Our fellows will rotate through our five high-volume electrophysiology labs, one using the latest generation of the Stereotaxis Magnetic Navigation System, which results in >3000 procedures performed each year.
The Clinical Cardiac Electrophysiology Fellowship at Baylor Scott & White the Heart Hospital Plano, is a program accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME). A robust program whose setting is in a tertiary referral center in Plano, resulting in an experience for our fellows across a wide range of electrophysiologic disorders and allows for the development of expertise in an extensive range of diagnostic and therapeutic modalities.
The program has a 1:6 student: faculty ratio (core faculty), in addition to collaborative work with the Cardiovascular Imaging Team, Structural Heart Team, Interventional Cardiology Team and Cardiovascular Surgery Team. This comprehensive approach with diverse medical specialties allows for a comprehensive training experience, allowing the fellow to develop expertise in all therapeutic modalities including medical management, catheter ablation, and device implantation. Fellows who express an interest also have the opportunity to develop expertise in advanced cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) lead management, including laser-assisted and mechanical lead extraction.
Fellows treat arrhythmia patients in both inpatient and outpatient settings to observe, diagnose, manage, and judge the effectiveness of treatments for these patients. Fellows are given the opportunity to assume continuing and increasing responsibility for both acutely and chronically ill patients to learn the natural history of a wide variety of cardiac arrhythmias and how to treat them.
Fellows will achieve experience in outpatient management of arrhythmias through a variety of outpatient clinics. These will include rotation among the EP faculty members’ clinics, with educational exposure to implantable device management (pacemaker, ICD, ILR, and central sleep apnea devices), and participation in multidisciplinary clinics, including postoperative arrhythmia clinics, hybrid AF management clinic (both of which utilize a team approach with cardiovascular surgery), and left atrial appendage closure clinic. This will afford the fellow in training the opportunity to observe and manage patients longitudinally and to gain experience with device follow-up and management.
Throughout training, fellows have increasing responsibility in invasive and non-invasive procedures in the EP laboratory.
Trainees are provided with ample didactic input to make the most of their clinical experience. Fellows are expected to make a concerted effort to attend as many conferences as possible.
We encourage interested fellows to engage in clinical research as well. A meaningful experience could include discussion and formulation of hypothesis and study design with goal to publish in a peer-reviewed journal.
There is a weekly research conference and a monthly conference where investigator-initiated and industry-sponsored trials are discussed. This conference includes discussion on how research is explained to patients and applied to patient care.
In addition to one-on-one coaching from faculty, fellows learn the basics of research through a dedicated monthly research lecture.
