Blood Tests

Blood tests are a crucial tool in assessing your overall health and detecting potential issues before they become serious.

ECG ( Electrocardiogram) Monitoring

An ECG is a simple, non-invasive test that records your heart's electrical activity. It's used to investigate symptoms such as chest pain, palpitations, dizziness, and shortness of breath. ECGs can help detect:

• Arrhythmias (irregular heartbeats)

• Coronary heart disease

• Heart attacks

• Cardiomyopathy (thickened or enlarged heart walls)

This test provides valuable information about your heart's rhythm and function, allowing for early diagnosis and treatment of potential cardiac issues.

24-Hour Blood Pressure Monitoring

This test involves wearing a small digital device connected to a cuff around your upper arm for 24 hours. It unobtrusively records your blood pressure as you go about your daily activities. Benefits of 24-hour blood pressure monitoring include:

• Identifying elevated blood pressure

• Assessing the effectiveness of blood pressure medications throughout the day

• Detecting nighttime blood pressure changes

This comprehensive approach to blood pressure measurement provides a more accurate picture of your cardiovascular health, allowing for better-tailored treatment plans.
