Qatar’s hospital performs first pulmonary vein isolation procedure
DOHA, Qatar (MNTV) – A hospital in Qatar has achieved a groundbreaking milestone by successfully performing the first pulmonary vein isolation procedure.
The procedure was performed at Doha’s View Hospital under Dr. Noureddin Sawan, a cardiology consultant in Interventional Electrophysiology, according to The Peninsula.
This advanced procedure marks a significant advancement in the treatment of atrial fibrillation (AFib), a common heart rhythm disorder.
The procedure, which utilizes state-of-the-art technology, isolates the pulmonary veins to interrupt abnormal electrical signals in the heart, effectively restoring normal rhythm.
This minimally invasive technique is widely recognized for its effectiveness in managing AFib, reducing symptoms, and lowering the risk of complications such as stroke and heart failure.
The successful implementation of this procedure underscores The View Hospital’s commitment to delivering cutting-edge treatments and positioning itself as a pioneer in cardiovascular care within Qatar’s private healthcare sector.
Dr. Fatih Mehmet Gul, CEO of The View Hospital, emphasized the significance of this achievement.
“The successful procedure underscores the View Hospital’s role as an academic center, providing tertiary-level care services of the highest standard. It reaffirms our commitment to delivering the most advanced medical care to our patients,” he said.
This milestone not only highlights The View Hospital’s leadership in medical innovation but also enhances the range of specialized services available in Qatar’s private healthcare sector.
By offering life-changing treatments such as pulmonary vein isolation, the hospital continues to advance patient outcomes and set new benchmarks in healthcare excellence.
The achievement reflects The View Hospital’s ongoing dedication to bringing world-class medical solutions to Qatar and the broader region, ensuring patients have access to the most advanced and effective treatments available.
