ECG (Electrocardiogram)
An ECG records the electrical activity of the heart over a period, helping detect arrhythmias, heart attacks, and other cardiac conditions. Electrodes placed on the skin measure electrical impulses, producing a graph that shows the heart's rhythm and electrical activity. It is a quick, non-invasive, and essential diagnostic tool in cardiology.
2D Echo & Doppler
A 2D Echo uses ultrasound waves to create a detailed image of the heart, assessing its structure and function. The Doppler component measures blood flow through the heart's chambers and valves, detecting abnormalities like valve disorders, congenital heart defects, and heart function issues. It's a non-invasive, comprehensive cardiac imaging technique.
Holter Monitoring
Holter monitoring involves wearing a portable device that continuously records the heart's electrical activity over 24-48 hours or longer. It captures irregular heartbeats, palpitations, and other cardiac events that might not appear during a standard ECG. This extended monitoring provides a more complete picture of heart health during daily activities.
Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring
Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring (ABPM) measures blood pressure at regular intervals over 24 hours while the patient goes about their normal activities. It provides a more accurate and comprehensive assessment of blood pressure fluctuations compared to single, in-office readings, helping diagnose hypertension and evaluate the effectiveness of treatment.
2D Echo & Doppler
Electronic Medical Records (EMRs) are digital versions of patients' paper charts. They provide real-time, secure access to patient data, including medical history, diagnoses, medications, treatment plans, immunization dates, and test results. EMRs enhance the efficiency and accuracy of healthcare delivery, improve patient outcomes, and facilitate coordination among healthcare providers.
Second Opinion
A second opinion involves consulting another healthcare provider to confirm a diagnosis or treatment plan. It offers patients additional perspectives, potentially revealing alternative diagnoses or treatments. Seeking a second opinion can provide reassurance, uncover new options, and ensure that the chosen medical approach is the most appropriate and effective.
