FAQ's Related to Cardiologist

A cardiologist specialising in electrophysiology diagnoses and treats disorders of the heart's electrical system. They manage abnormal heart rhythms (arrhythmias) and perform advanced procedures such as pacemaker implantation, catheter ablation, and cardiac rhythm monitoring.

You should consult a cardiac electrophysiologist if you experience palpitations, dizziness, fainting, irregular heartbeat, unexplained rapid or slow heart rate, or have been diagnosed with an arrhythmia or heart failure requiring specialised rhythm management.

Cardiac arrhythmias are abnormalities in the heart's rhythm, causing the heart to beat too fast, too slow, or irregularly. Common arrhythmias include atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, supraventricular tachycardia, and ventricular arrhythmias.

A cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) is a medical device implanted to monitor or regulate the heart's rhythm. These include pacemakers, implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs), and cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) devices.

A leadless pacemaker is a miniature pacemaker implanted directly into the heart without traditional leads (wires). It offers a less invasive alternative for selected patients who require pacing therapy.
