Symptoms associated with atrial fibrillation include a reduction in exercise capacity, palpitations, as well as difficulty in breathing when exercising and fatigue. We spoke to leading cardiologist and electrophysiologist Dr Saagar Mahida to learn about how catheter ablation can be carried out as a solution for this condition

How an electrophysiology study works

The electrophysiology (EP) study can help diagnose a wide range of heart problems and plan the treatment you need. Over recent years, the pool of patients who can safely benefit from an EP test has widened, and with the help of new scanning technology, the EP test involves fewer risks than ever before. We interviewed pioneering cardiologist Professor Sabine Ernst to find out what an EP test looks like in 2020.

Is there a link between coronavirus and heart failure?

Symptoms of coronavirus such as difficulty in breathing and in more severe cases, pneumonia, have been the primary focus of the respiratory disease. More evidence is surfacing from doctors on the frontline of managing cases, that shows that the virus can also infect the heart and potentially leads to heart failure. Read more on this and what it might also mean for those who live with a pre-existing heart condition.
