Jakrin Kewcharoen, MD

HS Clinical Instructor

CLINICAL INTERESTS
Dr. Kewcharoen specializes in the comprehensive management and catheter ablation of complex atrial and ventricular arrhythmias. His clinical expertise spans paroxysmal and persistent atrial fibrillation, high-density mapping of post-ablation atrial tachycardias and atypical flutters, standard supraventricular tachycardias (AVNRT, AVRT, focal AT), and endocardial or epicardial ablation of ventricular arrhythmias across structural and non-structural heart disease. Additionally, his practice encompasses the implantation and optimization of cardiac implantable electronic devices (pacemakers, ICDs, and CRT) as well as the risk stratification of sudden cardiac death, unexplained syncope, and inherited arrhythmia syndromes.

RESEARCH INTERESTS
Working under Dr. Zian Tseng's lab, Dr. Kewcharoen’s research focuses on the epidemiology, risk stratification, and prevention of sudden cardiac death. His work integrates translational genomics to investigate novel substrate drivers of arrhythmogenesis and heart failure outcomes, specifically the role of Clonal Hematopoiesis of Indeterminate Potential (CHIP) mutations. Utilizing the 12-lead ECG, he evaluates electrogram biomarkers to predict true arrhythmic events, clarify underlying cardiac pathology, and predict cardiac arrest survivors. Additionally, he collaborates on national and international multicenter initiatives to advance risk stratification in Brugada syndrome and inherited arrhythmia disorders.
