  • Cardioversion is a safe and effective procedure that can assist patients suffering from irregular heart rhythm, also known as arrhythmia.

    During cardioversion, the specialists at Heart & Vascular Center of West Tennessee send an electric shock to your heart to reset the rhythm. The procedure takes only a few minutes and is simple, effective, and painless, improving blood circulation throughout your body and reducing the likelihood of developing blood clots that may lead to a heart attack or stroke.

    Cardioversion can effectively treat many different arrhythmias including:

    • Atrial fibrillation

    • Atrial flutter

    • Supraventricular tachycardia

    • Ventricular tachycardia

    To learn more about cardioversion and whether it is a possible treatment option for you, contact Heart & Vascular Center of West Tennessee today.

  • Coronary calcium scans are used to identify early-stage heart disease by using advanced heart analysis technology.

    Using a special X-ray test called computed tomography (CT), a coronary calcium scan checks for the buildup of calcium in plaque on the walls of the coronary arteries of the heart.

    This test can provide doctors with valuable information to diagnose and treat cardiovascular disease, preventing symptoms from worsening and reducing the chance of suffering from a potentially fatal cardiac emergency such as heart attack or stroke.

    To learn more about coronary calcium scans or to schedule an appointment, contact Heart & Vascular Center of West Tennessee today.

  • Patients suffering from abnormal heart rhythm may benefit from electrophysiology procedures, advanced medical techniques used to restore heart rhythm and improve quality of life.

    Abnormal heart rhythm, also known as an arrhythmia, affects the movement of blood through your heart and may increase your risk of developing blood clots that can cause a heart attack or stroke.

    The providers at Heart & Vascular Center of West Tennessee use advanced electrophysiology procedures to find and treat the underlying cause of abnormal heart rhythm.

    These procedures include:

    • Cardiac 3D mapping - This diagnostic test can identify the origin of your abnormal heart rhythm by measuring the electrical activity in the chambers of your heart

    • Radiofrequency ablation - An effective treatment for abnormal heart rhythm, this procedure uses radiofrequency energy to heat specific areas of the heart, destroying small areas of the damaged cardiac tissue and restoring your normal heart rhythm

    Electrophysiology procedures are minimally invasive, restoring your heart rhythm while requiring only a short recovery time.

    To learn more about electrophysiology procedures or to schedule an appointment, contact the Heart & Vascular Center of West Tennessee today.

  • External counterpulsation (ECP) therapy is an innovative treatment that improves symptoms and quality of life for those suffering from chronic angina, heart failure, or cardiomyopathy.

    ECP therapy alleviates symptoms of ischemia (lack of blood supply to the heart) caused by heart conditions. During ECP therapy, your provider places blood pressure cuffs on your legs. These cuffs gently compress your blood vessels to the rhythm of your heartbeat, painlessly boosting blood flow to your heart.

    Results from ECP therapy vary. Many patients find relief from chest pain after completing their series of treatments, while some patients are even able to reduce the amount of heart medication they take.

    To find out more about external counterpulsation therapy or to schedule an appointment, contact Heart & Vascular Center of West Tennessee today.

  • Interventional cardiology procedures use minimally invasive catheterization techniques, such as balloon angioplasty and pacemaker or defibrillator implantation, to treat conditions such as coronary artery disease (CAD).

    Procedures performed by the team at Heart & Vascular Center of West Tennessee include:

    • Laser angioplasty - This minimally invasive procedure uses a laser to clear blockages and improve blood flow to your body

    • Pacemaker installation - A pacemaker is a small, implantable, battery-operated device that helps your heart beat in a regular rhythm by using painless electrical impulses

    • Defibrillator implantation - A defibrillator is an implantable device with single or double leads that shocks your heart if it detects a life-threatening arrhythmia

    • Cardiac resynchronization therapy - This painless procedure installs a small pacemaker just below your collarbone to restore heart function

    • Laser lead extraction - This cardiology procedure uses a laser to remove pacemaker or defibrillator leads that are malfunctioning or infected

    To benefit from cutting-edge interventional cardiology procedures, contact Heart & Vascular Center of West Tennessee today.

  • If you have varicose veins, Heart & Vascular Center of West Tennessee offers varicose vein ablations as a safe, effective, and painless treatment method.

    Varicose veins are caused when the valves that control blood flow stop working or weaken, allowing blood to leak backward and gather in the veins. If left untreated, varicose veins can develop into chronic venous insufficiency (CVI), a serious form of vein disease.

    Eventually, you might develop leg ulcers — open wounds or sores that are resistant to healing and have a severe impact on your mobility and quality of life.

    During varicose vein ablations, your provider inserts a catheter into a vein and feeds it through to the damaged area. They then use laser light energy to collapse the diseased vein. Over time, the treated veins break down and dissolve naturally.

    Varicose vein ablations are safe, less invasive than conventional surgery, and leave virtually no scars.

    To learn more about varicose veins or to schedule an appointment, contact Heart & Vascular Center of West Tennessee today.

  • The vascular lab is available at the Jackson and Dyersburg locations and offers a range of cutting-edge catheterization procedures to access your heart and blood vessels through minimally invasive techniques.

    The state-of-the-art vascular lab offers several convenient outpatient procedures for patients with heart and circulatory conditions. These include:

    • Peripheral angioplasty - This treatment opens blocked or narrowed blood vessels in your legs, reducing the chance of developing conditions like peripheral arterial disease (PAD)

    • Atherectomy - An alternative to angioplasty, your provider uses a catheter fitted with a sharp blade to remove plaque from inside the affected artery

    • Varicose vein removal - Your provider uses radiofrequency energy to heat, collapse, and seal off diseased blood vessels with minimal scarring and with a short recovery time

    • Angiogram - An angiogram uses X-ray technology to take pictures of your veins and arteries, identifying potentially fatal blockages

    The minimally invasive approaches used at a vascular lab offer significant benefits compared to surgery. Patients experience minimal pain and bleeding, avoid a hospital stay, have a lower risk of developing complications or infections, and recover far more quickly.

    To take advantage of the vascular lab facilities at Heart & Vascular Center of West Tennessee, call the Jackson or Dyersburg office today.

  • The WATCHMAN procedure is a minimally invasive treatment that can reduce the chance of stroke and heart disease in at-risk patients diagnosed with atrial fibrillation not caused by a heart valve problem.
