电生理学
Heart rhythm problems, called arrhythmias, can cause a variety of symptoms. These symptoms happen because the heart isn't beating regularly or may not be pumping blood as well as normal. Some of these symptoms include palpitations, lightheadedness, fainting, 和 shortness of breath. 最常见的心律失常类型包括心房颤动(AFib)。, 室上性心动过速(SVT)和室性心动过速(VT).
If you're experiencing arrhythmia symptoms or have been diagnosed with arrhythmia, count on the cardiac specialists at 皇冠app心血管研究所's timely, 适当的护理来诊断和治疗你的病情.
电生理学 is the branch of cardiac care that deals primarily with correcting or managing heart rhythm disorders caused by abnormal electrical activity in the heart.
在康科德医院心血管研究所, 心律缓慢的病人可能会使用起搏器. 植入除颤器是为了帮助治疗心律过快. 其他病人可能会接受一种叫做消融的治疗, where a tiny section of the heart is frozen or heated to correct an abnormal rhythm. 有些只能用药物治疗.
皇冠app的病人受益于传统的起搏器，除颤器， 和 消融治疗, 但也有更新的, more effective techniques such as implanting defibrillators that do not require wires to run to the heart 和 cryoballoon 消融以纠正心律失常.

先进的护理治疗方案使您受益
Cryoballoon消融
Cardiac ablation is a delicate technique in which electrophysiologists thread catheters into the heart 和 apply heat or cold to scar tiny areas that are triggering a patient’s abnormal heart rhythm. 射频消融术烧伤目标组织. 通过冷冻消融，专家们冷冻单个精确的组织点. Cryoballoon ablation freezes a larger area, reducing the procedure time with effective results.
导致拔牙
More 和 more cardiac patients rely on cardiac pacemakers or implanted defibrillators to keep their hearts beating normally. Each device includes wires, 或领导s, that carry electrical pulses to the heart. If they malfunction because of age or cause infections, they must be removed.
如果你需要拔铅手术, turn to 皇冠app心血管研究所 electrophysiologist Dr. 亚当Chodosh为您服务. Dr. 乔多什接受过执行这一手术的专门培训, which is performed in the operating room with a cardiac surgeon 和 team present in the rare case of complications.
WATCHMAN™AFib程序
If you have atrial fibrillation (AFib) you may be a c和idate for WATCHMAN™ — a new device offering an effective alternative to blood thinners for AFib patients.
WATCHMAN Left Atrial Appendage Closure (LAAC) is an implantable device that blocks the left atrial appendage, so blood doesn’t pool there 和 form blood clots that cause blockages or stroke. The tiny wire 和 mesh device is threaded through a blood vessel into the heart, 阻止血液进入左心耳的地方.
If you can’t take blood-thinning medication, WATCHMAN is an effective alternative. 它可以在几个方面帮助你. 如果你不能服用血液稀释剂，它可以降低中风的风险. If you do take blood thinners it can help you avoid Emergency Department visits because of uncontrolled bleeding. 更重要的是, 尽管不可能给出具体的数字, doctors know the device has saved patients who otherwise would have had a stroke. 了解更多
植入式心律转复除颤器ICD
传统上, implanted defibrillators that monitor 和 shock the heart into a normal rhythm are placed in the chest 和 require a wire, 或领导, 进入心脏. 在这个技术中, 除颤器被植入皮肤下面, 腋窝以下, 胸腔外. 它的导线向上延伸到胸骨的Top部，而不是进入心脏. 植入手术的风险较低, 专家们认为这种设备可以使用更长时间, 尤其是年轻人, 更活跃的病人.
专科诊所使您受益
心律失常的诊所
The 心律失常的诊所 at 皇冠app心脏病科 concentrates on treating patients with many different electrical issues in the heart. The most common is atrial fibrillation (AFib), an irregular, 和 often, very fast heart rate. The Clinic streamlines the process of getting patients in to see the doctor best suited to evaluate 和 treat their abnormal heart rhythm.
诊所协调员, 临床护士, evaluates patients who are referred for treatment from primary care physicians 和 advanced providers or who are have been admitted to the Hospital with new irregular heart rhythms. 根据她的评价, she arranges appointments directly with electrophysiology specialists at 皇冠app心脏病科, who correct electrical abnormalities in the heart that cause an irregular heartbeat.
设备的诊所
If you rely on an implanted device to monitor the electrical activity of your heart, you can benefit from the services available through the 设备的诊所 at 皇冠app心脏病科. The clinic offers a coordinated approach that keeps tabs on approximately 2,500 patients. About 95 percent of them are being monitored by devices that can send messages remotely. The 设备的诊所 team is comprised of specially trained nurses 和 medical assistants who coordinate your care with your cardiologist 和 electrophysiologist. The team’s work is supported by a sophisticated computer system that helps compile reports by organizing 和 storing the cardiac device transmissions 和 linking the data to a patient’s electronic medical record. Recent clinical studies have shown that a focus on remote monitoring can save lives. 远程监测也显示可以减少住院.
