Focusing on the ‘tripledemic’ of RSV, flu and COVID-19 infections that occurred last year, their results underscore the importance of all types of hospital emergency departments being prepared to care for sick children, especially when health systems become strained.

Winter surges in infectious diseases can ruin holidays, but vaccination against COVID-19, flu, RSV, whooping cough and pneumonia can help.

Michigan Medicine researchers have found that growing bacteria on agar mixed with organs is an efficient and effective way to study infectious pathogens.

Patients who experience this condition following the Fontan continue to have a high risk of death from the time they’re waitlisted for a new heart through receiving the transplant, according to a 20-center study led by Michigan Medicine. And one specific complication called cyanosis – or experiencing less than normal oxygen blood levels – was associated with worsened survival.

Research published from experts at Michigan Medicine, the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, and UPMC Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh shows that children in daycare centers were not significant spreaders of COVID-19

A cost effectiveness analysis of the updated COVID-19 vaccine shows that it will save money in older adults and give good value for other adults.

The vast majority of people who have a minimally invasive heart valve replacement procedure do not participate in recommended cardiac rehabilitation, a Michigan Medicine-led study finds.

For the first time in more than 20 years, dozens of pediatric cardiologists, surgeons and other health professionals have come together to develop new guidelines intended to improve heart surgery care for this population of children and teens.

The Mobile Monitoring Transformation Project, supported by the Sickbay Clinical Platform will allow care team members to access data from cardiac monitors and all connected bedside devices on workstations, PCs, phones and tablets. The new web-based technology will transform bedside care and greatly enhance collaboration among care team members. A pilot was run last year, and units in different buildings will begin using the new technology this week, with a larger rollout planned.
