Heart of a Champion Day is Atrium Health’s annual FREE sports-specific health screening. What makes this event unique is that every athlete receives an electrocardiogram (EKG), which can detect abnormal electrical activity in the heart.
This screening can identify some dangerous conditions that might not be detected in traditional sports screenings.
