Abstract
Cardiac Electrophysiology and Radiofrequency Ablation (EPS & RFA) is one of the newer modalities of treatment in the field of cardiology. This method of treatmentis directed towards cardiac arrhythmias. Gone are the days when a doctor had to rely on medications to treat such conditions. It's an interventional technique which requires catheters, an EP lab system, cardiac catheterization laboratory and an Electrophysiologist.

Summary
Cardiac Electrophysiology and Radiofrequency Ablation (EPS & RFA) is one of the newer modalities of treatment in the field of cardiology. This method of treatment is directed towards cardiac arrhythmias. It was followed by direct current application via catheters. First catheter based ablation of atrioventricular junction in human was done in 1982. Electrophysiology and radiofrequency ablation is most effective in treating arrhythmias due to atrioventricular nodal re-entry and those due to by pass tracts, with more sophisticated instruments and growing experience it is growing success in atrial tachycardias, recurrent atrial flutter and idiopathic ventricular tachycardias
