Chapter
1980s: EP and Pacing
The field of electrophysiology including electrocardiography, pacing, and invasive electrophysiology (EP) has been the subject of great interest since Henry Plummer had established an ECG laboratory at Mayo in...

Chapter
2000s: EP and Pacing
As the new millennium opened, multimodality imaging techniques were united with the electrophysiological catheter techniques developed a generation before. These included traditional fluoroscopy, intracardiac ...

Anatomical correlates relevant to ablation above the semilunar valves for the cardiac electrophysiologist: a study of 603 hearts
Certain outflow tract tachyarrhythmias require ablation above the semilunar valves. Understanding of the regional anatomy of these arrhythmogenic sites is required to avoid complications.

Role of the Automatic Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator in the Post-myocardial Infarction Patient
Patients with a myocardial infarction are at an increased risk of sudden cardiac death largely due to ventricular arrhythmias associated with myocardial scarring. Implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs)...

Early heparinization decreases the incidence of left atrial thrombi detected by intracardiac echocardiography during radiofrequency ablation for atrial fibrillation
We reviewed our experience in managing intracardiac ultrasound-detected left atrial thrombus and analyzed the impact of the timing of heparin therapy on thrombus incidence.
