HEART AND LUNG INNOVATION AT ST VINCENT’S
Heart and lung diseases affect millions of Australians. St Vincent’s is leading the way with lifesaving treatments and ground-breaking research—but we need your help.
For over 40 years, St Vincent’s has pioneered heart and lung transplants and driven innovation in novel surgeries, from Australia’s first successful heart transplant in 1984 to the revolutionary total artificial heart in 2024.
We treat 1.5 million Australians with lung and heart disease, but limited funding restricts our ability to deploy new life-saving technologies and expand our research programs.
YOUR SUPPORT WILL FUND
- Critical Lab Upgrades – Expanding our interventional cardiology capabilities to meet growing demand
- Advanced Medical Technology – Continuing our leadership in mechanical heart pumps, and the new total artificial heart technology
- Heart Lung Centre of Excellence – Building a world-class facility to transform cardiothoracic care across Australia
- Pioneering lung research – Developing an enhanced lung biobank to further cutting-edge scientific investigations
