A Southcoast Health tem o prazer de anunciar que o programa Heart and Vascular do Charlton Memorial Hospital \u00e9 a primeira cl\u00ednica na Nova Inglaterra a realizar um procedimento inovador no tratamento da fibrilha\u00e7\u00e3o auricular (AFib) com o sistema PulseSelect Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA)\u2122.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Esta conquista \u00e9 um cr\u00e9dito para a Southcoast Health, nossos provedores e nossos pacientes\", disse Nitesh Sood, MD, Diretor do Programa de Bem-Estar de Fibrila\u00e7\u00e3o Atrial na Southcoast Health Heart and Vascular. \"Passar da participa\u00e7\u00e3o no programa estudo para este dispositivo<\/a> h\u00e1 tr\u00eas anos, realizar o primeiro caso em Nova Inglaterra \u00e9 um grande feito. Esta tecnologia oferece-nos a capacidade de abla\u00e7\u00e3o do tecido card\u00edaco em \u00e1reas onde, no passado, est\u00e1vamos limitados no que diz respeito \u00e0 quantidade de energia que pod\u00edamos fornecer. Isto pode ajudar-nos no tratamento de determinados casos\".<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sob a dire\u00e7\u00e3o do Dr. Sood, a Southcoast Health foi a primeira em Nova Inglaterra, a 12\u00aa nos Estados Unidos e a 16\u00aa no mundo a realizar este procedimento<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Esta nova t\u00e9cnica inclui uma tecnologia de abla\u00e7\u00e3o inovadora, a abla\u00e7\u00e3o por campo pulsado (PFA), que dirige campos el\u00e9ctricos pulsados para isolar eficazmente as veias pulmonares para o tratamento da fibrilha\u00e7\u00e3o auricular.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"O nosso objetivo \u00e9 estar na vanguarda da tecnologia e aumentar o repert\u00f3rio do que podemos oferecer aos nossos doentes\", afirmou Ramin Davoudi, MD, Diretor M\u00e9dico de Eletrofisiologia da Southcoast Health Heart and Vascular. \"A nossa equipa de especialistas no Charlton Memorial dedica-se a manter-se actualizada com novas t\u00e9cnicas e tecnologias para garantir que oferecemos aos nossos pacientes um espetro completo de cuidados.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A fibrilha\u00e7\u00e3o auricular \u00e9 um ritmo card\u00edaco anormal caracterizado por um batimento card\u00edaco r\u00e1pido e irregular, designado por arritmia. A fibrilha\u00e7\u00e3o auricular ocorre quando o sistema el\u00e9trico do cora\u00e7\u00e3o n\u00e3o est\u00e1 a funcionar corretamente, podendo causar problemas de sa\u00fade graves, incluindo um acidente vascular cerebral.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

De acordo com o CDC, uma pessoa com fibrilha\u00e7\u00e3o auricular tem cinco vezes mais probabilidades de sofrer um AVC do que uma pessoa com um ritmo card\u00edaco regular. Acredita-se que esta condi\u00e7\u00e3o cause um em cada sete acidentes vasculares cerebrais (https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/heartdisease\/atrial_fibrillation.htm<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Estamos muito orgulhosos por termos sido os primeiros na Nova Inglaterra a oferecer esta nova tecnologia, e este procedimento exemplifica que somos um l\u00edder regional em todos os cuidados cardiovasculares\", disse Peter Cohn, MD, M\u00e9dico-chefe da Southcoast Health Heart and Vascular. \"Estamos empenhados em estar na vanguarda dos servi\u00e7os cardiovasculares, trazendo op\u00e7\u00f5es de tratamento avan\u00e7adas que normalmente s\u00f3 se encontram nas grandes cidades para as pessoas da nossa comunidade.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n
