Only Electrophysiology Services In
Mercer County
 Our
brand new, state-of-the-art facility here at St.
Francis Medical Center is the only lab in
Mercer County to diagnose and treat conditions
related to the heart's electrical system.
Tilt Table Test: used to evaluate and diagnose unexplained
vasovagal syncope (fainting) or neuro-cardiogenic episodes.
EP Studies: performed to establish the site or
origin of a tachycardia (fast heart rate) or a bradycardia (slow
heart rate) and can also gather information about certain
abnormal heart rhythms (arrythmias) that may require an insertion
of a pacemaker or a implantable defribillator or catheter ablation.
EP With Ablation: non-surgical technique that destroys
(ablates) parts of the abnormal electrical pathway that causes abnormal
heart rhythm.
Pacemaker Insertion: implant in patients to regulate
the heart's rhythm and prevent the heart from slowing down.
Defribillator Insertion: implant in patients to
treat dangerously fast heart rates that occur in the lower chambers
of the heart (ventricles).
Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT): implant
in patients with heart failure, to pace the lower chambers of the
heart to improve your heart's normal synchrony.
Dr. John Caplan and staff are working on Cardiac Resynchronization
therapies
7:00am to 4:00pm Monday through Friday
