Cardiac Electro Physiology

Overview

The Cardiac Electrophysiology Unit is a specialized division within the Cardiology Department that focuses on diagnosing and treating the electrical activities and rhythm disorders of the heart (arrhythmias). It plays a vital role in managing patients with atrial fibrillation, ventricular tachycardia, bradyarrhythmias, and other complex rhythm disturbances. With advanced mapping systems, interventional expertise, and device therapies, the EP unit improves outcomes and enhances quality of life for cardiac patients.
