Electrophysiology

Anyone’s heart can flutter or skip a beat. Mild palpitations can be harmless, but millions of Americans experience arrhythmias, with atrial fibrillation (AFib or AF) being the most common. If you experience irregularities in your heart’s natural rhythm – whether it beats too quickly, too slowly or simply in an irregular way – it is important you seek a specialized type of cardiac care known as electrophysiology. Liberty Hospital Heart Center is equipped with the latest electrophysiology expertise, techniques and technologies, from the newest ablation treatments and devices to state-of-the-art EP Navigator heart-mapping technology.
