The donations will establish the Haslam Family Section for Cardiovascular Genetics, according to a Nov. 18 news release from the health system.
It will also fund genetic testing for relatives of Cleveland Clinic patients diagnosed with inherited heart conditions.
The gifts also created the Haslam Family Endowed Chair in Cardiovascular Medicine, held by Milind Desai, MD, director of Cleveland Clinic’s Hyperthropic Cardiomyopathy Center.
Cardiovascular genetics focuses on inherited conditions such as cardiomyopathy, vascular disease and heart failure. The Haslam Family Section, located at the Sydell and Arnold Miller Heart, Vascular and Thoracic Institute, will enable physicians to use genetic patient data to discover new genetic markers in cardiovascular diseases.
The Bailey-Haslam family members behind the donations are Natalie and Jim Haslam, Dee and Jimmy Haslam, Crissy and Bill Haslam, and Ann Haslam-Bailey and Steve Bailey. Cleveland Clinic physicians saved Ms. Haslam-Bailey’s life when she had a full aortic dissection a decade ago, she said in the release.
