The Healing Heart Series is
a set of four video tapes that guides and educates patients and their families
about open heart surgery and post-operative recovery.
Each program is hosted by narrators from the Screen Actors Guild. The
videos were developed as a result of joint discussions between cardiovascular
surgeons and the Cinnabar staff. The
goal was to create a set of brief but comprehensive presentations that would
standardize the information patients received regarding heart surgery.

The pre-operative videos cover such
topics as ‘risk factors associated with heart disease’, animated sequences
of the operative procedures, the patient in ICU and telemetry, and blood bank
donations. The post operative recovery video is particularly uplifting. It
includes testimonials from fully recovered patients who’s valuable insights
are used to reinforce discussion issues such has dietary needs, care of wounds,
physical exercise, post-operative recovery.
