August 19, 2022 – Delray Medical Center’s new EP and Cardiac Suite is now open and will be able to conduct minimally invasive procedures using the Azurion image guided therapy system to treat arrythmias including atrial fibrillation. These catheter-based procedures reduce the risks and recovery time found in traditional surgical approaches. The benefits of catheter-based interventions include shorter hospital stays, reduced recovery time without the pain of a large incision, and less visible surgical scarring.
The Azurion, with its ergonomic design, optimizes workflow enabling physicians and clinicians to perform both routine and complex procedures. The system is designed to help clinicians work efficiently by reducing preparation and procedure time, enabling more patients to be diagnosed and treated. Azurion provides high quality imaging, with excellent visibility at low x-ray dose levels for patients of all sizes. The new lab also features the Indiglo UV disinfection lighting system, to further enhance patient safety and reduce complications.
Radial lounges are specifically designed to meet the needs of cardiac catheterization patients who have had their procedure performed through a catheter inserted into their radial artery, also known as the transradial catheterization. Transradial procedures use minimal sedation and patients are alert and oriented, and only remain in recovery for 4 to 6 hours. This new lounge, combined with the new state of the art technology in the EP and Cardiac Suite, are yet another example of Delray Medical Center prioritizing the needs of our patients and our community and investing into the future of healthcare.
