What Are the Arrythmia Treatment Options?
An electrophysiology study can also help determine the best arrythmia treatment option. Depending on the nature and location of the arrhythmia, treatment may include medication, implanting a defibrillator, surgery or a highly specialized EP procedure. One of the specialized electrophysiology procedures performed in the hospital’s catheterization lab is a catheter ablation. Ablation is a treatment that cauterizes (burns) cells to eliminate rhythm abnormalities in patients. Catheter ablation is an outpatient procedure that normally takes only a couple of hours to complete and has few complications. If you are having an arrythmia treatment procedure you will be contacted prior to the procedure by a member of the team who will give you detailed instructions on how to prepare.
