Can I fly after having an electrophysiology study and ablation?

You can usually fly within a week of your procedure, as long as you feel well and your consultant is happy with your recovery. To reduce the risk of blood clots, it’s best to avoid long-haul flights for the first week and stay well hydrated when you travel. Your consultant will give you personalised advice based on your health and the type of procedure you’ve had.
