is a balloon placed inside the heart that helps the heart beat.

No, EKGs are not included in the CPT code 92960. This code specifically refers to the transcatheter placement of an intracardiac device, typically involving procedures related to cardiac catheterization. EKGs are separate diagnostic tests used to assess heart activity and are billed under different codes.
An intracardiac electrophysiologic study involves inserting catheters into the heart to map electrical signals and diagnose arrhythmias. It allows for precise assessment of the heart's electrical system and helps guide treatment decisions such as ablation therapy. The procedure is performed in a specialized lab by a team of cardiologists and electrophysiologists.

An essential part of the catheterization is measuring intracardiac pressures, or the pressure in the heart's chambers and vessels.
Normal intracardiac pressures include left ventricular pressure around 120/80 mmHg, right ventricular pressure around 25/0 mmHg, left atrial pressure around 5-12 mmHg, and right atrial pressure around 2-6 mmHg. These pressures can vary depending on the phase of the cardiac cycle and individual conditions.
Myxoma is an intracardiac tumor; it is found inside the heart. Seventy five percent of all myxomas are found in the left atrium, and almost all other myxomas are found in the right atrium.
The medical term meaning pertaining to within the heart is "intracardiac."
Microshock is a risk in patients with intracardiac conductors, such as external pacemaker electrodes or saline filled catheters, within the heart. A current as low as 100uAmps directly through the heart, may send a patient directly into ventricular fibrillation.from wikipedia
