Teamwork key to Cardiff cardiac unit success, surgeon says

A cardiac unit in a Cardiff hospital has been rated among the best in the UK for surgery survival rates.

Figures from the Society for Cardiothoracic Surgery showed the unit at University Hospital of Wales had a survival rate of more than 98%.

It was placed with Southampton and Papworth as the three best-performing.

Govinda Shetty, a surgeon at UHW, said teamwork and organisation was key to success.
