Job Description

An Electrophysiology (EP) Technologist works in a specialized clinical setting, assisting in the diagnosis and treatment of heart rhythm disorders (arrhythmias) through electrophysiology procedures. EP Techs play a crucial role in supporting electrophysiologists (cardiologists specializing in the heart's electrical system) during diagnostic tests such as electrophysiology studies (EPS) and catheter ablations. They are responsible for preparing patients, operating specialized equipment, and assisting in procedures to treat abnormal heart rhythms, ensuring patient safety and comfort.

Key Responsibilities:

  1. Pre-Procedure Preparation:

    • Prepare the electrophysiology (EP) lab for procedures, ensuring all necessary equipment (e.g., catheters, electrophysiology mapping systems, defibrillators, and recording devices) is sterile, functioning, and ready.
    • Verify patient information, review medical history, and ensure that all necessary documentation, consents, and pre-procedure requirements are completed.
    • Assist patients in preparing for procedures, including explaining the process, positioning them correctly, and ensuring they are comfortable.
    • Review the procedure plan with the electrophysiology team and assist in setting up the necessary equipment to meet the specific needs of each patient.
  2. Assisting During Electrophysiology Procedures:

    • Assist the electrophysiologist during diagnostic and interventional procedures such as electrophysiology studies (EPS), catheter ablations, pacemaker and implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) insertions, and cardiac mapping.
    • Handle and operate specialized equipment, such as 3D mapping systems, electrophysiology catheters, electrical stimulator devices, and cardiac imaging systems, to assist in precise diagnosis and treatment.
    • Monitor the patient's vital signs (e.g., heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen saturation) during procedures and report any changes or abnormalities to the physician.
    • Assist in performing intracardiac recordings, stimulation studies, and mapping of electrical pathways to identify arrhythmias and determine appropriate treatment.
    • Prepare and administer medications, such as antiarrhythmic drugs or sedatives, as directed by the physician.
  3. Post-Procedure Care and Monitoring:

    • Monitor patients post-procedure for any complications, including arrhythmias, bleeding at the insertion site, or adverse reactions to medications.
    • Provide post-procedure instructions to patients and their families, including care of the catheter insertion site, activity restrictions, and signs to watch for indicating complications.
    • Assist in the transfer of patients to recovery or the appropriate unit, ensuring patient safety and comfort during transport.
  4. Equipment Maintenance and Troubleshooting:

    • Ensure the proper calibration, operation, and maintenance of electrophysiology equipment, including mapping systems, ablation catheters, and recording devices.
    • Perform routine checks to ensure that all equipment is functional before each procedure and troubleshoot any issues that may arise during the procedure.
    • Clean and sterilize equipment according to infection control standards to ensure readiness for future procedures.
  5. Collaboration with Medical Team:

    • Work closely with electrophysiologists, nurses, and other healthcare professionals in the EP lab to ensure smooth and efficient patient care during procedures.
    • Communicate effectively with the team to provide feedback on patient progress, equipment status, and any issues or concerns that arise during procedures.
    • Participate in case discussions or meetings to help plan for complex cases or review patient outcomes.
  6. Patient Education and Support:

    • Educate patients on the electrophysiology procedure, including what to expect before, during, and after the procedure, and answer any questions to reduce anxiety.
    • Provide emotional support to patients and their families throughout the diagnostic and treatment process, ensuring they feel informed and reassured.
  7. Documentation and Record-Keeping:

    • Accurately document all aspects of the procedure, including patient information, equipment used, and any changes in the patient's condition.
    • Ensure that all records are completed accurately in the electronic health record (EHR) and follow hospital policies and regulatory guidelines.
  8. Compliance with Safety and Infection Control Protocols:

    • Adhere to hospital safety and infection control standards, including sterile technique, radiation safety protocols, and HIPAA regulations.
    • Follow the guidelines for proper patient positioning, catheter insertion, and safe handling of equipment during procedures.
    • Ensure that the EP lab is maintained in a clean and organized manner, reducing the risk of infection and promoting a safe working environment.
  9. Professional Development and Training:

    • Stay up to date with the latest advancements in electrophysiology procedures, technologies, and best practices.
    • Participate in continuing education programs and certification to enhance skills and knowledge in electrophysiology and cardiology.
    • Assist in training new staff or students, sharing knowledge and experience about electrophysiology procedures and equipment.
