Participation in professional associations:

• President of the All-Russian Scientific Society of Arrhythmologists
• member of the European Working Group on Clinical Electrophysiology and Pacing
• board member of the European Society of Arrhythmology
• member of the World Society for Stimulation and Electrophysiology
• Member of the American Association of Thoracic Surgeons

Sphere of scientific and practical interests:

• study of clinical electrophysiology of the heart and the formation of arrhythmia mechanisms
• arrhythmogenic heart dysplasia, development of methods for its treatment using cryo- or radiofrequency destruction
• clinical electrophysiology of the heart, development of new algorithms for the differential diagnosis of supraventricular tachyarrhythmias, atrial fibrillation and life-threatening ventricular tachycardias and ventricular fibrillation, including using the original method of multichannel cardiac mapping (non-invasive electrocardiophysiology).
• development and implementation in clinical practice of an improved technique "Labyrinth": treatment of atrial fibrillation on a beating heart with comorbidity

The results of A.Sh. Revishvili's scientific research were used in the creation of the latest generation of implantable cardioverter-defibrillators, which are widely used for the prevention of sudden cardiac death in many countries of the world.

Based on the study of the electrophysiological mechanisms of atrial fibrillation, Academician Revishvili proposed a new approach to the prevention and treatment of this type of cardiac arrhythmia.
