An exciting opportunity has arisen for a highly motivated, enthusiastic individual to join the friendly and supportive Cardiology team at West Herts.
A wide range of procedures are performed in the two recently refurbished catheter laboratories, including:
* PCI and PPCI, pressure wire studies, IVUS/OCT imaging and orbital atherectomy
* Coroventis physiological studies to assess the microcirculation
* Complex CIED implantation, including LBBAP
* Conventional and 3-D mapping EP studies and ablation
The Cardiac Devices Clinic provides an extensive CIED follow-up service for all devices and includes a well-established remote follow-up service. The department supports flexible working and gives physiologists the opportunity to work from home.
Depending on previous experience, there will be opportunities to support the coronary intervention, EP and CIED implant services in the cath lab and lead CIED follow-up outpatient clinics.
Extended working hours may be required during cath lab rotations. The post holder will be primarily based at Watford with rotations at St Albans and Hemel Hempstead Hospitals to cover outpatient activities.
This is a fixed term contract ending on 22/06/2026
The post-holder is expected to use their experience and knowledge to provide a highly professional standard of care. The successful candidate will have BSc in Clinical Physiology, or equivalent, and be expected to have a level of skill and autonomy appropriate to the Band 7 level.
The successful candidate will have experience leading brady and complex device implant and follow-up and/or experience performing conventional and 3-D mapping EP cases as independently. BHRS Devices and/or EP certification, or recognised equivalent, is essential.
Independent invasive technical expertise will be expected during diagnostic and interventional cardiac cath lab cases, including acquisition of haemodynamic data for left and right heart studies, PCI, PPCI and IABP set up and monitoring. Operation of IVUS and OCT systems with skilled image interpretation are required.
The successful candidate will contribute to service improvements, departmental audits, clinical governance and quality assurance. Active involvement in the personal and professional development of other cardiac physiologists and assistant cardiac practitioners is expected.
