Pediheart Podcast #26: Novel Means of Epicardial Pacing and Defibrillation

This week we delve into the world of novel means for epicardial pacing and defibrillation in small children or those with congenital heart disease. Dr. Bradley Clark of The Children's Hospital at Montefiore and Dr. Yaniv Bar-Cohen of Children's Hospital of LA discuss their recent works on developing minimally invasive epicardial pacing and defibrillation in infants and those with congenital heart disease. The ability to provide epicardial pacing or defibrillation without the need for a surgical incision is exciting and both experts speak of the challenges and future of this important work.
