The goal of the Patrick J. Scanlon MD Cardiovascular Research Fund is
to support research that will directly help people with heart problems. In order to reach that goal we are supporting
the Cardiovascular Research Institute (CVRI) at the Loyola University Medical Center outside Chicago. The CVRI has been doing basic and translational
research for many years.
More research information can be found below:
- Major research projects and
findings of the CVRI

Major Research and Findings of the CVRI
Over
the years, the CVRI has contributed much to the knowledgebase of information about the heart. By publishing their research,
the CVRI has helped doctors worldwide diagnose and treat patients. To see some of the current cardiovascular research
going on at the CVRI see CVRI Current Research.
Future Focus of CVRI Research
The CVRI continues to conduct a wide variety
of reserch related to the heart. However, the CVRI is specificially looking into the causes and consequences of:
- High blood pressure
- Coronary artery disease
- Congestive Heart Failure
Research that Dr. Scanlon was involved with
Cardiovascular research requires a dedicated team with multiple responsibilities. At the end of the project,
the team puts together an article that describes the findings. Articles with important findings are sometimes published
in industry magazines such as the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) to be read and shared with doctors worldwide.
Dr. Scanlon participated on many teams with many research projects over the years. Here is a list of some of the articles he worked on along with the team members by year:
2001 - Evidence-Based
Management of the Acute Coronary Syndrome (Buy Book)
Book Description: Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is at present the most common clinical entity requiring
admission of a patient to an inpatient cardiology service. In the past, evaluation and treatment options for patients with
this syndrome were either empirical or based on observational reports of clinical outcomes. It is now generally agreed that
to acquire meaningful clinical data, a randomized clinical trial is the best method of clinical research. Over the past few
years an ever-increasing number of randomized clinical tests have resulted in a much deeper evidence-based understanding of
the pathophysiology, presentation, risk assessment, and management of the acute coronary syndrome and its subsets, i.e., unstable
angina, non-Q wave myocardial infarction, and ST elevation/Q-wave infarction. This book organizes the data gleaned from these
trials to allow the reader to better understand the best use of individual forms of evaluation and treatment, and how these
individual treatments can be best combined to result in optimal patient outcom
