The study is indicated to investigate the cause, location of origin, and best treatment for various abnormal heart rhythms. This type of study is performed by a an Cardiac electrophysiology electrophysiologist and using a single or multiple catheter s situated within the heart through a vein or artery . Preparation It is important for patients not to eat or drink for up to 12 hours before the procedure. This is to prevent vomiting, which can result in aspiration, and even cause severe bleed from the insertion site of the catheter. Failure to follow this simple preparation may result in dangerous consequences. Generally small amounts of water can be consumed up to 2 hours before the exam. Patients should try to schedule the exam at a time when they will be having symptoms and will not need to drive for 2 to 3 days. Procedure This procedure is performed in a cath lab which is a specially equipped operating room.

In electrophysiology , the term gating refers to the opening activation or closing by deactivation or inactivation of ion channels . ref cite book author1 Alberts, Bruce author2 Bray, Dennis author3 Lewis, Julian author4 Raff, Martin author5 Roberts, Keith author6 Watson, James D. title Molecular biology of the cell publisher Garland location New York date 1994 pages 523 547 isbn 0 8153 1620 8 oclc doi accessdate ref When ion channels are in a closed non conducting state, they are impermeable to ions and do not conduct electrical current. When ion channels are in an open state, they conduct electrical current by allowing some ions to pass through them, and thus across the cell membrane plasma membrane of the Cell biology cell . These flows of ions across the membrane result in an electrical current across the membrane. Gating is the process of an ion channel transforming between any of its conducting and non conducting states. The name gating derives from the idea that an ion channel protein includes a pore that is guarded by a gate or several gates, and the gate s must be in the open position for any ions to pass through the pore. A variety of cellular changes can trigger gating, depending on the ion channel, including changes in voltage across the cell membrane voltage gated ion channel s , drugs or hormones interacting with the ion channel ligand gated ion channel s , changes in temperature ref cite journal author Cesare P, Moriondo A, Vellani V, McNaughton PA title Ion channels gated by heat journal Proc.

Cardiologists with expertise in this area are usually referred to as electrophysiologists. Electrophysiologists are trained in the mechanism, function, and performance of the electrical activities of the heart . Electrophysiologists work closely with other cardiologists and cardiac surgeons to assist or guide therapy for heart rhythm disturbances arrhythmia s . They are trained to perform interventional and surgical procedures to treat cardiac arrhythmia. The training required to became an electrophysiologist is long and requires 7 to 8 years after medical school in the U.S. . Three years of Internal Medicine residency medicine residency , three years of Clinical Cardiology fellowship medicine fellowship , and one to two in most instances years of Clinical Cardiac Electrophysiology.

Orphan date February 2009 A tetrode is a group of wire bundles used in electrophysiology electrophysiological studies in the neuroscience s to record extracellular field potential s from nervous tissue, e.g. the brain . They consist of bundles of 4 thin e.g. 30 m diameter wires glued together. The idea is that the wires are spaced close enough to each other to detect overlapping populations of neurons , but wide enough so that the exact waveform of the individual neurons are different on each of the wires. These differences can then be used to cluster individual neurons from the population of spikes. Clustering Clustering techniques involve both examining the waveform of individual spikes, and examining the spike height across all four channels.
