What lies behind IAP, IVP, AH, HV, and LAVA? How can a SVT be differentiated through stimulation maneuvers? How is the mapping of complex arrhythmias achieved? The techniques of invasive electrophysiology are rapidly evolving and becoming increasingly sophisticated. This book explains the essential fundamentals of the field in an understandable manner, richly illustrated and with many practical tips. It specifically targets beginners who are seeking an overview of all aspects of invasive electrophysiology and wish to understand the connections.
