Atrial fibrillation is the most common of heart arrhythmias and a procedure developed at Barnes-Jewish Hospital and Washington University School of Medicine to eliminate it called Cox Maze is performed on over 10,000 patients a year.
Ralph Damiano, MD, chief of cardiac surgery at Barnes-Jewish and Washington University, has advanced the procedure a great deal since 1987 when surgeon James Cox, MD, first invented the surgery at the former Barnes Hospital.
