Frequently Asked Questions

Do Spanish hospitals use advanced technology for EPS and RFA?

Yes, Spanish hospitals are leaders in cardiac electrophysiology. They have the most modern electrophysiology labs, equipped with 3D mapping systems like CARTO and EnSite, as well as intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) and radiofrequency ablation catheters, to ensure accuracy during EPS and RFA treatments. These centres, equipped with advanced technology, enable the accurate diagnosis and management of arrhythmias.

Do Spanish doctors have experience with EPS and RFA procedures?

Yes. Spanish electrophysiologists and cardiologists have extensive experience in EPS and RFA for complicated arrhythmias. Many of them have received specialised training in Europe or the U.S. and are actively involved in international cardiology conferences. They do these procedures all the time for local patients as well as those coming from out of town and have experience treating conditions such as atrial fibrillation, SVT, VT and WPW syndrome.

Do Spanish hospitals assist foreign patients undergoing EPS and RFA?
