Cincinnati Children’s Heart Transplant Program

Cincinnati Children’s Heart Transplant Program is the largest pediatric heart transplant program in Ohio, performing the largest volume of pediatric transplants annually for the past decade. Our team is expert in the treatment of complex heart disease and heart transplantation.

We care for infants, children, adolescents, and adults with heart failure, uncorrectable congenital heart disease and cardiomyopathy, facilitating their candidacy for transplantation, and delivering their post-transplant care.

Our Commitment to Quality Care

Our goal is to provide children facing heart failure with the best quality of life and chance to live with as little limitation as possible. Our areas of emphasis include:

  • Care is provided by a specialized team of cardiologists, surgeons, intensive care specialists, nurse practitioners, and nurses.
  • Outcomes-focused care and research to optimize survival and quality of life.
  • Quality initiatives, such as prevention of rejection and use of cutting-edge technologies to detect for harmful antibodies and transplant coronary artery disease.

Our clinical team’s extensive experience and our commitment to long-term quality outcomes form the foundation of the Heart Transplant Program.
