Pacing
Patient information
The Alfred has a broad experience across all kinds of cardiac devices for the heart, including pacemakers and implantable cardiac defibrillators.
What we do
These devices are used to help control slow or fast heart rhythms, and to prevent dangerous rhythm problems.
Our service is also closely linked with the Heart Failure & Transplant service.
Most devices require a one night stay in hospital and patients can be discharged early the following morning.
