Patient care
“Doctor-researcher-patient” organization integrated into University Hospital of Bordeaux
The expertise of Liryc’s medical and paramedical teams is practiced within a perfectly integrated organization at the Haut-Lévêque Cardiological Hospital, University Hospital of Bordeaux. No patient is directly cared for in the Liryc research building, which does not prevent the creation of favourable conditions to go even further and faster in a “doctor-researcher-patient” organization.
Daily clinical observation inspires the research and innovation program to analyse the causes and mechanisms of diseases and to encourage the discovery of new diagnostics and new treatments.

Affiliated medical teams closely linked to Liryc
Clinical services provide essential expertise for the diagnosis and care of patients with heart rhythm disorders. They represent both the starting point and the culmination of research.
The expertise of the medical and paramedical teams ensures all stages of patient care:
- A shared consultation platform, in close connection with non-invasive exploration centres (ultrasound, electrocardiography, cardiac stress tests, Holter monitor, etc.)
- A reception service for cardiological emergencies and a cardiological intensive care unit.
- An interventional cardiology technical platform in Haut-Lévêque (seven hemodynamic and electrophysiology rooms), as well as an invasive exploration area in Saint-André.
- Surgical and cardiothoracic operating theatres, which co-exist with intensive care and continuous monitoring units.
