Let's Start with the Heart with Dr. Paul Yock! Encore Edition
Manage episode 343674404 series 3397464
Meet Dr. Paul Yock! Dr. Yock is famous for fundamentally improving cardiac interventions over his entire career. He walks us through the basics of a heart attack and how they were treated from the time his career began to now. His Rapid Exchange (RX) catheter innovation "rapidly" became the global standard. As the treatment for heart attack evolved to include cardiac stents, he next invented a catheter to see inside the patient's arteries and optimize stent deployment and patient outcomes. Dr. Paul Yock has won awards as an engineer as well as a cardiologist and is the founding director of the Stanford Byers Center for Biodesign dedicated to advanced training and medical technology. Even with all of his incredible achievements, Dr. Paul Yock is very down to earth and fascinating to talk to. Hear about heart attacks from the cardiologist who continues to learn from them!
