The Arrhythmology and Cardiac Electrophysiology Department is active in the management of patients of any age.
In our ward are daily admitted children, teenagers and adults with cardiac rhythm disturbances.The Electrophysiology Department, directed by Professor Carlo Pappone, is on the first place in Italy and among the first in the world in the field of the catheter ablation, of the implant of cardiac devices and in the use of the most advanced technologies for the cure of the arrythmias.
In the last ten years in our electrophysiology laboratories were performed over 3000 procedures per year. Our Electrophysiology group is actively involved in the development and the validation of numerous and innovative treatments for the arhythmias.
Circumferential AblationThe poor success of pharmacologic therapy for atrial fibrillation (AF) has encouraged many investigators to explore alternative strategies (1-9).Recent randomized studies have demonstrated that ablation strategy is superior to antiarrhythmic drug therapy in patients with paroxysmal/persistent AF»
