A tiny implanted monitor that watches every heartbeat for up to four years - catching the rhythm problems short-term monitors miss.
Explore the specialist heart treatments and procedures we provide.
Cardioversion
A brief, planned procedure that resets atrial fibrillation or flutter back to normal rhythm with a carefully controlled electrical impulse.
Catheter ablation
Keyhole treatment for AF, flutter, SVT and VT that targets the abnormal rhythm at its source - often curing it altogether.
Coronary angioplasty & stenting
A keyhole procedure to open narrowed coronary arteries, relieve angina and restore healthy blood flow to the heart muscle.
Implantable defibrillator (ICD)
A small implanted device that continuously guards against life-threatening heart rhythms - treating them within seconds.
Pacemaker implantation
The definitive treatment for slow heart rhythms, blackouts and heart block - and the basis of resynchronisation therapy for heart failure.
