Premature Ventricular Contractions (PVCs) are extra heartbeats originating from the heart’s ventricles, causing a feeling of a “flutter” or a “skipped beat” in the chest. While occasional PVCs can be harmless, frequent PVCs can lead to more severe heart rhythm problems. PVC Ablation is a procedure designed to target and eliminate the areas causing these extra beats. With the expertise of professionals like Dr. Noori, PVC Ablation offers an effective solution to regulate the heart’s rhythm and improve overall cardiac health.

Got questions about PVC Ablation?
PVCs are extra heartbeats from the ventricles. While occasional PVCs can be harmless, frequent ones can lead to more severe heart rhythm problems.
It’s a minimally invasive procedure where catheters are guided to the heart to deliver energy (like radiofrequency) to the problematic tissue, correcting the irregular beats.
As with any procedure, there are risks, but they are minimal when performed by experienced professionals. It’s essential to discuss potential risks and benefits with your cardiologist.
Consultation:
Engage with Dr. Noori to discuss your PVC condition, understand its implications, and explore the benefits of PVC Ablation.
Pre-Procedure Assessment:
Undergo necessary tests to determine the severity and cause of your PVCs.
Procedure Preparation:
No food or water at least 8 hours before the procedure, stop any blood thinners 24 hours in advance, and ensure you wear comfortable clothing.
Recovery:
Receive guidance on post-procedure care, potential lifestyle changes, and any necessary adjustments to your medications.
Follow-Up:
Regular check-ups with Dr. Noori to monitor heart rhythm and ensure the continued success of the procedure.
