New Arrhythmia Center Commission to Architecture Firm, © William N. Bernstein, LEED®AP, AIA

For Immediate Release (02/07/10)

Bernstein & Associates, Architects is pleased to announce that it has been selected to plan and design a new cardiac center --- for the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias, ablations and other cardiovascular interventions --- within a prominent hospital in New York.

The project includes cardiology planning and cardiology design of multiple Electrophysiology (EP) Labs, including the incorporation of Stereotaxis equipment, which allows for remote magnetic navigation. The arrhythmia center design includes a cardiology procedure wing, cardiology prep/recovery wing, cardiology reception/waiting, cardiology office wing, and cardiology education wing.

The planning of the cardiology procedure wing allows for: four Electrophysiology (EP) Labs, including the remote navigation equipment by Stereotaxis as indicated, as well as typical patient and staff support. The planning required for this cardiac equipment required coordination amongst numerous parties.

The design of the cardiology prep/recovery wing allows for the proper ratio of prep/recovery beds to procedure rooms, as well as nursing station, nourishment station, clean utility, soiled utility, and other typical support spaces.

The design of the arrhythmia center waiting/reception includes a reception area, waiting for arrhythmia patients and their families, arrhythmia patient education center, pantry and consulting.

This state-of-the-art arrhythmia center has been featured on the cardiology business website www.cardiologybusiness.com), as well as the Hospital Newspaper. It promises to be a leading example of arrhythmia center planning and design when complete.
