Atrial fibrillation (AFib) is one of the most common heart rhythm disorders affecting millions of people worldwide. It occurs when the upper chambers of the heart (atria) beat irregularly, causing a chaotic rhythm that can lead to symptoms like palpitations, dizziness, fatigue, and shortness of breath. Left untreated, AFib can also increase the risk of stroke and heart failure. While medications can help manage symptoms, Atrial Fibrillation ablation has emerged as one of the most effective long-term treatments for restoring normal heart rhythm. In this article, we’ll explore how this advanced cardiac procedure works, its long-term effectiveness, potential risks, and why more patients are turning to expert centers like The Heartae for lasting heart rhythm control. Understanding Atrial Fibrillation and Its Impact Before diving into the treatment, it’s important to understand how AFib affects the heart. Normally, the heart’s electrical system coordinates each beat, ensuring smooth...

Premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) are extra heartbeats that originate in the ventricles, the lower chambers of the heart. While occasional PVCs are common and often harmless, frequent or symptomatic PVCs can cause palpitations, fatigue, dizziness, or even lead to more serious heart rhythm problems. For patients experiencing persistent symptoms, PVC ablation has emerged as an effective treatment option. At The Heartae, patients in the UAE can access expert care and advanced technology to safely undergo this procedure. Understanding PVC Ablation PVC ablation is a minimally invasive cardiac procedure that targets the specific area in the heart responsible for abnormal electrical signals causing PVCs. By using a catheter inserted through a vein or artery, electrophysiologists can identify and destroy the tissue triggering irregular heartbeats. This restoration of normal rhythm helps relieve symptoms and improves overall heart function. The procedure is performed under local...

The human heart functions as the body’s natural pump, beating in a rhythmic pattern to circulate blood and oxygen. However, when this rhythm becomes irregular—either too fast, too slow, or erratic—it can lead to serious health issues, including fatigue, dizziness, shortness of breath, and in some cases, life-threatening complications. This is where pacemaker surgery plays a crucial role. Pacemaker surgery is a medical procedure designed to implant a small, battery-powered device called a pacemaker under the skin, typically near the collarbone. The device helps control abnormal heart rhythms (arrhythmias) by sending electrical impulses to prompt the heart to beat at a normal rate. Over the decades, advancements in cardiac technology have made pacemaker surgery highly reliable, minimally invasive, and life-changing for countless heart patients. What Is a Pacemaker and How Does It Work? A pacemaker is a compact electronic device that monitors and regulates the electrical signals t...

Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome is a heart rhythm disorder that can cause episodes of rapid heartbeat (tachycardia). Though it can sound alarming, the condition is treatable, and with proper diagnosis and management, most people can lead completely normal lives. The key to effective WPW syndrome treatment lies in timely diagnosis, accurate evaluation, and the right medical intervention plan tailored to each patient’s needs. In this article, we’ll explore how doctors diagnose WPW syndrome, what tests are performed, and the various treatment options that can help restore a healthy heart rhythm. Understanding WPW Syndrome WPW syndrome occurs when there is an extra electrical pathway connecting the atria (upper chambers of the heart) and the ventricles (lower chambers). Normally, electrical signals travel through a single pathway—the atrioventricular (AV) node—to control heartbeats in a coordinated way. In WPW syndrome, the extra pathway allows electrical impulses to bypass the...
