Heart disease is the leading cause of death around the world. According to the American Heart Association, someone dies of a heart attack in every 39 seconds. Luckily, there are plenty of ways to diagnose and treat heart diseases with Felix Heart Center.
Angiography is a type of X-ray used to check blood vessels.This highlights your blood vessels, allowing your doctor to see any problem.The X-ray images created during angiography are called angiograms.
Why is it done?
Angiography is used to check the health of your blood vessels and how blood flows through them. Your doctor may recommend that you have a coronary angiogram if you have:
It can help to diagnose or investigate several problems affecting blood vessels, including:
Angiography may also be used to help org plan treatment for some of these conditions.
The test can take between 30 minutes and 2 hours. You’ll usually be able to go home a few hours afterwards.
Angioplasty
Coronary angioplasty, also called percutaneous coronary intervention, is a procedure used to open clogged heart arteries. Angioplasty uses a tiny balloon catheter that is inserted in a blocked blood vessel to help widen it and improve blood flow to your heart.
Angioplasty can improve symptoms of blocked arteries, such as chest pain and shortness of breath. Angioplasty is also often used during a heart attack to quickly open a blocked artery and reduce the amount of damage to your heart.
Why is it done?
Angioplasty is used to treat the buildup of fatty plaques in your heart’s blood vessels. This buildup is a type of heart disease known as atherosclerosis.
Angioplasty may be a treatment option for you, if:
Angioplasty isn’t for everyone. Depending on the extent of your heart disease and your overall health, your doctor may determine that coronary artery bypass surgery is a better option than angioplasty for you.
You may need coronary artery bypass surgery if:
A treadmill test (TMT) or cardiac stress test helps determine how far your heart can go before an abnormal rhythm or blood flow to the heart muscle drops. It is primarily used to help your doctor determine if your heart receives enough oxygen and proper blood flow when it needs it most, such as when you are exercising.
It is prescribed for people who have been experiencing chest pains or other symptoms of coronary heart disease (also called coronary artery disease).
An exercise stress test may also be used to help determine your level of health, especially if you are starting a new exercise program. This allows your doctor to learn what level of exercise you can safely handle.
An exercise stress test may also be used to help determine your level of health, especially if you are starting a new exercise program. This allows your doctor to learn what level of exercise you can safely handle.
If you are a smoker over 40 years old, or if you have other risk factors for heart disease, you should talk to your doctor to see if an exercise stress test is a good idea for you.
Why is it done?
This test takes about 25-30 minutes of which the exercise time is 7-12 minutes and needs a bit of preparation:
A TMT helps in:
Points to be kept in mind while going for TMT Test
Under this type of surgery, all the damaged parts of the joint are removed and replaced with artificial implants. They improve the mobility of the joints and provide significant relief in the pain. This type of surgery is generally conducted on people with acute arthritis or joint injury. Some common types of total joint replacement surgery include knee, shoulder and hip.
During a stress echocardiography, you’ll exercise on a treadmill or stationary bike while your doctor monitors your blood pressure and heart rhythm.
When your heart rate reaches peak levels, your doctor will take ultrasound images of your heart to determine whether your heart muscles are getting enough blood and oxygen while you exercise.
Your doctor may order a stress echocardiography test if you have chest pain that they think is due to coronary artery disease or a myocardial infarction, which is a heart attack. This test also determines how much exercise you can safely tolerate if you’re in cardiac rehabilitation.
The test can also tell your doctor how well treatments such as bypass grafting, angioplasty, and anti-anginal or antiarrhythmic medications are working.
The echocardiography stress test is very reliable. Your doctor will explain your test results to you. If the results are normal, your heart is working properly and your blood vessels are probably not blocked due to coronary artery disease.
Abnormal test results may mean that your heart isn’t pumping blood effectively because there’s a blockage in your blood vessels. Another reason could be that a heart attack damaged your heart.
Diagnosing coronary artery disease and assessing your risk for heart attacks early on can help prevent future complications. This test can also help determine if your current cardiac rehabilitation plan is working for you.
The symptoms of heart disease depend on the specific type a person has. Also, some heart conditions cause no symptoms at all.
That said, the following symptoms may indicate a heart problem:
Some signs and symptoms that could indicate heart attack include:
Heart attack can lead to cardiac arrest, which is when the heart stops and the body can no longer function. A person needs immediate medical attention if they have any symptoms of a heart attack.
Your doctor will perform a physical exam and ask about your personal and family medical history. The tests you’ll need to diagnose your heart disease depend on what condition your doctor thinks you might have. Besides blood tests and a chest X-ray, tests to diagnose heart disease can include:
