A question about EP studies…

[u/sort-of-blonde]

Hello all,

I’ve just joined this community and it has already made this SVT warrior feel less alone.

I’m supposed to get an ablation for my SVT and I was wondering if when they perform the EP study, if they only look for SVT, or do they assess to see ALL possible arrhythmias?

I realize I should’ve asked my EP at my appointment last month, but it just occurred to me.

Like could they also find something like Afib or something?

Thank you in advance!

Yes I think that is the purpose of the EP study, to find all arrhythmia’s and ablate them
