E.C.G. - Electrocardiography
In cardiology, we diagnose, evaluate and treat cardiac problems of patients referred by a physician.
Several procedures are used to test our patients:
- We perform electrocardiograms (ECG) to do a basic diagnostic test at rest.
- We use stress electrocardiograms (treadmill) to help diagnose chest pain, to determine the severity of angina and to confirm a cardiac arrhythmia under stress.
- We provide 24-hour electrocardiogram (Holter) monitoring to get continuous ECG recording for a 24 hour period in order to diagnose cardiac arrhythmia or chest pain.
- We provide a cardiac pacemaker clinic to verify if pacemakers are functioning properly while still implanted.
- Continuous blood pressure recordings are taken at regular intervals during a 24 hour period. Nota: The patient must pay a $20 fee for this test.
- Loop monitoring is used to diagnose syncope and cardiac arrhythmia by taking continuous electrocardiogram recordings for a period of 15 days.
Our team also provides respiratory services to diagnose and prevent pulmonary conditions. A wide range of procedures is also available to patients who are referred by their physicians. Our cardiologist offers diagnostic and therapeutic consultations to patients with cardiac and/or pulmonary problems.
