Focus.
A Boston Scientific Academic Video Series

High-density, ultra-high-resolution cardiac mapping systems are revolutionizing electrophysiology. Nowhere is that more evident than at UChicago Medicine where a team of frontier EPs are designing breakthrough diagnostic and ablation strategies. Follow Drs. Roderick Tung and Hemal Nayak into the OR as they provide analysis during live procedures and host pointed conversations with visiting EPs from across the country. This six-part series will give you an inside look at how the most technologically advanced tools, in the most capable hands, can change patient outcomes and make the once impossible, possible.

Watch Episode 1: Meaningful Innovation

Dr. Ken Stein, Chief Medical Officer at Boston Scientific, introduces the Focus series by addressing the state of meaningful medical innovation and the power of high-density mapping.

Series Trailer

Focus is a six-part video series demonstrating the impact of high-density, ultra-high-resolution cardiac mapping on the field of electrophysiology. Drs. Roderick Tung and Hemal Nayak from UChicago Medicine are the hosts for cases and conversations with guest EPs who are taking an in-depth look at this revolutionary technology for the first time.

Episode 2: Simple Is Not Always Simple

Watch as Drs. Tung and Nayak perform a “simple” AFib case from didactic through procedure. Featured guest EPs include Drs. Mohan Viswanathan, Rajesh Venkataraman and Sandeep Goyal.

Episode 3: The Rapid Beat of Progress

We see more now and with greater clarity than ever because we have absorbed and advanced the science of those who have come before us. Drs. Tung and Nayak ablate a typical right atrial flutter and investigate the underlying mechanisms in the interest of inspiring future treatment strategies.

Episode 4: I've Seen This Heart Before

Featured guest EPs include Drs. Saurabh Shah, John Dongas and Jeffrey Neiger. Dr. Shah recommends his patient to UChicago Medicine for a re-do ablation in the Arrhythmia Technology Suite. Dr. Tung performs the complex procedure while Shah and others observe.

Episode 5: A Return to Health

For patient and family, the effectiveness of the technology is measured by the tenor of the care and the outcome of the procedure. Speed and accuracy are the imperatives that help mitigate physician fatigue and patient risk leading to a return to health.
