KU Hospital to resume heart transplants
Kansas University Hospital will restart its heart transplant program after shutting it down in 1995. A $1.5 million donation from Dr. William Reed and his wife funds the revival, enabling care for patients previously sent to other programs. Hospital CEO Bob Page says resuming the program follows its natural evolution after 44 patients were referred elsewhere last year.
