Clinical cardiac electrophysiology (also referred to as cardiac electrophysiology or simply EP), is a branch of the medical specialty of cardiology concerned with the study and treatment of rhythm disorders of the heart. [1] Cardiologists with expertise in this area are usually referred to as electrophysiologists.
Cardiac electrophysiology is a branch of cardiology and basic science focusing on the electrical activities of the heart. The term is usually used in clinical context, to describe studies of such phenomena by invasive (intracardiac) catheter recording of spontaneous activity as well as of cardiac responses to programmed electrical stimulation ...
Clinical electrophysiology is the application of electrophysiology principles to medicine. The two main branches of this discipline are electrotherapy and electrophysiologic testing (EEG, electromyography, etc.) Clinical electrophysiology can be utilized in the study and treatment of various physiological conditions, and most notably in clinical cardiac electrophysiology.
According to WebMD, an electrophysiologist, also known as a cardiac electrophysiologist or cardiac EP, is a cardiologist who focuses on testing for and treating problems involving irregular heart ...
An electrophysiogist is a scientist who studies the electrical properties of cells and tissues. Electrophysiology can be used to study a range of different processes from, single ion channels (using patch-clamp electrophysiology) right up to cardiac electrophysiology which can be used diagnostically.
Electrophysiology (from Greek ἥλεκτ, ēlektron, "amber" [see the etymology of "electron"]; φύσις, physis, "nature, origin"; and -λογία, -logia) is the branch of physiology that studies the electrical properties of biological cells and tissues.
The electrophysiologist begins by moving the electrodes along the conduction pathways and along the inner walls of the heart, measuring the electrical activity along the way. Doctors conduct an electrophysiology study in the hospital's cardiac catheterization laboratory
Pollard’s family called police at about 1 a.m. Tuesday to say she had not been seen since going out at about 5 p.m. Monday to search for Pepper, her cat.
