$1 Million Gift Supports State-of-the-Art Surgical Technology

A generous $1 million donation is supporting a new, state-of-the-art piece of medical equipment for cardiac patients at Nicklaus Children’s Hospital. The technology was possible because of the generosity of South Florida residents Howard and Debbie Belford, whose granddaughter had once received live-saving surgery at the hospital. (Watch video)
The new Spectrum Medical Quantum Heart Lung Machine helps doctors anticipate and prevent any complications in real-time during pediatric heart surgery. The equipment is designed to detect any changes during the surgery, react within a split second, and intervene to prevent potential serious complications. This gives the Nicklaus Children’s surgical team an extra edge to ensure patients undergoing surgery have the best outcomes.
