PHOENIX — The Abrazo Health Arrowhead Campus in Glendale unveiled its new Cardiac and Electrophysiology Suite, a $3.6 million project, on Wednesday.

Hospital doctors, employees and board members participated in a ribbon-cutting ceremony in the cardiac catheterization lab, the first phase of the project, according to a press release.

The suite with state-of-the-art equipment will accommodate heart patients with procedures such as balloon angioplasty, stents and heart rhythm device placements.

“We are opening our brand new Cath and EP suite with the latest technology that we could invest in for cardiovascular care,” Abrazo Arrowhead Campus CEO Stephen Garner said in the release. “I’d like to thank everyone for their support for these improvements to provide advanced technology and health resources for our community.

“We are thrilled to have this new equipment because we have such a fantastic team who provides excellent clinical care. We want to make sure we have the latest technology to match their dedication and are really excited to start our first cases in this suite.”

The new heart treatment area of the building will help the hospital diagnose and care for a wide array of heart conditions.

We want to hear from you.
