The Robert Paine, MD Heart Institute at
St. Luke's is dedicated to advanced technological procedures that are used to study the heart's electrical function.
Electrophysiologists can locate sites inside the heart that may be causing
arrhythmias. The electrophysiologist works with a specially trained team of nurses and technologists to study and treat
arrhythmias. Based on the location of the arrhythmia, a range of treatment options is available, all of which will be performed in the EP lab. Those treatment options include
radio-frequency ablation,
pacemaker and implantable cardiac
defibrillator (ICD) implantations.
