Andrey Kozlenok, MD, PhD
Head of Department

On July 1, 2018, five departments of functional testing of Almazov Centre were joined into an interclinical department of functional testing and ultrasound.

The specialists of our Department perform world-class diagnostic studies for children and adults in all areas of CVD, respiratory and nervous system diseases using an integrated approach of traditional procedures and high-tech methods.

Structure:

Major areas

  • Non-invasive diagnostic methods in patients with ventricular arrhythmias
  • Atrial fibrillation (stress testing, Holter monitoring with data telemetry via Internet)
  • Non-invasive electrocardiographic imaging (ECGI)
  • Risk stratification for sudden cardiac death

New medical technologies and invention patents (jointly with the Electrocardiology Research Laboratory):

  • Method for diagnosing ischemic ventricular arrhythmias in CAD patients
  • Method for diagnosing hemodynamically significant coronary artery atherosclerosis.
  • Differential diagnosis method in wide QRS tachycardia with transesophageal echocardiography
  • Patient ECG telemetry
  • Method for diagnosing rare life-threatening rhythm and conduction disorders with long-term ECG monitoring and telemetry
  • Method for diagnosing ventricular arrhythmias with stress testing
  • Method for selecting antiarrhythmic therapy with long-term Holter ECG monitoring and telemetry

Participation in State Assignments

From 2015 to 2017, the specialists of the Department took part in the state assignment «Identification of new markers of CVD and endocrine disorders and signs of disadaptation to physical activity based on cardiopulmonary testing and mass spectrometry» (supervised by A. Berezina).

Since 2018, we have been carrying out the state assignment on the «Technologies for diagnosis and effectiveness assessment in the treatment of socially significant diseases using multicomponent microanalysis of exhaled air» (supervised by A. Berezina).

Since 2020, the Department specialists have started a new topic of the state assignment “Centre for remote monitoring of physiological parameters of a high-risk CVD patient and personalized decision-making algorithms based on real-time data.”

Training and education

The Electrocardiology Research Laboratory conducts 4 proprietary training courses each semester:

  • Clinical electrocardiology and non-invasive arrhythmology
  • Electrocardiographic diagnosis of cardiac conduction disorders
  • Algorithms for managing patients with arrhythmias
  • Holter and longitudinal ECG monitoring
