Electrophysiology and Arrhythmias in Adult Congenital Heart Disease

Electrophysiology in adult congenital heart disease focuses on the heart's electrical system, which controls its rhythm. People with congenital heart defects may experience arrhythmias, or irregular heartbeats, due to altered heart structure and function. These arrhythmias can lead to symptoms such as palpitations, dizziness, or fatigue. Understanding and managing these electrical issues is crucial for improving heart health and quality of life in adults with congenital heart conditions. Specialized tests and treatments help to restore normal rhythm and reduce complications, ensuring better long-term outcomes for individuals affected by these conditions.
