The new statistics on heart disease are frightening. Heart disease, despite major developments, has become and epidemic due in-part to the obesity epidemic. Heart disease was (prior to 1990) a disease primarily for middle-aged men. While this demographic has significantly improved, so has its spread across multiple demographics. These demographics include; 1. Women, 2. Men [30 to 50] and 3. Teens . This is a growth of 75%, where middle-aged men were the sole demographic. It's now one of four, with a fifth (Children) developing.

Clearly, the impressive developments in medicine are not having the impact it should. Our recent association with the American Heart Association has revealed tremendous gains in cardiology, yet the problem is growing out of control. This section has been set up so that researchers and patients (interested in clinical research) can view and/or participate in on going research.

Problems wih health are always issues of concern and worry for patients. And none soo much as cardiac problems. However, in initial clinical interviews, patients have detailed concerns about treatment not address. In setting up this research program we took a new look at problems facing cardiac patients, assuming that much had been done in the field of cardiac care. We found not only numerous patient concerns unaddressed, but serious cardiac health issue also overlooked.

As such, we have expanded our look in to the research supporting cardiac care. This yielded significant areas in which cardiac care and medical science can be improved. So, in the month of November of 2003, our 14th year of existence, we have begun to move our medical science research from basic experimental research into clinical research. This includes our involvement in the American Heart Association.
