Beacon Heart, Vascular & Stroke Care

At Beacon Health System there is a TAVR team that will determine if you are a candidate for TAVR.  Patient’s with aortic valve stenosis can be symptomatic or non-symptomatic.

At Beacon Health System there is a Watchman team that will determine if you are a candidate for Watchman also known as Left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO). LAAO, also referred to as Left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) is a treatment strategy to reduce the risk of left atrial appendage blood clots from entering the bloodstream and causing a stroke in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation. Patients with atrial fibrillation are at risk for developing blood clots in the left atrial appendage.

While anyone can be at risk for cardiovascular disease, your risk increases based on age and family history. High blood pressure or unhealthy blood cholesterol levels can also play a major role. Know your Risk

Anyone can have a stroke no matter your age, race, or gender. But the chances of having a stroke increase if you have certain risk factors. Know your Risk

If you are concerned about heart or vascular disease or having a stroke, call your primary care physician to discuss testing options and prevention methods.

An irregular heartbeat is an arrhythmia (also called dysrhythmia). Seek urgent medical care if you suddenly or frequently experience any of the signs and symptoms at a time when you wouldn't expect to feel them, such as: shortness of breath, weakness, dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting or near fainting, and chest pain or discomfort.

If you have an arrhythmia – an irregular heartbeat, or a heartbeat that is too fast or too slow – electrophysiology may be part of the answer. Arrhythmias are actually disturbances in the rhythm of the heart’s electrical system. Our electrophysiology services use the latest technology, including the CARTO System, an advanced computer mapping system that provides a picture of the heart’s electrical layout. Our Cardiologists can assess and discuss with you your testing options.
