Arrhythmia/Heart Rhythm
Comprehensive Electrophysiology Services in New Hampshire
Cardiovascular Specialists of New England (CSNE) is a leader in the treatment of arrhythmias or heart rhythm abnormalities. These conditions cause the heart to beat abnormally, negatively impacting its function. Electrophysiology is the subspecialty of cardiology that focuses on the heart’s electrical activity. Our electrophysiology team uses the latest cutting-edge technology, such as Pulsed Field Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation. This treatment significantly shortens the procedure length and reduces the risk to surrounding heart tissues. We are also experts at Left Atrial Appendage (LAA) Closure, a procedure that reduces stroke risk in patients with Atrial Fibrillation who cannot take a blood thinner medication long term.
Diagnostic Testing for Arrhythmia, Such as Atrial Fibrillation
Running the appropriate diagnostic tests on your heart and cardiovascular system is crucial to determining what is causing your arrhythmia. Our board-certified electrophysiologists can run specialized testing based on your symptoms. We will use one or more of the following electrophysiological tests to advance your heart care:
- Electrocardiogram (ECG/EKG)
- Holter Monitor
- Mobile Cardiac Outpatient Telemetry (MCOT)
- Implantable loop recorder
World-Class Electrophysiology Treatments
Our electrophysiology treatments include:
Using electrical shocks to reset your heart's rhythm back to normal.
Delivering energy to the heart tissue via catheters to abolish abnormal cardiac signals in order to treat fast heart rhythms.
Atrial fibrillation treatment significantly shortens the procedure length and reduces the risk to surrounding heart tissues.
An atrial fibrillation procedure that uses ablation inside and outside the heart to keep it beating normally.
A small device implanted in your chest that sends electrical signals to make sure your heart beats at the right pace. This can be implanted via the chest (transvenous pacemaker) or via the groin (leadless pacemaker)
A specialized pacemaker that coordinates the lower left and right heart chambers, reducing heart failure.
A procedure to lower the risk of stroke for patients with an irregular heartbeat condition called atrial fibrillation.
A study of your heart's electrical activity to diagnose and treat abnormal heart rhythms.
A device that provides an electrical shock for the treatment of life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias, such as ventricular tachycardia.
Cardiac Device Clinic
Our board-certified heart rhythm physicians, nurses, and technicians at Cardiovascular Specialists of New England (CSNE) work as a team to make sure your pacemaker, implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD), cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) for heart failure, or other rhythm monitoring device is working efficiently. We evaluate it closely during office visits or remote transmissions, to optimize device function and longevity. You can trust CSNE to use the most specialized equipment to enhance your cardiac device function.
