Chesapeake (Va.) Regional Medical Center has opened the region’s largest electrophysiology lab.

The lab features more than 900 square feet of procedural space and advanced cardiac technology, according to a May 20 news release shared with Becker’s. Procedures performed in the lab include electrical mapping of the heart, ablation, pacemaker and defibrillator implantation, and real-time medication evaluation.

The dedicated space allows the hospital to optimize lab utilization, eliminate scheduling conflict and support 30% to 50% more patients.

At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
