HEALTHY HEART SCREENING

A healthy heart screening consultation is a great way to ensure that you don’t have any evidence of heart disease.

Why Should I Participate In A Healthy Heart Screen?

Often patients with no cardiac symptoms worry that they are at risk of heart disease in the future.  This may be because of a family history of heart disease, or because of worry from taking part in sport.  You may be concerned about the risks of starting an exercise programme to improve your fitness.

What does a Healthy Heart Screen Involve?

The process involves a consultation including a focussed assessment of your medical history and any history of heart conditions in your family.  You will also have an electrocardiogram test (ECG).  Your doctor may also suggest an echocardiogram (ultrasound) to assess the shape and function of the heart.  Often this is enough to reassure you that there is no cause for concern, but sometimes there may be a need for other tests based on the findings from your ECG and echocardiogram.
