About Dr Andrei Catanchin
Dr. Andrei Catanchin is a highly skilled Cardiologist and Electrophysiologist, specialising in heart rhythm disorders, including atrial fibrillation (AF) and other arrhythmias. With extensive expertise in catheter ablation techniques, he performs both cryoballoon ('freezing') and radiofrequency ('heating') ablations for all types of arrhythmias. He is also experienced in the implantation and remote monitoring of pacemakers, defibrillators (ICDs), and loop recorders, ensuring comprehensive long-term care for his patients.
A pioneer in advanced cardiac electrophysiology, Dr. Catanchin introduced complex arrhythmia mapping and cryoballoon AF ablation at Epworth in 2013. Since 2019, he has led the way in ‘zero fluoroscopy’ catheter ablation techniques, reducing x-ray radiation exposure and enhancing patient safety during procedures.
Beyond his clinical work, Dr. Catanchin is actively involved in medical education and research. As a Senior Lecturer at the University of Melbourne, he is dedicated to teaching and mentoring the next generation of cardiologists. He frequently presents at local and national conferences, contributing to advancements in electrophysiology and cardiac sciences.
