Arrhythmia Evaluation & Treatment

At Brazosport Cardiology, we offer a comprehensive program for the diagnosis and treatment of heart rhythm disorders (arrhythmias) from common palpitations to complex electrical abnormalities of the heart. Whether you’re experiencing symptoms like a racing heart, skipped beats, or lightheadedness, our team is here to provide clarity, expert care, and long-term solutions.

What Are Arrhythmias?

Arrhythmias are irregular heart rhythms that can originate in different parts of the heart:

Atrial arrhythmias: such as atrial fibrillation (AFib), atrial flutter, and supraventricular tachycardia (SVT)—can cause palpitations, fatigue, and increased stroke risk.
Ventricular arrhythmias: including premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) and ventricular tachycardia (VT)—may be more serious and require urgent evaluation.
Bradycardia (slow heart rhythms): often due to issues with the heart’s natural pacemaker or conduction system.

Symptoms That May Suggest an Arrhythmia

Our Evaluation Approach:

In-depth Consultation: Thorough history-taking and physical exam to understand your symptoms and health background.
Arrhythmia Monitoring:
- External monitors (Holter monitors, event recorders, Zio patch)
- Implantable loop recorders for long-term rhythm surveillance when needed
Advanced Cardiac Imaging:
(Echocardiography, Stress Testing, PET CT if indicated)

Treatment Options:

Depending on your diagnosis and risk profile, treatment may include:

Lifestyle and risk factor modification (e.g., reducing caffeine, treating sleep apnea)
Medications to control heart rate or rhythm
Catheter Ablation to eliminate abnormal electrical pathways causing arrhythmias
Pacemaker or ICD implantation for patients with slow heart rhythms or life-threatening arrhythmias
