgical procedures to open narrowed arteries.
