In today’s fast-paced world, maintaining cardiovascular health has become more crucial than ever. At Shalom Medical Clinic, we are committed to helping you take proactive steps to ensure a healthy heart. Our Cardiovascular Clinic offers a range of specialized services designed to assess, monitor, and improve your heart health.
Why Cardiovascular Health Matters
Your heart is the engine that powers your entire body. It pumps blood, delivers oxygen, and supplies essential nutrients to your organs and tissues. Maintaining cardiovascular health is key to preventing a variety of conditions, including hypertension, coronary artery disease, heart attacks, and strokes. Regular check-ups and early detection are essential for managing risks and maintaining a healthy heart.
Comprehensive Cardiovascular Services at Shalom Medical Clinic
At Shalom Medical Clinic, our Cardiovascular Clinic is equipped with state-of-the-art technology and staffed by experienced healthcare professionals. We offer the following services to help you stay on top of your heart health:
- 2D Echocardiogram (2D Echo)
- This non-invasive test uses ultrasound waves to create detailed images of your heart. It helps in assessing the heart’s structure, function, and detecting any abnormalities. A 2D Echo can diagnose conditions such as heart valve issues, congenital heart defects, and cardiomyopathy.
- 24-Hour Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring
- Blood pressure fluctuations throughout the day can provide crucial insights into your cardiovascular health. Our 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring allows us to track your blood pressure over an extended period, offering a comprehensive view that can help in diagnosing hypertension and other related conditions.
- 24-Hour Holter Monitoring
- For patients experiencing irregular heartbeats, palpitations, or unexplained fainting spells, the Holter monitor provides continuous ECG (electrocardiogram) recording over 24 hours. This test is vital for detecting arrhythmias and other heart rhythm disorders.
- Electrocardiogram (ECG)
- An ECG is a quick and simple test that measures the electrical activity of the heart. It is essential for diagnosing heart attacks, arrhythmias, and other heart conditions. The ECG is often the first step in evaluating heart health.
- Stress Test (Treadmill Stress Test)
- The stress test evaluates how your heart functions under physical exertion. By monitoring your heart rate, blood pressure, and ECG during exercise, we can identify issues like coronary artery disease and other heart-related problems that may not be apparent during rest.
When to Consider Cardiovascular Testing
Regular cardiovascular testing is recommended for individuals with risk factors such as a family history of heart disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, or a sedentary lifestyle. Additionally, if you experience symptoms like chest pain, shortness of breath, dizziness, or irregular heartbeats, it’s crucial to seek medical evaluation promptly.
