Applicants must be currently enrolled in or have completed an ACGME-accredited general Cardiology fellowship in order to apply. Fellows will require level 2 certification during their general cardiology fellowship. Level 3 is designed for trainees who receive both diagnostic and interventional cardiac catheterization training. The fellows will have completed a minimum of eight months over a three year period in the cardiac catheterization laboratory including participation in performance of a minimum if diagnostic cardiac catheterizations.
Fellows should be board eligible for cardiovascular disease and secure full medical licensure in the state of Illinois prior to starting their interventional cardiology fellowship training. We accept applications via ERAS only. Ahmad Abu-Halimah, MD. Brent Anderson, MD. Jayant Bagai, MD. David Dantzler, MD. Pete P. Fong, MD. Mark D. Glazer, MD. They are also expected to participate in a variety of conferences, including:.

Please submit your application via ERAs by December 20 th. Our program ID is Interviews will be held on a Saturday in early January for positions starting the following year 18 months later.
As part of the largest teaching hospital of Harvard Medical School, we train residents, fellows and current providers in innovative therapies. Information for health care professionals about the latest cardiovascular breakthroughs, research and clinical advances from Mass General. Mass General provides a welcoming and supportive environment for employees of all ethnic backgrounds, ages, lifestyles and physical abilities. Exercise for adults with congenital heart disease poses many unique challenges.
In this presentation from July 20, , Dr. Doreen DeFaria Yeh reviews the specific medical issues that develop among children and adults born with a complex congenital heart condition called tetralogy of Fallot. Not even a global pandemic, with all its difficult diversions and delays, could stop the nurses of Ellison 9 from staying on track with a project timeline they had set before the COVID outbreak. Follow the Dr. The use of accelerometers enables researchers to provide the most objective evidence to date of the link between physical activity and atrial fibrillation.
Home - Heart Center The Interventional Cardiology Fellowship provides training in clinical interventional cardiology where fellows master the skills of percutaneous coronary interventional procedures.
Contact Information. Explore This Fellowship. Objectives of the Fellowship The primary goal of the Interventional Cardiology Fellowship is to provide comprehensive training in the diagnosis, care and endovascular treatment of patients with cardiovascular disease.
The fellowship program provides the opportunity to acquire procedural expertise including but not limited to: Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty Cutting balloon angioplasty Stent deployment Rotational atherectomy Directional atherectomy Laser atherotomy Mechanical thrombectomy Rheolytic thrombectomy Intravascular ultrasound Optical coherence tomography currently under investigation Distal protection devices In additional to learning techniques for percutaneous coronary intervention, fellows will be exposed to non-coronary cardiac interventions and management of peripheral vascular disease.
Non-coronary interventions include: Percutaneous balloon valvuloplasty Percutaneous valve replacement currently under investigation Transcatheter closure of intracardiac communications ASD, PFO, PDA, VSD Alcohol septal ablation for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy Catheter treatment of congenital heart disease Peripheral evaluations and intervention include percutaneous treatment of arterial disease in the following distributions: Carotid Subclavian Renal Mesenteric Lower extremity Clinical investigations include the use of novel devices for percutaneous treatment of coronary artery disease, non-coronary cardiac interventions such as percutaneous valve replacement, drug-eluting stent studies, stem cell and angiogenesis factor treatment for patients with end-stage coronary and peripheral arterial disease and novel imaging technologies.
Curriculum Primary Teaching Institution Fellows spend 12 months assigned to the cardiac catheterization laboratory at Mass General. Outpatient Clinic Fellows rotate in the outpatient clinics of the Interventional Cardiology staff physicians one half-day per week over the course of the one-year training program.
Teaching Experience Due to the diverse teaching activities conducted at Mass General, fellows have the opportunity to participate in training medical students as well as residents from various GME training programs e. A few programs offer an additional non-ACGME accredited year of training in structural heart disease or peripheral interventions.
I am currently an interventional fellow at Brown University with plans to train in structural heart disease.
As an interventional fellow, my day begins around 7 a. This is an invaluable educational experience as we learn from experienced faculty, techniques and skills that may not routinely be available in textbooks. The rest of our days are spent in the cardiac catheterization laboratory planning and performing procedures such as left and right heart catheterization, pericardiocentesis, cardiac biopsies, percutaneous coronary, valvular and peripheral interventions.
We take call from 5 p.
