Swiss Ablation Zurich-Puls 5

Swiss Ablation Zurich – Puls 5 is a dedicated cardiology and electrophysiology clinic in Zurich-West (District 5) that concentrates on identifying and treating heart rhythm disorders, especially atrial fibrillation. It presents itself as an integrated, “one-stop” service that coordinates assessment, therapy, and aftercare through an interdisciplinary team, with access to a state-of-the-art hybrid operating room and purpose-built recovery areas. The clinic is based on the second floor of the Puls 5 complex at Giessereistrasse 18, 8005 Zurich. The location combines a modern mixed-use development opened in 2004 with the preserved character of a former industrial foundry hall from 1898, Escher Wyss. It is straightforward to reach, with convenient access via elevator or stairs. At this site, patients can receive a wide range of rhythm-related diagnostics and treatments, including standard ECG, Holter monitoring, exercise testing, electrophysiology studies (EPS/EPU), and catheter-based ablation procedures. The clinic also provides implantation and follow-up care for pacemakers and defibrillators, including structured pathways for congenital rhythm conditions. A central component of its approach is contemporary ablation therapy, from initial consultation and pulmonary vein isolation through to planning surgical or hybrid ablation when appropriate. Depending on the clinical indication, the clinic may use cryoenergy, radiofrequency, or pulsed field ablation (PFA). It also indicates that its practice aligns with international guidelines, is supported by an internal quality management framework, and aims to minimize or avoid X-ray use (“non-fluoro”) whenever feasible.
