"Such a feat took the dedication of many highly skilled people including: surgeons, anesthesiologists, anesthesia techs, residents, fellows, nurses, surgical/scrub techs, OR physician assistants and perfusionists. There were also behind-the-scenes staff who clean instruments, restock equipment and turn over the rooms; all the team members in the ICU and the step-down unit who take care of these patients after their operations; and the outpatient nurse practitioners, medical assistants and nurse clinical coordinators who help patients return to their functioning lives. All in all, an estimated 200+ team members were involved in saving these patients’ lives."
