Below, you can find answers to the questions most frequently asked by our patients about cardiology, heart rhythm disorders, and interventional treatments.
Atrial fibrillation is a heart rhythm disorder that can be managed with medication and, in suitable patients, catheter ablation. The treatment plan is determined based on the patient’s age, symptoms, coexisting medical conditions, and the characteristics of the arrhythmia.
Most patients who receive a pacemaker can return to their daily activities after a short recovery period. Regular follow-up visits and adherence to the physician’s recommendations help ensure the device continues to function safely over the long term.
Coronary angiography and stent placement are commonly performed interventional procedures today. As with any medical procedure, certain risks may be involved; however, the patient’s condition is carefully evaluated beforehand to determine the most appropriate treatment plan.
Some smartwatches and wearable devices with ECG capabilities may help detect certain heart rhythm disorders, particularly atrial fibrillation, at an early stage. However, data obtained from these devices should always be evaluated by a cardiologist.
