Clinical Research Fellow in Cardiology

2 months ago


Leicester, United Kingdom University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust Full time

Applications are invited for a clinical research fellow post, which offers an opportunity to undertake high quality translational clinical research in cardiac electrophysiology and devices linked primarily to conduction system pacing. The main project (entitled ABLATE and PACE HIS Study) will compare the safety and efficacy of distal HIS bundle pacing and AV node ablation to RV pacing in patients with atrial fibrillation and heart failure. The post will also include some other conduction system pacing research projects.

This is a 12 month fixed term post with the potential for an extension for a further 12 months.

It is anticipated that the fellow will work under the direct supervision of consultant cardiac electrophysiologists in the department with direct supervision of Dr Mokhtar Ibrahim who is responsible for conduction system pacing program in the trust. Working and training with other EP and devices consultants will be accessible. The main scope of this post is to support CSP projects .

The applicant will be encouraged to develop towards an MD/PhD thesis. In addition, the post-holder will gain experience in the management of patients with complex arrhythmia, atrial fibrillation and cardiac devices.

Main duties of the job

The post is based within the Department of Cardiology at Glenfield Hospital and is intended to provide comprehensive training in invasive and non-invasive arrhythmia management for individuals intending to pursue a career as a cardiac electrophysiologist. Applicants are expected to have had substantial training in general cardiology and be in possession of an NTN or equivalent. In addition, applicants are expected to have a sound base of experience in device therapy for brady and tachycardia treatments. Basic experience in diagnostic electrophysiology is required and a clear interest and motivation to develop high-level electrophysiology and/or devices skills/experience. Successful candidates will also be encouraged to participate in research activities of the department during their fellowship, as there is good access of established academic support and expertise.

The fellow will be expected to participate in 1-2 outpatient clinics/week within the electrophysiology service and attendance at 2-3 electrophysiology or devices lists a week is anticipated where training will be given in cardiac devices and EP with focus on complex devices and CSP.

Job responsibilities

It is anticipated that the fellow will work under the direct supervision of consultant cardiac electrophysiologists in the department with direct supervision of Dr Mokhtar Ibrahim who is responsible for conduction system pacing program in the trust. Working and training with other EP and devices consultants will be accessible. The main scope of this post is to support CSP projects .

It is expected that the successful applicant will be exposed to some EP interventions as well as comprehensive management of patients with arrhythmic conditions in out-patient and in-patient settings. The majority of the week will be spent in research activity. There will be no regular ward commitment. The fellow will be expected to do 1-2 out-patient clinics per week. The opportunity to join the registrar on-call rota may be available, but is not mandatory. There is ample opportunity to participate in the management of arrhythmia patients at device clinics and whilst this is not the focus of the fellowship, access is available to invasive electrophysiology activities.
