History of UPMC Shadyside

UPMC Shadyside had its beginnings in 1866 as Homeopathic Medical and Surgical Hospital and

Dispensary in downtown Pittsburgh. In 1884 it moved to a new building, again downtown. The

same year, the hospital established western Pennsylvania’s first school of nursing.

In 1896, the hospital pioneered the first x-ray in western Pennsylvania. It was also among the

first to use Joseph Lister’s antiseptic techniques for surgery.

The hospital moved Shadyside in 1910, on a site just in front of its present location. In 1938, its

name was changed to Shadyside Hospital. The present building was erected in 1972, and it

became part of UPMC in 1997.

The hospital has a long legacy of leadership in cardiology and cardiac surgery. In the 1960s it

was an early adopter of the cardioverter to correct erratic heartbeats. In the next decades it

moved to the forefront of interventional cardiology, developing new catheters and performing

angioplasties. Shadyside Hospital had Pittsburgh’s first coronary care unit. Geriatrics also has a

strong legacy here; Shadyside Hospital boasted the nation’s first physician to be board certified

in geriatrics.

Geography and Demographics

Allegheny County, Pennsylvania

Allegheny County is an excellent example of how a county

overcame great adversity resulting from the demise of the steel

Page 4: UPMC Shadyside

industry and how it built a new future through substantial economic change. The area was once

the steelmaking capital of the world. Now only about 4 percent of the labor force is employed in

primary and fabricated metals.

The backbone of the economic base is health care, education, high technology, light

manufacturing, professional services along with retail and wholesale trade. Allegheny County is

considered an international leader in the fields of chemical, plastic and nuclear research. Nearly

1,000 high technology companies are located in the Greater Pittsburgh area.

Film makers have chosen the area for moviemaking because of varied topography, unique

architecture, strong ethnic neighborhoods, cooperative government officials, low costs and

friendly environment. The new Pittsburgh International Airport is the largest airport complex

built since the construction of the Dallas-Fort Worth airport in 1974.

The airport is dubbed the “airport of the future” because of its advanced operational functions

and built-in expansion capabilities. Employment spin-offs from the airport will generate between

18,000-20,000 new jobs over a 10 year period. Allegheny County has more than 50 hospitals,

many of which are recognized

nationally as high-quality medical

research and teaching hospitals,

including a leadership position in

organ transplantation. New home

costs are about 16 percent less

than the national average while

the older housing stock is

excellent and well maintained.

The four rivers that flow through

Allegheny County now allow

fishermen to land game fish where

20 years ago there were lifeless

bodies of water.

The soot, smog and grime

associated with the booming steel

industry are a thing of the past. The area houses many local performing groups, orchestras,

choirs, the Pittsburgh Symphony, the Ballet Theater and the Civic Light Opera. The region also

maintains more than 100 art galleries, historical landmarks and museums including the

Carnegie’s Museum of National History, Art Museum, Music Hall, Library and Science Center,

the Pittsburgh Zoo and the Pittsburgh Aviary.

There are three major sports teams in the county (Pirates, Steelers and Penguins). In the summer,

the Three Rivers Regatta draws more than 500,000 spectators. The Three Rivers Arts Festival

and the Pittsburgh Marathon are also major summer events.

Shadyside is a neighborhood in the East End of

Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States. It has

zip codes of both 15232 and 15206, and has

representation on Pittsburgh City Council by the

council member for District 8 (East Central

Neighborhoods). The nomenclature Shadyside

is drawn from the 19th century Pennsylvania

Railroad station in the area, named for its

unique shady lanes.

Shadyside is home to many of the more upscale

stores and boutiques in Pittsburgh including

Moda, Coach, Williams-Sonoma, and White House Black Market. The Shadyside Market,

owned by the Dupuis family of Baton Rouge, LA for more than 50 years, features fresh produce,

an on-site butcher, and a deli which is frequently packed by locals. Stores are located in two

corridors; one centers on Ellsworth Avenue, the other on Walnut Street.

Walnut has more stores that belong to national chains, including Gap (along with Baby Gap, Gap

Kids and Gap Body), Apple, J.Crew, American Apparel, Chico's, Victoria's Secret, Banana

Republic, Talbot’s Coach, and United Colors of Benetton. Local restaurants include Jitters,

Cappy's, Doc's, William Penn Tavern, and Pamela's.

Ellsworth tends to have smaller locally owned businesses, including Eons (a vintage store),

Gallerie Chiz (an art gallery, and beauty salons such as 5804, Capristo salon and Mikel's.

Ellsworth has a number of restaurants such as The Elbow Room, Bites and Brews, and Soba.

Ellsworth also features two of Pittsburgh’s' gay and gay friendly bars, Spin and 5801, formerly

known as New York, New York. Shadyside also features boutique Inns and Hotels like

Shadyside Inn Suites, The Inns On Negley, and Sunnyledge

Shadyside is also home to the Winchester Thurston School, as well as The Ellis School on Fifth

Avenue, Pittsburgh's only all-girl pre-K–12. Another neighborhood institution is Shadyside

Hospital, a member of the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. Additionally, Pittsburgh

Center for the Arts and Chatham University are located just across the northern edge of the

neighborhood in Squirrel Hill.

