What does it take to bring open-heart surgery to a hospital that’s never performed one?
In Episode 4 of Behind the Mask, we follow the anesthesia team at White Plains Hospital, just north of Manhattan, as they launch a brand-new cardiac anesthesia service line—ushering in an era of advanced surgical care for their community.
This is more than a clinical achievement. It’s a story of coordination between surgeons, anesthesiologists, and CRNAs; of equipping a hospital for the complexities of open-heart procedures; and of building trust—in the OR and in the region they serve.
Through candid interviews and powerful visuals, we explore what it means to bring big medicine to a community setting, and the role anesthesia plays in making that vision a reality.
???? Launching a cardiac anesthesia program
???? Bringing open-heart surgery to a regional hospital
???? Collaboration between surgery and anesthesia
???? Expanding care access north of New York City
???? Leadership, precision, and innovation in community medicine
This episode is for the builders, the believers, and the clinicians who see not just what is—but what could be.
???? Produced by NAPA (North American Partners in Anesthesia)
