The service also includes simple and complex cardiac device implantation and follow-up care.

The department has offered comprehensive clinical cardiac electrophysiology services, including complex ablation procedures, since April 2019. A dedicated electrophysiology catheter lab was opened in 2024 to support this growing service.

The Echocardiography Unit performs over 4,000 studies annually, including transoesophageal and stress echocardiography, with emergency services available. A Cardiac CT program, launched in 2017 in collaboration with the Department of Radiology, further enhances diagnostic capabilities.

These capabilities position the ACT as a tertiary referral hub for advanced cardiac diagnostics and interventions.

North Canberra Hospital (NCH) complements this service with a 6 bed Coronary Care Unit and a broad range of outpatient cardiology services, including ambulatory blood pressure and Holter monitoring, ECG testing, chest pain clinics, general cardiology clinics, exercise stress echocardiography and exercise tolerance testing. With the progressive commissioning of the new Northside hospital, there is a significant opportunity to further strengthen and expand the role of NCH. Service design and future planning anticipates leveraging Northside infrastructure and capability to support the evolution of NCH as a leading hub for diagnostic and ambulatory cardiology services, aligned with broader territory wide clinical strategies and population needs.

Across both hospital sites, Cardiac Rehabilitation and Heart Failure Rehabilitation services provide continuity of care and support long term outcomes for patients living with chronic cardiac disease.
