Irakli Giorgberidze

Dr. Irakli Giorgberidze is an Associate Professor of Medicine-Cardiology at Baylor College of Medicine and Director of the Arrhythmia Service at the Cardiac Electrophysiology Laboratory of the Michael E. DeBakey VA Medical Center. His expertise lies in clinical cardiac electrophysiology, arrhythmia management, and innovative techniques in catheter ablation. He has over 20 years of practice experience, emphasizing cutting-edge technologies and mentoring cardiology trainees and electrophysiology fellows.

Education: Clinical Fellowship at Brigham and Women's Hospital (Harvard Medical School), Clinical Cardiac Electrophysiology Fellowship at Baylor College of Medicine, and Internal Medicine training at George Washington University Medical Center. Holds a DSc in Cardiovascular Diseases and MD from Tbilisi State Medical University.

Research focuses on arrhythmia treatment innovations, including catheter ablation techniques, vein of Marshall ethanol infusion, and cardiac implantable devices. His work explores outcomes in atrial fibrillation management and device-related complications. Notable achievements include the 2022 Top Cardiac Electrophysiologist award from FINDATOPDOC.COM.

Key contributions include studies on left atrial appendage closure outcomes, leadless pacemaker complications, and digoxin therapy in heart failure. His translational research bridges clinical practice with device development and patient safety in electrophysiology interventions.
