Research

Mayo Clinic is a pioneer in fetal surgery advances, allowing for earlier intervention when congenital birth problems are diagnosed.

A key example is a clinical trial for prenatal surgery to promote lung growth before babies are born. The goal is to develop regenerative approaches to improve lung development and outcomes.

Mayo experts continue to actively study how to lower the risks of fetal surgery, improve surgical approaches, and improve outcomes for both mothers and children.

Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH)

Research: It's all about patients

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Joseph Sirven, M.D., Professor of Neurology, Mayo Clinic: Mayo's mission is about the patient. The patient comes first. So the mission and research here is to advance how we can best help the patient, how to make sure the patient comes first in care. So in many ways, it's a cycle. It can start with as simple as an idea worked on in a laboratory, brought to the patient bedside, and if everything goes right — and let's say it's helpful or beneficial — then brought on as a standard approach. And I think that is one of the unique characteristics of Mayo's approach to research — that patient-centeredness — that really helps to put it in its own spotlight.
