OSF Saint Francis owns the Children's Hospital of Illinois (though the Hospital has its own President), the OSF Saint Francis Heart Hospital, the Illinois Neurological Institute, and the OSF Saint Francis Medical Center College of Nursing, which are all located either in or near the Medical Center. The hospital is a clinical training hospital for many medical students, interns, residents, and fellows of the Peoria campus of the University of Illinois College of Medicine.〔http://www.childrenshospitalofil.org/about/default.htm〕〔http://www.sfmccon.edu/about/history.html〕〔https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=osf+saint+francis+medical+center&tbm=nws〕〔http://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&q=osf+saint+francis+medical+center&btnG=&as_sdt=1%2C14&as_sdtp=〕 It is the largest Level I trauma center for adults and children between the Chicago and Rockford metropolitan areas and the St. Louis metropolitan area. It is the fourth largest hospital in all of Illinois.〔http://www.pjstar.com/news/x459327007/Hospitals-share-good-news-at-community-forum〕 The hospital offers adult and pediatric renal transplantation and adult pancreatic transplantation; generally, adult and pediatric cardiac transplantation cases are referred to tertiary care academic medical transplantation centers in Chicago. The hospital offers intermediate burn care services for children and adults, and if need be, can transfer more severe cases to a burn unit in Springfield, Illinois, and less commonly, to Chicago or St. Louis. The hospital made national and international headlines in the health care field on April 9, 2013, when a toddler, Hannah Warren, about 3, from South Korea (born to a Canadian father and South Korean mother) who was born without a trachea (a windpipe) received an artificial trachea that incorporated, with the plastic, her own living stem cells (the adult type), in the first bio-engineered transplant on a child in the U.S. and the first bio-engineered trachea transplant in the world. It is the first stem cell procedure of any kind at the Catholic medical center. The major 11-hour surgical procedure was led by Dr. Paolo Macchiarini of Sweden's Karolinska Institute, along with top surgical and medical officials from OSF.〔http://www.pjstar.com/news/x1213307415/Toddler-youngest-in-world-to-get-lab-made-windpipe-in-Peoria-operation〕 However, she died three months later from complications. ==Awards== In 2000, the Center was listed among the "Most Wired Hospitals and Health Systems" by ''Hospitals & Health Networks'', an indicator of the degree to which information technology was used in the Center. The Center received a Lantern Award in 2013 for nursing care in the emergency department.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/2013-lantern-award-recipients-nine-us-emergency-departments-recognized-by-emergency-nurses-association-for-supporting-excellence-in-nursing-practice-providing-exceptional-care-218728191.html )〕 The Center is also the #1 hospital in the state of Illinois for organ recovery. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「OSF Saint Francis Medical Center」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
