Electrophysiologists, or heart rhythm specialists, are cardiologists with three additional years of training. They provide electrophysiology evaluation and treatment, such as implanting pacemakers and performing nonsurgical analysis of the electrical conduction system of the heart. Electrophysiology studies help identify the cause of an irregular heartbeat.
Novant Health is encouraging the community to take the 10,000 Healthy Hearts Challenge by completing the online heart disease risk assessment that analyzes cardiovascular risk factors, such as blood pressure, cigarette smoking, diabetes and body mass index.
