Abstract
In recent years, extraordinary advances have been made in the management of cardiac arrhythmias. Increasingly complex procedures are being performed, and the breadth of conditions for which invasive arrhythmia therapy is indicated continues to grow. In addition to atrial and ventricular ablation procedures for treating arrhythmias, implantable defibrillators and biventricular pacemakers for cardiac resynchronization therapy have made electrophysiology an important part of heart failure management.
