Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children NHS Foundation Trust
Trust Fellow (Equivalent to Specialist Trainee ST4+) in Paediatric Inherited Cardiovascular Diseases
Applications are invited for the above post. The post is fixed term for 12 months initially. Start Date: Summer 2023
These posts do not attract a National Training Number, but may be useful for out of programme experience for paediatric cardiology trainees, aspiring paediatric cardiologists or adult cardiology trainees with an interest in inherited cardiac conditions, as well as general paediatric trainees with an interest in cardiology. The post has also been approved for sub-specialty training in paediatric inherited cardiovascular diseases.
We are the largest centre in Europe for the care of inherited cardiovascular disease in children, looking after over 6,000 outpatients per year, and are part of the UCLP Inherited Cardiovascular Diseases service. The service at GOSH is part of the Cardiac Unit at Great Ormond... Street Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, and includes disease-specific clinics for cardiomyopathies, inherited arrhythmia syndromes, aortopathy syndromes and rare diseases with cardiovascular involvement. Families are seen at Great Ormond Street for screening, diagnosis, evaluation and management.
For additional information, please contact Dr Juan Kaski and Dr Luke Starling on: j.kaski@ucl.ac.uk + luke.starling@gosh.nhs.uk
The Fellow will contribute to the investigation and management, including the use of novel and emerging therapies, of all patients referred with inherited cardiovascular diseases. The majority of the work involves assessment and detailed investigation of the children and their families, including echocardiographic studies (after suitable training, if required) and ECGs. There will be ample opportunity for clinical research leading to a higher degree. The Fellow team comprises 3 clinical fellows, rotating 4-monthly through the cardiomyopathy, inherited arrhythmia and aortopathy firms, in addition to visiting fellows and clinical research fellows.
The Fellow will liaise with other departments such as metabolic medicine, neuromuscular, rheumatology and clinical genetics. They will work closely with the electrophysiology team given the need for cardiac device therapy in carefully selected patients and the transplant team as some children may eventually require this form of treatment.
