3D device putting an end to Gaziantep citizens traveling to neighboring cities

Gaziantep City Hospital will become a leading center in the treatment of palpitations and arrhythmia with 3D arrhythmia devices.

Since the day it started providing services, Gaziantep City Hospital continues to be a source of hope for its patients. Providing superior services in terms of heart and vascular diseases, Gaziantep City Hospital can achieve positive results in the treatment of palpitations and arrhythmia using high technological methods such as 3D arrhythmia devices and ‘three-dimensional mapping’. Citizens will now be able to receive treatment free of charge without having to travel to neighboring cities in a cumbersome way. Cardiology Specialist Dr. Sedat Sakallı, stating that with the help of 3D devices, Gaziantep will be the most popular place in terms of health, said, ‘Especially patients with heart rhythm problems will have only one stop with these devices.’

‘We have acquired these 3D devices for our hospital’

Dr. Sakallı, providing information about arrhythmia, said that they have acquired 3D devices to be used in treatment within the hospital, ‘Arrhythmia is a specific branch related to the disturbances of our heart’s rhythm. Since our hospital opened, we have been intensively applying various treatments related to heart pacemakers. We heavily perform shock-inducing pacemakers for cases where the pulse drops, as well as some special pacemakers used in the treatment of heart failure patients. We have also initiated efforts for the non-surgical removal of heart pacemaker cables for the first time in Gaziantep. We have started treatments for arrhythmia known as ablation. In this way, we have eliminated the cumbersome rhythm problems that our citizens had to be referred to neighboring cities for.’

‘With 3D arrhythmia devices, Gaziantep City Hospital will be the primary destination for treatment’

Dr. Sakallı, stating that the City Hospital will be a destination point in the Southeast region with 3D devices, said, ‘The absence of 3D devices was a major deficiency in Gaziantep. There should be specialized physicians for the treatment of patients with palpitations and rhythm disorders. The procedures we perform here do not take long and patients can be discharged the next day. Drug treatment is not very effective for individuals with palpitation diseases. It is necessary to either burn them in appropriate ways or apply freezing methods. Thus, the patient can be completely cured or their complaints can be reduced.’

‘Patients will not need inappropriate treatments’

Dr. Sakallı, stating that patients will not need inappropriate treatments thanks to the procedures carried out by a professional team, said, ‘In terms of fees, patients are reluctant at first due to the fear of being charged differently like in private hospitals outside. Currently, none of these differences are charged within this hospital and will not be charged. All these procedures will be carried out by a professional team. The arrhythmia department dealing with rhythm disorders will be only here in our city and the surrounding cities. Therefore, patients suffering from this condition should make their applications here more.’
