Cardiology

The heart can be thoroughly evaluated with a variety of tests. At Medical Centre, the choice of these tests is tailored to symptoms and risk factors, always with comfort and safety in mind. A consultation offers clarity when it is uncertain whether further examination is needed.

Anamnesis

During the medical history, the doctor asks specific questions about your symptoms, medical history, medication use and any disorders in your family. In this way, a complete picture of your health emerges, allowing follow-up examinations and treatments to be more targeted.

More info

Clinical research

The clinical examination is a physical examination in which the doctor uses standard medical techniques such as inspection, auscultation (listening), palpation (feeling) and percussion (tapping). This helps detect abnormalities and gives the doctor a good idea of your general health.

Electrocardiogram (ECG)

An ECG records the electrical activity of the heart. This simple and painless test allows detection of cardiac arrhythmias and conduction abnormalities. In addition, the ECG helps detect other heart problems, such as oxygen deprivation or scarring after a heart attack.

More info

Holter monitoring

During a Holter examination, you wear a small device that continuously records your heart rhythm for 24 to 48 hours. This can detect cardiac arrhythmias that may not be visible on a standard ECG. This method gives an accurate picture of heart activity during daily activities.

More info

Cycling test

The cycling test, also called exercise test, assesses how your heart functions during gradual physical exertion. This includes measuring heart rhythm, blood pressure and any symptoms such as chest pain or shortness of breath. In this way, oxygen deficiency and cardiac arrhythmias that occur during exercise can be detected.

Echocardiography

With echocardiography, we image the heart using sound waves. This allows accurate assessment of the heart muscle, valves and pumping function. This technique is essential for detecting structural heart problems and monitoring the effect of treatments.

More info

Blood pressure monitoring

With 24-hour blood pressure monitoring, you wear a wearable device that automatically records your blood pressure throughout the day and night. This provides an accurate picture of your blood pressure in everyday life, allowing better assessment of whether and what treatment is needed.
