A member asked:
What does a cardiologist mean by saying that they may have to have your heart "wired" due to dangerous arrhythmias?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ablation or a pacema: The abnormal arrhythmia could be atrial or ventricular. Mist atrial arrhythmias can be ablated. Some ventricular arrhythmias can be ablated. Some require the placement of a defibrillator.
