Dr. Sheetal Patel, Director of Lurie Children's Fetal Cardiology Program with the hospital's nationally ranked Heart Center, is our guest today to discuss advances in this type of medicine, including a newly developed process at Lurie Children's that streamlines the transferal of newborns with heart conditions to Lurie Children's from their hospital of birth, reducing transfer time and risks to the baby.
