Reid Health first in the region to treat heart failure patients using breakthrough CCM therapy

June 8, 2023

Reid Health is among the first hospitals in Indiana and the only health system in East Central Indiana and West Central Ohio to use CCMTM therapy — delivered by the Optimizer® system — to treat patients suffering from heart failure.

The innovative therapy is the first of its kind intended to improve the contraction of the heart, allowing more oxygen-rich blood to reach the body. CCM therapy delivers precisely timed electrical pulses to the heart that are intended to improve the heart’s ability to contract and can be used in conjunction with medications and other heart failure therapies.
