MetroHealth Dialogue May 2012

Reducing risks with multi-fetal pregnancies
Equipped with both the region’s most diverse practice in caring for high-risk pregnancies and a Level III Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), MetroHealth delivers healthy outcomes for the tiniest infants and multiple births.
   
Melanoma on the rise; early detection key
Surgical oncologist Bruce J. Averbook, MD, FACS, details MetroHealth’s expertise in treating melanoma — the most rapidly increasing cancer diagnosis in the United States. Our services are critical, as Ohio consistently ranks among the states with the highest number of diagnoses.
   
Provent combats growing prevalence of sleep apnea
A huge public health problem, sleep apnea kills through cardiovascular complications and vehicular accidents. In the past, the large, clunky CPAP machine was thought to be the best treatment for the disorder, but now Provent, a tiny device that could fit inside a wallet, is seeing big results.
   
Comprehensive, high-tech care for complex cerebrovascular issues
MetroHealth's neurosciences, neurology, interventional radiology and vascular surgery teams collaborate to offer comprehensive, high-tech care for complex cerebrovascular issues.
   
MetroHealth clinic focuses on care of concussion injuries
The MetroHealth Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation is now offering patients a Concussion Clinic five days a week, providing patients swift access to MetroHealth's nationally ranked rehabilitation services for concussive brain trauma.
   
  Easy access to imaging for referring physicians
