心律失常中心

Welcome to the Arrhythmia Center

If your heart has a rhythm disorder, you may be at increased risk for stroke, heart failure and other serious complications. Our heart specialists at the Emory Arrhythmia Center, known as Electrophysiologists, offer advanced treatment for atrial fibrillation (A-fib) and heart arrhythmias. We are leaders in cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) and cardiac ablation, the most commontreatments for arrhythmia.

专业的实验室和设备

Our specialized electrophysiology (EP) labs have advanced capabilities that include three-dimensional mapping systems. This gives us greater accuracy for determining where an arrhythmia is coming from, what medicines might work best for you and if we should do a catheter ablation.

虽然起搏器和除颤器被设计为身体的永久部件，但偶尔必须删除引线，因为它们已被感染或者它们无法正常工作。我们使用适量激光系统进行此过程。这种铅脱模的新方法非常有效，我们的患者体验最小的不适和短暂的恢复期。

Leading Clinical Research

Through ongoing research, treatment options for atrial fibrillation (A-fib, AF) and atrial flutter (a-flutter) will continue to improve. By leading clinical trial research, our doctors are helping to guide the search for new treatments and technologies. We are the only center in Georgia participating in a trial that provides alternatives to blood thinners for preventing strokes in patients with A-fib. We also have ongoing clinical trials of new pacemakers, defibrillators, ablation catheters, as well as new ways to use existing devices to help patients.
