Advancements in Cardiac Electrophysiology and Pacing Therapies

Cardiac electrophysiology and pacing is an exciting field that has undergone tremendous changes in the last two decades. New techniques have made RF ablation simpler and safer for patients. At Kauvery Hospital, we have Kauvery Heart Rhythm Services which is an internationally acclaimed team of cardiac scientists, cardio physiologists, physician assistants, cardiology doctors, and more. Here are some state-of-the-art equipment that are used by them for the care of the patients.

High-density mapping catheter

This is the most commonly used catheter in India. It is also popularly known as the HD grid. It has multiple electrodes that can quickly create a geometry of the heart and help study the electrical points in different parts of the heart at an accurate pace. It is used for complex ventricular tachycardia mapping.

Leadless pacemaker

It is the world’s smallest pacemaker and it is simply the size of a coin. The advantage of the size is that it can be taken into the heart through the right or left side groin, without making an incision.There are also no wires connected to the battery.

Contact force open ablation irrigation catheter

This catheter can flex in both directions and most importantly can sense the amount of force applied at the tip.This makes it greatly useful while ablating complex arrhythmia circuits, especially in the left atrium.