The Jam on Walnut is a summer concert series that features local and regional music concerts.

The concerts are held on the last Saturday of each summer month on the corner of Bellafonte and

Walnut Street. Proceeds from beer sales go to Cystic Fibrosis.

Since the 1920s, residential Shadyside has been home to a mix of affluent families, young

professionals, artists, students, and apartment dwellers. The residential areas of the neighborhood

include well-maintained Victorian mansions along with modern apartments and condominiums.

The neighborhood has a compact layout, which prevents most houses from having garages.

Public transportation is available via Port Authority bus system; a busway stop is conveniently

located in the neighborhood on Negley Avenue between Ellsworth and Centre avenues.

Population (s) Served

UPMC Shadyside is located in the heart of Pittsburgh where there is a rich cultural blend of

ethnic diversity represented in the mix of patients and staff. Pittsburgh had many immigrants

from Britain, Ireland, and Germany through the first century or so of its existence. Later the

nationalities of those arriving shifted to Poles, Hungarians, Serbs, Croatians, Italians, and

Russian Jews. Most emigration to the city halted at the outbreak of World War I in 1914. Since

then relatively few people have come to Pittsburgh from other countries, even though the nation

as a whole has seen a large increase in Hispanic and Asian immigration.

While foreign-born persons made up only 7.1 percent of the city’s population between 2008-

2012, Pittsburgh retains a strong ethnic character. Many neighborhoods have a clear ethnic

identity, such as Bloomfield (Italian), the South Side and Polish Hill (Polish), and Squirrel Hill

(Jewish). The eastern neighborhoods of Point Breeze, Shadyside, and Squirrel Hill are attractive

city living areas, while other sections of the city afford views of the rivers and the Golden

Triangle from houses constructed on steep slopes.

Pittsburgh’s black population began to arrive far back in the city’s history, but its biggest growth

came in the first half of the 20th century largely through migration from the South. Blacks

predominate in several areas throughout the city, the largest being Beltzhoover, the Hill,

Homewood-Brushton, and Manchester. The black community possesses a rich cultural heritage

in jazz and art, as well as having been the sponsor of the two of greatest baseball teams in the

former Negro League the Crawfords and the Homestead Grays.

In addition to general surgery, surgeons at UPMC Shadyside perform advanced procedures in

many specialties:

Cardiac surgery

Digestive disorders

Lung and thoracic disease

Neurosurgery

Oncology

Orthopedics

Urology

Vascular surgery

Robotics

Robotic surgery does not mean that a robot replaces the surgeon. It means that robotic

technology provides enhanced visualization and dexterity so that surgeons can perform many

complex procedures that would otherwise have to be performed with conventional open

incisions.

For patients, robotic surgery can mean a shorter hospital stay, less pain, less blood loss, less

scarring, and quicker recovery. Robotic surgery outcomes are consistent with those of standard

minimally invasive surgeries.

Owning the technology is the first step. It also is crucial that the hospital and its surgeons have

the expertise in using the technology. UPMC is a leader in robotic surgical technology in western

Pennsylvania. UPMC began using the da Vinci® Surgical System at UPMC Presbyterian in 2003

and moved it to UPMC Shadyside in November 2007, where it is now being used for prostate,

gynecologic, and oncology surgeries.

UPMC Shadyside has a dedicated operating room for da Vinci surgeries and a dedicated team

with specialized training and experience in robotic technology

Research at UPMC Shadyside

Cancer Research

Across the street from UPMC Shadyside, connected by the Shea Pedestrian Bridge, is Hillman

Cancer Center, headquarters for the research facilities of the University of Pittsburgh Cancer

Institute (UPCI), which works in tandem with the clinical services of UPMC Cancer

Centers. UPCI’s research programs occupy a 152,300-square-foot, three-level research pavilion

at Hillman Cancer Center; the rest of the building is devoted to clinical care for cancer patients.

Thus Hillman Cancer Center is designed to maximize collaboration among investigators, to

streamline the application of laboratory findings to patient care, and to facilitate the flow of

information about clinical experiences back to researchers for further development. With cutting-

edge research in basic science as well as clinical trials, UPCI ranks among the nation’s leaders in

Page 13: UPMC Shadyside

funding from the National Cancer Institute (NCI). UPCI-initiated clinical research has garnered

national and international recognition for the advanced treatment of melanoma, as well as brain,

prostate, lung, head and neck, ovarian, and breast cancers.

Nursing Research

UPMC Shadyside supports nursing research in an effort to deliver the highest quality patient

care. Our research efforts are focused on maintaining or improving outcomes. Research projects

that nurses have lead or contributed to are: the use of patient-administered oral pain medication

for hip replacement patients; outcomes of patients with leukemia who are at risk for sepsis using

technology for early identification; methods to reduce anxiety, depression and PTSD symptoms

in family members functioning as surrogate decision makers in the ICU; perceptions of burnout

in oncology nurses in a hospital setting; and the impact of cardiovascular and mental health

education on cardiovascular risk factors and depression.
