Electrophysiology (EP) is an emerging healthcare science and therapy. EP is a subspecialty of cardiology that focuses on diagnosing and treating cardaic arrhythmias. Technologists assist the cardiologist during diagnostic and invasive procedures including programmed electrical stimulation, sterile scrub technique, electro-anatomical 3D mapping, catheter ablation for cardiac arrhythimias and device implantation for cardiac rhythm management such as pacemakers and other advanced implantable devices. Electrophysiology is a subspecialty of cardiology that focuses on treating heart rhythm abnormalities. The cardiac electrophysiology technologist assists the cardiologist during invasive procedures, including diagnostic electrophysiology studies, arrhythmia mapping, catheter ablation for supraventricular and ventricular tachycardias, and for pacemaker, implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD), and cardiac resynchronization therapy device implantations. The Cardiac Electrophysiology Technology Program leads to an Associate in Science degree.
