Temple electrophysiologists specialize in treating patients with all types of cardiac rhythm and signaling problems. These include:
- Palpitations
- Syncope (aka fainting)
- Premature atrial or ventricular beats (PACs or PVCs)
- Tachycardias including life-threatening ventricular tachycardia and fibrillation
- Atrial fibrillation (AF)
- Atrial flutter
- Cardiomyopathies, including ischemic, hypertrophic, postpartum, inherited and other non-ischemic cardiomyopathies
- Long and short QT syndrome
- Brugada syndrome
- Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia (ARVD)
- Myotonic dystrophy and other neuromuscular conditions with cardiac involvement
- Heart electrical abnormalities associated with sarcoidosis, heart transplantation and congenital heart disease
- Bradycardia and sinus node dysfunction
- Atrioventricular (AV) block (aka heart block)
- ICD/pacemaker technical issues such as lead fractures/malfunctions and industry recalls
- Congestive heart failure with cardiac dyssynchrony
- Arrhythmias after heart transplantation
- Stroke related to atrial fibrillation
- Survivors of sudden cardiac arrest
