DIMO Healthcare Elevates Durdans Hospital’s Cardiac Care with WorkMate Claris 2D by Abbott
Durdans Hospital, the first hospital in Sri Lanka to implement an Electrophysiology (EP) system, has now upgraded to the advanced Abbott WorkMate Claris 2D from DIMO Healthcare, further enhancing the cardiac care treatments offered by the hospital.
The WorkMate Claris 2D System is designed to assist electrophysiologists in diagnosing, addressing and treating irregular heart rhythms. The human heart depends on a precise electrical system to maintain its rhythm and ensure proper blood flow through its four chambers. Electrical impulses originating in the sinus node (SA node) travel through the atrioventricular node (AV node) to regulate the heartbeat. Disruptions to this electrical system, caused by many conditions leading to arrhythmias, can result in severe complications, as heart attacks, complete heart blocks, and may even lead to premature loss of life. The EP system resolves these irregularities through a procedure called ablation, which targets and prevents heart tissues from emitting erratic electrical impulses, thereby normalizing the heart’s rhythm.
A key innovation of Abbott WorkMate Claris 2D System is its advanced cooling technology, which minimizes damage to healthy tissues during ablation. By precisely controlling heat delivery to affected areas, this state-of-the-art system ensures safer and more effective treatment, marking a significant breakthrough in cardiac care. Furthermore, the system prioritizes sustainable patient management, ensuring optimal care with long-term benefits.
One of the standout features of the Abbott WorkMate Claris 2D is its ability to share live visuals securely over a network, enabling real-time collaboration between medical professionals globally. This fosters precision in treatment while promoting a global standard of care through seamless consultations and referrals.
Durdans Hospital selected DIMO Healthcare, the healthcare arm of DIMO, as its EP system augmentation partner, recognizing the expertise DIMO Healthcare has acquired as the local representative for globally renowned medical equipment brands such as Abbott, Siemens Healthineers, and Carl Zeiss. DIMO Healthcare’s unwavering commitment to bringing cutting-edge healthcare technologies to Sri Lanka also played a pivotal role in this collaboration for the EP system upgrade at Durdans Hospital.
Dr. Lasantha Karunasekara, CEO/DMS at Durdans Hospital, said: “The installation of the Abbott WorkMate Claris 2D System is a testament to our dedication for giving our patients the finest care possible through the most advanced and innovative healthcare solutions. We will be able to provide advanced cardiac treatment and significantly improve the lives of people with heart rhythm abnormalities, thanks to this state-of-the-art technology.”
Mr. Priyantha Dissanayake, Chief Operating Officer – DIMO Healthcare, said, “Our goal at DIMO Healthcare is to introduce top-notch medical technology to Sri Lanka. Our dedication to providing healthcare professionals with the resources they need to offer outstanding patient care is demonstrated by the installation of the Abbott WorkMate Claris 2D System at Durdans Hospital. As a company, we take pride in fuelling dreams and aspirations of the communities we serve, and this initiative is yet another step towards building a healthier nation.”
