Description
Summary:As the complexity and duration of cardiac ablation procedures increase, there is a growing demand for anesthesiologist involvement in the electrophysiology suites for sedation and anesthesia provision, hemodynamic and neuromonitoring, and procedural guidance through transesophageal echocardiography. To deliver high-quality perioperative care, it is important that the anesthesiologist is intimately familiar with the evolving techniques and technologies, the anesthetic options and ventilation strategies, and the anticipated postprocedural complications.
