Quick cardiac response: Beaumont saves lives, wins awards (USA)

"The cardiology service at Beaumont Army Medical Center, Texas, recently won a national award for the way it has increased the rate of patients who are treated for acute coronary syndrome in a timely manner. That achievement is coupled with national recognition over the past two years for the way in which the service has treated heart failure patients. The Army recently sank more than $2 million into new digital imaging equipment at Beaumont Army Medical Center, which allows staff to cut down on the time it takes doctors to work on blockages within cardiac care patients" - El Paso Times
