Electrophysiology

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on

Electrophysiology

Electrophysiology care that helps you feel steady again.

If your heart feels like it’s racing, fluttering or skipping beats, it can be unsettling. And sometimes scary. You may wonder if it’s something minor or a sign of a more serious issue.

At Genesis, we help you understand what’s happening and guide you toward the right treatment so you can feel confident in your heart health.

Shaun Bhatty, M.D., Discusses Atrial Fibrillation

When something doesn’t feel right

Heart rhythm issues (called arrhythmias) can happen in otherwise healthy hearts. In some cases, they’re harmless. In others, they may increase your risk for more serious conditions like heart disease or stroke.

That uncertainty can make it hard to know what to do next. That’s where specialized testing and expert care make a difference.

Getting clear answers

We use advanced testing, including electrophysiology (EP) studies, to understand exactly what’s causing your symptoms. This allows us to identify the type and severity of your heart rhythm issue and recommend the most effective path forward.

Conditions we commonly treat

One of the most common rhythm conditions is atrial fibrillation (A-Fib), where the upper chambers of your heart beat out of sync. This can lead to symptoms like:

  • Irregular or rapid heartbeat

  • Fatigue or weakness

  • Shortness of breath

  • Lightheadedness

You don’t have to manage these symptoms on your own.

Treatment options designed around you

Your care plan is built around your specific condition, lifestyle and goals. Depending on your needs, treatment may include:

  • Medications to regulate your heart rhythm

  • Devices that help maintain a steady heartbeat

  • Minimally invasive procedures, such as catheter ablation

Our team will walk you through each option so you can make informed decisions with confidence.

Feel more in control of your heart health

When you understand what’s happening and have a clear plan, you can move forward with greater peace of mind. Our goal is to help you feel better, reduce your risks and get back to living your life without constant worry about your heart.

Conditions we treat

The most common type of arrhythmia is atrial fibrillation (A-Fib) and is the result of the top portion or atria of the heart beating out of rhythm. An electrophysiology (EP) study is used to diagnosis the type and severity of arrhythmias.

We treat a variety of conditions for patients including:
  • Arrhythmias

  • Atrial Fibrillation (A-Fib)

  • Bradycardia

  • Long QT syndrome

  • Sudden cardiac arrest

  • Supraventricular tachycardia

  • Tachycardia

  • Ventricular fibrillation

  • Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome

Treatments and procedures

Treatment can involve many different therapies from medications, to devices to control your heart beat, to catheter based procedures called ablations. Genesis treatments, procedures and device implantations include:

  • Biventricular devices

  • Cardiac device monitoring · Catheter ablation for Atrial Fibrillation (A-Fib)

  • Catheter ablation for fast heart rate (Tachycardia)

  • Defibrillators

  • Device implants

  • Electrical cardioversion for fast heart rate (Fibrillation)

  • Electrical cardioversion for Atrial Fibrillation (A-Fib)

  • Implantable Cardiac Defibrillator (ICD)

  • Laboratory tests

  • Lead extractions

  • Left atrial appendage closure

  • Medication adjustments

  • Pacemaker for Bradycardia (slow heartbeat)

  • Pacemaker for heart failure

Structural Heart

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on

Structural Heart

When you need advanced care for complex heart conditions, you want a team you can trust. The Structural Heart Program at Genesis is led by fellowship-trained physicians who are recognized for their expertise. Our team brings years of specialized training and experience with the latest procedures and technologies, so you receive high-quality care close to home in Southeastern Ohio.

Conditions we treat

Structural heart disease may be present at birth, or it can develop later in life. We use life-changing treatments to repair damaged heart valves, walls, muscle or tissue. Addressing structural heart issues can reduce symptoms such as weakness and shortness of breath, which not only can improve your quality of life, but also help prolong it.

