About the Clinic
For the special field of electrophysiology, the Ruhr-University of Bochum created a second Chair at the HDZ NRW in 2018. Here special cardiac catheter examinations, so-called catheter ablations, are performed in order to assess electrical activity within the heart muscle.

Treatment
Our Clinic uses one of the most state-of-the-art catheter ablation systems worldwide. It facilitates particularly gentle and low-radiation catheter treatment for patients with various cardiac dysrhythmias. Approximately 1,000 ablations are performed in Bad Oeynhausen every year.

Training and research
When the heart loses its rhythm and cardiovascular function is impaired, a precise diagnosis, an individual treatment strategy and experienced consultations are required. For this reason, patients with cardiac dysrhythmia have their own separate ward.
