What Is Cardiac Electrophysiology?

Cardiac electrophysiology is the study and treatment of heart rhythm problems.

On the street, electricity flows through stoplights, creating signals to start and stop traffic. As a result, cars and people can move safely and more efficiently. In a similar way, electrical signals flow through the heart and signal the heart to beat safely and efficiently. When the heart’s electrical signals don’t work as they should, the heartbeat can become too fast, too slow, or irregular. These abnormal rhythms are called “arrhythmias”. Arrhythmias can be caused by abnormal electrical connections, genetic predispositions, an infection, or an acquired problem in the heart. 

Doctors who study and treat arrhythmias are cardiac electrophysiologists. At Lurie Children’s, our electrophysiologists diagnose and treat all types of arrhythmias. We treat children, adolescents, fetuses before birth, and adults who were born with congenital heart disease.


Why Choose Lurie Children's?

The Electrophysiology (EP) Program at Lurie Children’s is the largest program in Illinois and one of the premier programs in the nation. We are a high-volume center for children in Chicago and Illinois, and we evaluate children referred for second opinions nationally and internationally. Our experienced team of electrophysiologists diagnose and treat abnormal heart rhythms. We are also a high-volume pediatric interventional center, providing invasive correction of the heart rhythm through cardiac ablation and implantation of cardiac rhythm devices.

Most importantly, we have decades of experience in heart rhythm care, offering judgement and family-centered care in children with heart rhythm disease. With advanced testing, expert intervention, and a thoughtful approach to care, children with arrhythmias can lead healthy lives. Many lead entirely normal lives, unencumbered by the arrhythmia that brought them to our care.

Parents feel confident in our care because:

  • We provide exceptional heart care. U.S.News & World Report consistently ranks us among the top hospitals for pediatric cardiology and heart surgery. This means we are able to diagnosis and treat children with the most complex heart rhythm issues.
  • Our team is integrated into every part of the Heart Center. Our electrophysiology team includes highly specialized physicians, trained pediatric arrhythmia nurses, advanced practice providers, and genetic counselors, who are on call 24/7 to help manage children and young adults with all types of arrhythmias.
  • We provide care near you. In addition to providing superior care at our main campus in downtown Chicago, we have community clinics, where you will receive care from the same electrophysiology team as our downtown hospital. We bring quality care to where you are. View a list of our electrophysiology locations throughout the region. 
  • Care is a team approach. Your child’s care will benefit from the comprehensive experience and knowledge of our team of five electrophysiologists. Our specialists collaborate frequently and meet weekly to discuss challenging clinical cases and optimize care.
  • We use the latest ablation technology. We have been one of the leading centers to use cutting edge ablation technology including radiofrequency ablation, which uses heat to alter the tissue causing the arrhythmia and cryoablation, which uses cold to freeze the tissue. We use advanced three-dimensional imaging during procedures to make procedures safer and faster. Our center has been a research leader in ablation for over 30 years.
  • Streamlined complex care. We recognize that many of our cardiac patients require vital care beyond cardiology. We work with you and your other medical teams to streamline your child’s multidisciplinary care. We strive to improve the overall patient experience and to minimize hospital visits.
  • Our complication rate is exceedingly low. We pride ourselves on being among the safest centers in the country for invasive electrophysiology procedures. We are one of the leading centers in the national effort to track safety and efficacy in invasive pediatric electrophysiology.
  • Personalized approach. We get to know our families and patients, communicate our approach to care in plain language, and work with you to develop a treatment plan that makes sense for the patient and the family.
  • Our team is at the heart of innovative research. Our electrophysiology team is at the forefront pediatric electrophysiology research, having over 100 publications and dedicated physician-scientists who make up our core group of five electrophysiologists.

Philosophy of Care 

Our goal is to provide expert heart rhythm care, merging exceptional clinical skill with world-class research. We partner with patients and their families to respond to your family’s priorities and goals.

Our Numbers Speak Volumes

Our program has established one of the largest clinical volumes in the country. Our team has performed thousands of invasive heart rhythm procedures. These procedures include diagnostic cardiac catheterization, ablation of arrhythmia substrate, implantation of pacemakers and defibrillators, implantation of subcutaneous rhythm recording devices, and much more. Each year, we perform and interpret over 32,000 non-invasive electrophysiology studies, including electrocardiograms, Holter monitors, event monitors and more. We follow several hundred patients with pacemakers and defibrillators, many of whom we follow in partnership with the adult congenital care program.

What to Expect at Your First Appointment

Please plan on initial visits taking approximately two and a half hours. This will allow plenty of time for an electrophysiologist to meet with you and your child, do a physical exam, discuss symptoms, ask questions about the patient’s and family medical history.

If any previous cardiac testing has been done, please fax this to our office in advance of the visit to 312.227.9640, or bring it with you to your visit for your provider to review.

The electrophysiologist may want to perform one or more heart tests at your visit, which may include:

  • Electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG). An ECG is a non-invasive test, performed through sensors (electrodes) to detect electrical activity of the heart. An ECG measures the timing and duration of electrical phases in the heartbeat. This test takes approximately 10 minutes and can be performed on children of any age. Almost every child referred to an electrophysiologist will have an ECG at the first visit.
  • Echocardiogram (Echo). An echocardiogram is a noninvasive test of the heart that uses sound waves to produce images of the heart’s size, structure, and function. This test takes approximately one hour. In some cases, we may ask that your child have an echocardiogram before the visit or on another day after the visit. A nurse or member of our scheduling staff will discuss that with you if the doctor wants to coordinate an echocardiogram on a separate day.
  • Holter Monitor. A Holter monitor is a portable ECG device. The patient will have this device placed before leaving clinic and wear it for 24 hours to record the heart’s activity as the patient goes about his or her normal daily routine.
  • Event Recorder. This is a wearable ECG device which is worn for longer durations of time, typically 30 days. It is used to detect sporadic arrhythmias, unlikely to be captured by a one-day Holter monitor. The patient will press a button to document when they feel any symptoms.
  • Exercise Stress Test (EST). Some patients have worse rhythm problems during exercise. During an EST, the heart’s activity is monitored while the patient runs on a treadmill or pedals a stationary bike. Exercise stress tests are not usually done in children younger than elementary school age.

Cardiovascular Genetics Program

You or your child may have been referred to electrophysiology because of a condition that can be inherited in families. Examples of this include long QT syndrome, Brugada syndrome, or CPVT. In some cases there are rhythm concerns about a heart muscle disease or cardiomyopathy. In other cases, children are referred because a family member has passed away or had a life-threatening arrhythmia. In these cases, the Electrophysiology Program works closely with our Cardiovascular Genetics Program. In most cases, you will see both a physician within the Electrophysiology Program and a genetic counselor.

POTS Clinic

It is common for patients to be referred to an electrophysiology clinic for episodes of fainting or syncope. In some cases, patients are diagnosed with a separate illness called “Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome”, or POTS.  Lurie Children’s is one of the world leaders in POTS and patients are evaluated in our specialty POTS clinic.
