Gwinnett Medical Center's cardiac services includes two of Metro Atlantas most state-of-the-art electrophysiology (EP) labs at its Strickland Heart Center in Lawrenceville. These labs will allow the cardiac experts at GMC to diagnose and treat heart arrhythmias, or problems related to the hearts rhythm.
A quivering or irregular heartbeat can lead to blood clots, stroke, heart failure and other heart-related complications. According to the American Heart Association, an estimated 2.7 million Americans are living with these complications, which includes atrial fibrillation (AFib). If you suspect that you may suffer from AFib, have it checked out. Call 678-312-5000 or find a cardiologist near you.
Gwinnett Medical Centers EP program also features the subcutaneous implantable cardiac defibrillator (SICD) procedure. GMC was also only the second hospital system in Georgia and the first in North Metro Atlanta to conduct this procedure, which enables a defibrillator to be placed directly under the skin without touching the heart. Since this amazing innovation in cardiovascular care does not involve placement of a lead inside the heart, it offers an important alternative for patients who have no vascular access or younger patients who may require multiple defibrillators during their lifetime.
From diagnosing heart disease to treating cardiovascular conditions such as cardiomyopathy, blocked arteries or arrhythmia, Gwinnett Medical Center has provided expert care for cardiovascular diseases in our community for more than 20 years.
One of the most advanced programs we offer is our percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) program. This program allows physicians to perform life-saving coronary angioplasty and stenting procedures within our cath lab. It also allows for advanced techniques for extracting blockages in patients blood vessels during these procedures. These advanced techniques mean faster response times to cardiac situationsand time saved is heart muscle saved.
