A Brief Overview

Children's Hospital of Philadelphia is seeking a Clinical Research Nurse Coordinator for their Comprehensive Vascular Anomalies Program.

The Comprehensive Vascular Anomalies Program (CVAP) is an interdisciplinary group of physicians, support staff and administrative staff who together collaborate to improve the outcomes for patients with vascular anomalies (VA). VAs encompass a diverse group of diagnoses including tumors and malformations. Recently, significant research in the molecular causes of these disorders has expanded therapeutic treatment options and other innovative diagnostic techniques for disease assessment and drug delivery.

The program is composed of experts in the field of VAs including surgeons (plastic, orthopedic, ENT, neurosurgery, urology, fetal, and general surgery), dermatology, hematology, oncology, genetics, radiology (interventional, diagnostic), ophthalmology, pulmonary, endocrinology, gastroenterology and infectious disease. Every specialist has a role in treating vascular anomaly patients. Support staff includes APPs, RNs, administrative staff, PT, OT, social work and psychology.  

Our CVAP program has pioneered discovery in the genomics of VAs. Our goal is to establish CHOP CVAP as a premier interdisciplinary program in VAs. We will do this by establishing a world-class clinical, translational and basic science program to improve outcomes of patients of all ages with VAs.

The CVAP Program is linked to the Center for Applied Genomics (CAG) and the CVAP portfolio already includes national registries, industry sponsored protocols, investigator-initiated protocols, a managed access protocol, and single INDs.
