Profile of the key figure heart arrhythmia and atrial fibrillation, ablative therapy per catheter, patient number

About the indicator «Specific patient numbers»

Number of patients with a specific diagnosis or intervention (per calendar year).

Strengths:

High patient numbers with a specific diagnosis or intervention is a indicator for good knowledge and expertise. A hospital with high specific patient numbers has a lot of experience with different techniques of diagnosis and treatment (e.g. surgeries). Additionally, high specific patient numbers suggest that employees and technical equipment are up to date.

Limits:

Unfortunately, specific patient numbers are not available for all interventions. It is not sure that results are transferable to similar interventions. Also, the relationship between patient numbers and experience/competency is not linear. Especially with very high specific patient numbers the expertise and knowledge does not increase in equal measure.

Pacemaker implantation in permanent atrial fibrillation with subsequent ablation of the AV node. Top treatment by doctors and nursing staff. Competent and sensitive. I was in the Triemli for about 10 weeks and had practically only positive experiences. thank you very much

Excellent cardiology. In my persistent atrial fibrillation with atrial thrombus, which lasted 3 months, the right steps were taken at the right time in every phase from thrombus dissolution to electrocardioversion and follow-up support.

 verified rating about the Gesundheitszentrum Fricktal, Rheinfelden
starstarstarstarstar
Experience is consistently positive. Doctors and staff very friendly, hotel and eating flawless. Straightforward organisation in contrast to the University hospital of Basel, which for me is more of a factory. Positive, sugery at a very high level

starstarstarstarstar
Discharge report not correct, in the 5 days I stayed there no 24h ECG was made for atrial fibrillation, no follow-up solution such as rehab was discussed, a strong blood thinner was prescribed without BV card without the physicians knowing what type of atrial fibrillation it was

starstarstarstarstar
Because of cardiac arrhythmias, I had a pacemaker implanted on November 2nd. A short “thing” of just under an hour. Thanks to the partial anesthesia, I was able to follow the interesting operation. Excellent work was done by PD Dr. Winnik and his team (also before the operation).  

About the surgery:
starstarstarstarstar
Removal of the event recorder, pacemaker implant. Everything went great, the extreme tiredness is now gone and I'm recovering quickly. I only feel a kind of muscle soreness in my left arm. Since there will be no more fainting spells, I will move much more confidently. (surgeon: Dr. Stephan Winnik)
