The summer break is a great time to slow down, reset, and enjoy some simple moments outdoors — and it can also be the perfect opportunity to move a little more.

With longer days and warmer weather, even small changes like adding a short walk, exploring a local trail, or doing a few extra laps around the block can help lift your energy and support your heart health.

It doesn’t need to be intense or structured — just steady, gentle movement at a pace that feels right for you.

Regular physical activity can help boost heart health, reduce stress, and improve overall wellbeing.

And the best part? Every step counts. You might be surprised how quickly a few minutes of movement here and there can add up.

If you’d like to plan a more structured activity routine for the year ahead, the Heart Foundation has a dedicated section with simple, practical guides to help you get started. You can explore their resources here: https://www.heartfoundation.org.au/healthy-living/physical-activity/physical-activity-getting-started

Wishing you a heart-healthy start to the new year — and a summer filled with fresh air, sunshine, and gentle activity.

Have you heard of a heart procedure called a radiofrequency ablation?

It’s a commonly performed treatment for certain heart rhythm conditions.

Conducted in a cardiac catheter lab, radiofrequency ablation uses carefully controlled electrical energy to treat tiny areas of heart tissue that may be triggering abnormal electrical signals.

People may be referred for this procedure when their heart is beating too fast or irregularly due to these abnormal impulses.

The procedure can be done under either local or general anaesthetic, and your doctor will discuss which option is most suitable for you.

During the procedure, a thin flexible tube called a catheter is inserted into a vein — often in the groin — and gently guided up to the heart. X-ray imaging is used throughout to help the doctor position the catheter safely and precisely.

Once in place, the heart’s electrical activity is recorded from inside the heart to pinpoint the exact areas causing the rhythm disturbance.

The radiofrequency ablation catheter is then used to apply targeted energy to those areas. This creates a small scar that helps prevent the abnormal rhythm from recurring.

The procedure usually takes between two and four hours, depending on the type of arrhythmia being treated.

At Eastern Heart Clinic, most patients come in on the morning of their procedure and stay overnight for monitoring, but your doctor will advise the best plan for your individual situation.

You can learn more about the procedure here: https://www.ehc.com.au/radiofrequency-ablation/

Have you heard of a condition called atrial fibrillation?

It’s a common heart rhythm disorder that can result in a range of symptoms - for example, feeling your heart “flutter” or “racing”or feeling breathless or light-headed.

These symptoms might prompt you to see a doctor for about your heart for the first time. Knowing more about atrial fibrillation will enable you to navigate the process of diagnosis and management with greater knowledge and confidence.

🫀 What is atrial fibrillation?

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a type of arrhythmia in which the heart beats fast and irregularly due to abnormal electrical activity in the top chambers of the heart. Instead of contracting normally, the atria twitch rapidly and out of rhythm with the lower chambers. This reduces the heart’s ability to pump blood effectively and increases the chance of a blood clot forming and travelling to the brain, where it can cause a stroke. Symptoms vary and may include breathlessness, dizziness, palpitations, tiredness, chest discomfort or difficulty exercising, although some people experience no symptoms at all.

🫀 How is atrial fibrillation diagnosed?

Diagnosis usually begins with a review of your symptoms and medical history, along with a physical examination. Your doctor may arrange blood tests, a chest X-ray, an electrocardiogram (ECG), an echocardiogram or heart rhythm monitoring such as a Holter monitor, event recorder or implantable loop recorder. Stress testing may also be recommended to assess how your heart responds during exercise.

🫀 How is atrial fibrillation treated?

Treatment focuses on managing symptoms and reducing the risk of stroke. Management may include medications to slow the heart rate, restore normal rhythm or reduce clotting risk. Other treatment options include electrical or pharmacological cardioversion, catheter ablation or a pacemaker. Lifestyle measures—such as reducing alcohol intake, being physically active, maintaining a healthy weight and managing conditions like high blood pressure or sleep apnoea—also play an important role.

🫀 If you're concerned about your heart

This information is general in nature and provided for educational purposes. If you have concerns about your heart or symptoms that may indicate atrial fibrillation, please speak with your GP or heart health professional.

🌟 Happy New Year from all of us at Eastern Heart Clinic! 🌿✨

As we step into 2026, we hope the year ahead feels full of possibility, fresh starts, and moments that support your health and happiness.

The beginning of a new year is a great time to focus on a few simple habits that can help your heart feel its best. A gentle walk each day, choosing more fresh foods, keeping up with your regular check-ups, or even taking a few quiet minutes to slow your breathing — small changes like these can add up in meaningful ways.

To all of our previous and current patients, we wish you a heart-healthy and positive year ahead. If you're a new patient with us in 2026, we look forward to caring for you and supporting you with your heart health needs in your stay with us.

While many services wind down over Christmas, Eastern Heart Clinic continues to operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week — including over the entire festive period.

For anyone in our emergency catchment area who experiences a heart attack or a critical heart event, Eastern Heart Clinic provides a dedicated 24/7 emergency angioplasty service.

This is a life-saving procedure that’s performed to open up blocked coronary arteries, helping restore blood flow to the heart.

We work in partnership with NSW Ambulance and the Prince of Wales Hospital.

When paramedics identify that a patient requires urgent interventional cardiology care, they bypass the emergency department and transport the patient directly to our cardiac catheter laboratory at Eastern Heart Clinic.

Our team is notified while the patient is en route, allowing us to prepare the theatre and specialist staff so treatment can begin without delay.

This coordinated model of care helps deliver faster treatment, better outcomes and reduced time spent in emergency departments during a heart attack.

As we head into the Christmas and New Year period, we extend our appreciation to all emergency services personnel, paramedics, nurses, doctors and hospital teams who continue their vital work over the holidays.

Please don’t present directly to Eastern Heart Clinic in the event of a heart emergency. If you or someone you’re with experiences sudden chest pain, call 000 immediately. NSW Ambulance will coordinate your care and ensure you are taken to the most appropriate facility for your needs.

As we approach the end of 2025, it’s a good moment to pause and ask yourself: if you’re eligible, have you had your heart health check this year?

If you’re 45 or older — or 30 and above for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples — you may be eligible for an annual heart health check through Medicare.

A heart health check helps identify early risk factors such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol and lifestyle contributors. Detecting these risks early allows you and your GP to take steps that can reduce the risk of heart attack or stroke.

If you’re eligible and haven’t had your check in 2025, consider booking an appointment with your GP before the year wraps up, or plan one for early in the new year.

You can read more about what’s involved in a heart health check on our website:
