Rhythm surgery

  • Implantation of rhythm monitors (loop/event recorders), pacemaker and defibrillator implantations (single to three-chamber systems): continuous monitoring of the implanted devices, programming and checking the indications for replacement are carried out in the cardiac surgery outpatient clinic.

  • Total endoscopic radiofrequency ablation for atrial fibrillation (OA Dr H. Gorki) is available for the treatment of all stages of atrial fibrillation using epicardial ablation procedures to regularise the excitation process in the ventricles. The ablation procedure can also be performed in combination with mitral or aortic valve surgery or bypass surgery. The application of radiofrequency energy is currently a frequently used therapeutic procedure.
