On February 17, the inauguration and ribbon-cutting ceremony of the new Arrhythmia Clinic at ABC Medical Center took place.
The opening of a specialized arrhythmia clinic represents a crucial advancement in cardiovascular care, as it enables a comprehensive approach for all patients in one location, with top-level specialists in the diagnosis and treatment of this medical condition. This significantly improves patient outcomes, reduces complications, and optimizes the use of cutting-edge medical technology.
The ribbon-cutting ceremony was attended by Ing. José María Zubiría Maqueo, General Director of ABC Medical Center; Dr. Juvenal Franco Granillo, Medical Vice President; Dr. Patricia Concha, Director of Operations, Observatorio Campus; Dr. Enrique Vallejo Venegas, Director of the Cardiovascular Service Line; Dr. Santiago Nava Townsend, Director of Electrophysiology at ABC Medical Center; Dr. Alejandro Díaz Hernández, Director of Service Lines; Dr. Marco Antonio Téliz, Deputy Medical Director at Observatorio Campus; Dr. Madeleine Marcué, Manager of the Cardiovascular Service Line; and Lic. Cecilia Chávez Domínguez, Deputy Administrative Director at Observatorio Campus.
Arrhythmias are abnormalities in heart rhythm that may manifest as either abnormally fast or slow heartbeats. In some cases, they can be life-threatening if not diagnosed or treated on time.
For evaluation and diagnosis, the clinic offers Holter ECG monitoring and electrocardiograms. Among the featured treatments are cardioversion, which restores normal heart rhythm; catheter ablation, which removes the small areas of the heart causing the irregular rhythm; and pacemakers, which are indicated for patients with more severe arrhythmias.
The clinic also features state-of-the-art equipment, including 3D electro-anatomical mapping and CATH-LABs—specialized rooms for cardiovascular interventional procedures.
The opening of the Arrhythmia Clinic marks a new milestone in the care of patients with heart conditions, aimed at improving their health and offering a better quality of life.
For your convenience, the Arrhythmia Clinic is located in Office 15, 2nd Floor, Central Tower at the Observatorio Campus. Hours of operation are Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., with the last appointment at 4:00 p.m.
