At Sahaj Hospital, we offer Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) as a sophisticated, minimally invasive solution for patients seeking relief from chronic pain, heart rhythm disorders, and certain types of tumours. By utilising advanced thermal energy, our specialists can precisely target and treat problematic tissues without the need for traditional open surgery.

How RFA Works at Sahaj Hospital

The procedure involves the insertion of a specialised, thin, needle-like probe directly into the affected area. To ensure pinpoint accuracy, the experts at Sahaj Hospital utilise state-of-the-art imaging guidance, such as:

• Ultrasound

• CT Scans

• Fluoroscopy

Once the probe is perfectly positioned, it delivers high-frequency electrical currents. This process generates controlled heat that destroys abnormal tissue—whether it is a tumour or specific nerve fibres responsible for sending pain signals to the brain.

Key Applications

Sahaj Hospital utilises RFA across several medical disciplines to improve patient outcomes:

• Pain Management: Highly effective for chronic neck, back, and joint pain caused by arthritis or nerve damage.

• Cardiology: Used to treat heart rhythm disorders like atrial fibrillation by disrupting irregular electrical pathways.

• Oncology: A vital tool for targeting tumours in the liver, kidneys, lungs, and bones, especially when surgical removal is not an ideal option.

Benefits and Recovery

Choosing RFA at Sahaj Hospital offers several advantages over conventional surgery:

• Outpatient Convenience: Most patients can go home the same day.

• Minimal Recovery: Patients typically experience only mild discomfort and can resume normal daily activities within just a few days.

• Lower Risk: The procedure carries a significantly lower risk of complications compared to invasive surgeries.

While RFA is a safe and highly effective intervention, our clinical team will work closely with you to monitor your progress, as repeat procedures may sometimes be necessary depending on your specific condition and overall health goals.
