Atrial Fibrillation Treatment in Chennai – Advanced AFib Care to Restore Your Heart’s Rhythm

Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is the most common type of heart rhythm disorder (arrhythmia), where the upper chambers of the heart (atria) beat irregularly and out-of-sync with the lower chambers. It affects 1.5 to 2% of the general population in India, and the prevalence increases with age—one in five senior citizens can have AF. This condition can lead to poor blood circulation, fatigue, palpitations, shortness of breath, and significantly increases the risk of stroke and heart failure. For those experiencing these symptoms, Atrial Fibrillation Treatment in Chennai offers effective solutions, and expert-led AFib treatment Chennai can help manage the condition and reduce complications.

What is Atrial Fibrillation?

In a healthy heart, electrical impulses help the atria and ventricles beat in a coordinated way. In atrial fibrillation, these impulses become chaotic, causing the atria to quiver instead of contracting effectively. This results in an irregular and often rapid heart rate, which may come and go or persist for longer periods. If you experience these symptoms, seeking Atrial Fibrillation Treatment in Chennai can help restore normal heart rhythm and reduce associated health risks.

Common Symptoms Requiring AFib Treatment in Chennai

Some individuals may have no noticeable symptoms, making diagnosis through an ECG or HOLTER monitor essential for those at risk.

AFib Treatment in Chennai Options for Heart Rhythm

At our center, we offer state-of-the-art interventional treatments that go beyond medication, focusing on correcting the source of the arrhythmia:

Catheter Ablation Treatment

Catheter ablation is a minimally invasive non-surgical procedure, that safely targets the areas of the heart generating irregular electrical signals. It is performed in a specialized Electrophysiology Lab (EP Lab) using 3D mapping technology to precisely identify and treat problem areas.

Why Consider Ablation for AF?

Pulmonary Vein Isolation (PVI)

The majority of AF triggers originate from the pulmonary veins, which carry blood from the lungs to the heart. Pulmonary Vein Isolation (PVI) is a specific form of ablation that electrically isolates these veins from the rest of the atrium, preventing abnormal signals from spreading. PVI is considered the gold standard for treating paroxysmal (intermittent) atrial fibrillation and has proven success in improving long-term heart rhythm stability.

How PVI Works:

FAQ's
Most Popular Questions

Early in the course of atrial fibrillation prevents progression to advanced stages of AF. Example is any patient with 3-5 repeated episodes of ‘paroxysmal’ atrial fibrillation despite medications. Discuss with your doctor if you would benefit from atrial fibrillation ablation procedure, as there are other factors that also determine success of the procedure.

Usually one day, however this can be variable, depending on the patient’s recovery.

Yes. PVI is a well-established, safe, and highly effective procedure, especially when performed by experienced electrophysiologists. Risk of complications like stroke, pericardial effusion and open-heart surgery are minor (around 5%) and vary among individuals and need to be discussed with the doctor.

While not always a cure, ablation significantly reduces AF symptoms. Goal of AF ablation is reduce recurrences and thereby prevent progression to advanced stages of atrial fibrillation. Many patients stay AF-free long term, especially after PVI. There is significant improvement in the quality of life, as reported by the patients.

Most patients recover within 12 hours, though full heart rhythm stabilization may take a few weeks.
