Electrophysiology Lab

One Block in the second year and one block in the third year done at Rush university medical center.
During these two blocks, fellows develop essential understanding of noninvasive and invasive electrophysiology techniques, arrhythmia management, and Pacemaker interrogation. Under the supervision of the electrophysiology faculty ( Dr. Trohman and Dr. Krishnan ), fellows are responsible for inpatient consultations,  and help in the outpatient clinics.
Studies performed:

  • Pacemaker implantation 
  • Intracardiac defibrillator implantation 
  • Electrophysiology studies  
  • Advanced intracardiac mapping
  • Intracardiac ultrasound
  • Trans-septal punctures
  • Catheter ablations for both supraventricular and ventricular arrhythmias
  • Holters and Loop recorders 
  • Tilt-table testing 
  • Signal-averaged EKG interpretation
