The cardiology department includes onsite advanced cardiac imaging including CMR, 3D echo, TOE, CTCA and SPECT. There is a full EP service including complex devices and AF ablation.

    Main duties of the job

    The Royal Free represents the largest stand-alone PCI in London with off-site surgical cover provided by surgeons at Barts with whom there are strong links including a regular JCC meeting. There is a full invasive and interventional programme including diagnostic angiography, PCI, permanent pacemaker systems, complex device and EP programme. In newly renovated Cath labs with the latest Siemens ICONO system, integrated adjunctive technology including intra-coronary physiological measurements (FFR, Coroventis etc), and imaging (IVUS, OCT) are routinely applied. Calcium modification with rotational atherectomy and intravascular lithoptripsy (Shockwave) is available and we also have a programme of complex PCI managing LMS, CTO and bifurcations with a dedicated PCI MDT. Elective and inter-hospital transfer patients are treated as 'day cases' via a dedicated day interventional unit. We are also developing a virtual pathway for low risk NSTEMI cases (ALTAS). The department is one of the busiest of London's dedicated Heart Attack centres providing 24/7 on-call emergency services for primary PCI and the appointed candidate would participate in a PPCI oncall rota. We have been at the forefront of developing thrombectomy services for acute pulmonary embolism and further training in this field would be available for interested candidates although will not form part of the core job plan.
