Clinical cardiac electrophysiology fellowship teaching objectives for the new millennium.
The eld of cardiac electrophysiology has grown and changed dramatically since the last guideline on fellowship training objectives was published in 1988. Not only has the ability to diagnose arrhythmic diseases improved, but also the knowledge of genetic contributions and mechanisms of these disorders has expanded. Moreover, the treatment of these arrhythmias, including ablation and implantab...

متن کاملA novel radiation protection drape reduces radiation exposure during fluoroscopy guided electrophysiology procedures.
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate a novel disposable lead-free radiation protection drape for decreasing radiation scatter during electrophysiology procedures. BACKGROUND In recent years, there has been an exponential increase in the number of electrophysiology (EP) procedures exposing patients, operators and laboratory staff to higher radiation doses. METHODS The RADPAD w...
متن کاملRadiation exposure to the child during cardiac catheterization.
Few data are available regarding radiation exposure to children during cardiac catheterization. Using lithium fluoride thermoluminescent dosimeters, radiation exposure was measured during precatheterization chest roentgenography, fluoroscopy (hemodynamic assessment phase of catheterization) and cineangiography in 30 infants and children, ages 3 days to 21 years. Dosimeters were placed over the ...
متن کاملResearch on reducing radiation exposure during cardiac angiography
Background/Purpose Recent advances in devices involving cardiac catheterization, especially interventional procedures, has lead to increase in examination time and consequent increase in fluoroscopy time and number of filming exposures. Increase in radiation exposure to the patients and the medical personnel has been closed up as a serious agenda. In this study, we focused on the factors that l...