We treat a variety of conditions for patients including:

  • Aortic stenosis - Is the stiffening or narrowing of the aortic valve. Calcium build up is the most common cause. Aortic stenosis usually affects elderly patients with other medical risk factors which makes them better candidates for Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR).
  • Mitral valve regurgitation - Is a condition in which the heart's mitral valve doesn't close tightly, which allows blood to flow backward in the heart.
  • Patent Foramen Ovale (PFO) - Occurs when patients are diagnosed with an opening, or hole, in the heart that did not close after birth. This birth defect can cause problems later in life, including stroke, and affect the control of blood flow between heart chambers.

Treatments and procedures

Genesis is the only hospital in the region performing innovative and minimally-invasive procedures for cardiac care. These new technologies and techniques allow our highly-skilled physicians to care for your heart while reducing downtime, scarring and pain after a procedure:

  • MitraClip™ - Is a minimally invasive procedure that can reduce the risk of heart failure and stroke for patients with mitral valve regurgitation. Our physicians use a tube to insert the MitraClip implant through a vein in your upper leg and guide it to your heart, where it is attached to your mitral valve to help it close properly and restore normal blood flow.
  • Patent Foramen Ovale (PFO) closure - The procedure to close a hole in the heart, not detected at birth, takes a much different route than in the past when open-heart surgery was required to correct the opening. Our physicians use a catheter to enter blood vessels to reach the heart. Once there, the catheter guides a device called an occluder to the opening, allowing it to expand and close the hole.
  • Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) - Uses advanced imaging and small catheters to replace diseased heart valves. Instead of a large incision to the chest, physicians performing TAVR use a flexible tube to guide a new valve through a blood vessel to the heart. TAVR is minimally invasive, meaning patients have less pain and experience faster recovery times – usually needing just an overnight stay in the hospital.
  • Transcatheter Mitral Valve Replacement (MVR)
  • Left Atrial Appendage Closure - This implant can reduce the risk of stroke and eliminate blood thinners for patients with atrial fibrillation (AFib) not caused by a heart valve problem. During a one-time, minimally invasive procedure, WATCHMAN is inserted through a small tube from a blood vessel in the leg to the heart where it closes the left atrial appendage. Patients typically return home the next day and may be able to stop blood thinners in 6 months.
Abstract

When you need advanced care for complex heart conditions, you want a team you can trust. The Structural Heart Program at Genesis is led by fellowship-trained physicians who are recognized for their expertise. Our team brings years of specialized training and experience with the latest procedures and technologies, so you receive high-quality care close to home in Southeastern Ohio.

      12-lead EKG saves lives

      Before you arrive at our Emergency Department (ED) by ambulance, our ED doctors and cardiac team already have a plan to stop your heart attack. That’s because Genesis Hospital, Genesis Community Ambulance and the local EMS community have partnered to equip Emergency Medical Services (EMS) vehicles with 12-lead EKG monitors so they can determine if you are having a heart attack before arriving at the hospital. This lead time enables the hospital’s heart team to be ready to intervene as soon as you arrive. They can literally stop a heart attack in its tracks.

      We can help you manage conditions that can lead to serious heart problems. These include high cholesterol, diabetes, high blood pressure and Metabolic Syndrome, which is a group of health problems that include excess fat around the waist, elevated blood pressure and blood sugar, high triglycerides and low HDL cholesterol.

      When your heart is unable to properly pump the blood your body needs, you are suffering from heart failure. Our specialists will help you manage and treat your condition with lifestyle changes, medicines and when necessary, pacemakers and defibrillators.

      There are many types of arrhythmias (irregular heartbeats) that range from minor to life-threatening. Our team of electrophysiologists will evaluate the severity of your irregular heartbeat and recommend appropriate treatments based on your individual need.

      This narrowing or blockage of the arteries or veins in your legs, arms or torso is caused by plaque buildup. From evaluation and diagnosis through lifestyle changes and treatments, which may include drug therapy or a minimally invasive procedure, our general and interventional cardiologists will provide guidance to help you minimize the effects of these conditions.
