The Cardiovascular Department II of Peking University Shenzhen Hospital was officially established on May 8, 2017. Positioned as a three in one clinical discipline of "medicine, education, and research", it has established a department that currently integrates the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases such as coronary heart disease intervention, arrhythmia intervention, cardiac rehabilitation treatment, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, heart failure, myocarditis, and cardiomyopathy. At present, it is a high-level certified unit such as the National Atrial Fibrillation Alliance Demonstration Center and the National Chest Pain Center.
We have introduced outstanding domestic specialized talents and currently have 14 doctors in our department, including 6 chief physicians, 2 deputy chief physicians, 6 PhDs, and 7 masters. All of them come from key medical colleges in China, and there are also many returnees from overseas and renowned cardiovascular center trainees at home and abroad. In clinical practice, our department has a number of internationally advanced equipment such as intravascular ultrasound (IVUS), intra aortic balloon counterpulsation (IABP), Carto 3 electrophysiological mapping system, Bard multi-channel electrophysiological recorder, etc.
Specialized advantages and diagnostic and treatment features
1.Intervention for coronary heart disease. (1) Interventional techniques for complex coronary heart disease: interventional treatment for chronic occlusive disease (CTO), left main artery disease, and bifurcation vascular disease; (2) Interventional related adjuvant therapy surgeries: coronary artery rotational atherectomy, cutting balloon technique, bedside IABP placement, providing personalized treatment plans for various types of coronary heart disease patients. (3) Conducting various high-tech examination methods, such as FFR, IVUS, OCT, etc., to provide more accurate and reliable information and images for precise coronary intervention therapy; Improve surgical safety; (4) We strictly follow the procedures of our chest pain center according to national standards, open a "green channel", significantly shorten the intervention rescue time for acute myocardial infarction and improve the success rate of rescue. The door ball opening time (DTB) is further shortened on the basis of meeting the standard, with a minimum DTB time of 18 minutes, ensuring that patients with acute myocardial infarction receive timely treatment.
2.Electrophysiology group: (1) Conduct interventional diagnosis and treatment of rapid arrhythmias such as supraventricular tachycardia, atrial fibrillation, and ventricular tachycardia; (2) Relying on a three-dimensional electrophysiological mapping platform and intracardiac ultrasound for zero ray technology to diagnose and treat arrhythmia, meeting the diagnostic and treatment needs of special patients such as children and pregnant women; (3) Conducted a one-stop treatment surgery for percutaneous atrial fibrillation catheter ablation and left atrial appendage occlusion; (4) Implantation of intracardiac electronic devices: Various pacemaker implantation treatments are routinely carried out, especially with the characteristic of Hirschsprung's bundle pacing; Cardiac resynchronization (CRT-D) and left bundle branch pacing therapy improve the prognosis of heart failure patients; The application of implantable cardioversion defibrillators (ICDs) has improved the survival rate of patients with malignant ventricular arrhythmias through routine bedside temporary pacemaker placement surgery.
3.Hypertension group: Routine clinical diagnosis and treatment of hypertension are carried out, and some city level research work related to hypertension is undertaken. The overall patient satisfaction is good, and it has a certain brand effect in Shenzhen.
In the future, the second ward of the cardiology department will adhere to the development strategy of "equal emphasis on knowledge and action, mutual growth of teaching and learning", strengthen self exploration and communication cooperation, and strive to improve the clinical, scientific research, and teaching level of characteristic sub specialties such as interventional diagnosis and treatment of coronary heart disease and arrhythmia, with the goal of creating key disciplines in the city and province.
