Shanghai Chest Hospital (Template:Zh) is the first hospital in China specializing in cardiovascular systems, lung, esophagus, trachea and mediastinum.

History

Founded in Shanghai in 1866, St. Luke's Hospital (Template:Zh) was merged with St. Elizabeth's Hospital (Template:Zh) in 1942 to form St. Luke's & St. Elizabeth's Hospital (or Hongren Hospital, Template:Zh). Both hospitals were sponsored by the American Episcopal Church.[1]

Hongren Hospital was affiliated to the Shanghai Second Medical College in 1954. It was reorganised as Shanghai Chest Hospital in 1957.[2] Huang Jiasi served as the first president, and the first vice-presidents were Lan Xichun and Gu Kaishi. In 1957, it was designated by Ministry of Health as a national training center for cadio-vascular and chest surgery. In 1994, it was designated Grade 3, Class A hospital. In 2004, it became Shanghai Red Cross Chest Hospital. Since 2005, it has been affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University.
