Electrophysiology Accreditation
Electrophysiology (EP) v1 is an operational model that merges the latest science and process improvement methodologies within the Electrophysiology lab. EP v1 is the result of diligent work by leading electrophysiologists. It incorporates recent guidelines and expert consensus statements by recognized professional organizations regarding the care of the electrophysiology patient. A facility’s eligibility to participate in EP accreditation is dictated by the specific procedures it performs in the EP Lab.
