The Rutgers Health Arrhythmia Diagnosis and Treatment program deals with heart arrhythmias (irregular heart rhythms) and related disorders. Conditions we evaluate and treat include:

• Atrial fibrillation
• Atrial flutter
• Fainting
• Inherited arrhythmias
  • Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC)
  • Brugada syndrome
  • Long QT syndrome
• Premature atrial contractions
• Premature ventricular contractions
• Sinus node dysfunction
• Supraventricular tachycardia
• Wolf-Parkinson-White syndrome
• Ventricular fibrillation
• Ventricular tachycardia

We also provide the following services:

• Cardioversion (electric shocks to the heart through electrodes on the chest to restore normal heart rhythm)
• Catheter ablation (a procedure that can correct heart rhythm problems) including epicardial ablations
• Device placement for left atrial appendage occlusion to reduce stroke risk
• Electrocardiography (recording electrical charges in the heart)
• Laser lead extractions
• Pacemaker and defibrillator placement, including remote monitoring and device evaluation
• Tilt table testing (to determine why there may be a decrease in oxygen reaching the brain)

Physicians who serve the Rutgers Health Arrhythmia Diagnosis and Treatment program are faculty members of Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, a part of Rutgers University, one of the top research institutions in America. Our doctors are active in research and teach about all aspects of cardiology and arrhythmia. Each brings leading-edge knowledge from the classroom to the exam room.
