Atrial fibrillation Treatment in German Medical Institute (GMI)
About the clinic
German Medical Institute (GMI) in Limassol, Cyprus, offers atrial fibrillation assessment and treatment, including catheter ablation and cardiac device implantation. Its arrhythmia service is led by Dr Andreas Loizos Kyriacou, a Fellow of the European Society of Cardiology. He was the first Cypriot cardiologist awarded Fellowship of the European Heart Rhythm Association (FEHRA).
Tests for atrial fibrillation
Testing can assess heart rhythm, structure, blood flow, and pressure. GMI’s Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory is integrated with its Cardiac Intensive Care Unit.
- Electrophysiological study: An invasive test that examines the heart’s electrical signals.
- 3D echocardiography: Transthoracic and transesophageal imaging can show the heart’s structure.
- Cardiac catheterization: The clinic also offers invasive physiological and hemodynamic assessments.
- Intracardiac and intravascular imaging: These tools provide images from within the heart and blood vessels.
- Coronary physiology assessment: Tests can assess blood flow through the coronary arteries.
Treatment options
Dr Kyriacou trained in complex arrhythmia ablation at Royal Brompton and Harefield Hospitals. He also served as a consultant cardiologist and electrophysiologist at Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.
- Catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation: This minimally invasive procedure uses an electrophysiological study followed by targeted ablation. Intracardiac and intravascular imaging and 3D transesophageal echocardiography are available.
- Cardiac device implantation: Options include pacemakers, implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs), and cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). These devices support rhythm control or heart-failure resynchronization.
- Cardiac catheterization laboratory procedures: The laboratory supports diagnostic and interventional cardiac care.
GMI holds ISO 9001, ISO 45001, ISO 22000, and CHKS accreditations. Patients can request a consultation through Bookimed to discuss assessment and treatment options.
