Heart Failure

Advanced options for heart failure patients

Our Congestive Heart Failure program includes the latest testing, procedures and monitoring to keep patients out of the hospital and living their best lives. We have the lowest readmission rates in South Carolina and the latest options:

  • CardioMEMSTM — we are the leading implanter in the U.S.

  • Ventricular-assist devices (VAD) for patients waiting for transplants

  • Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), ideal for patients over 65

 

Electrophysiology

Innovative approaches to treat atrial fibrillation and arrhythmia

For patients with AFib or arrhythmia, our electrophysiologists provide advanced treatments, from medication to minimally invasive surgery. We have an entire center and medical practice dedicated exclusively to arrhythmia. Advances offered include:

  • WATCHMAN™ and WATCHMAN FLX™ devices

  • Artificial intelligence to determine heart failure to prevent readmission

  • Cryoballoon ablation to freeze electrical currents that cause AFib
