Heart and Vascular Care

CMH is recognized as a Level II STEMI Center. CMH is the only STEMI Center between Springfield and Kansas City to receive the distinguished accreditation.

ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is a specific kind of heart attack. With a STEMI, a blocked coronary artery prevents blood flow to the heart muscle. A STEMI heart attack typically requires angioplasty to restore blood flow to the heart muscle. The surgeon inserts a balloon in a blocked coronary artery and places a stent to keep the artery open.
