Cardiac Screening

The key to preventing cardiovascular disease, also called coronary artery disease (CAD), is managing your risk factors, such as high blood pressure, high total cholesterol or high blood glucose. But how do you know which risk factors you have? The best way to find out is through screening tests during regular doctor visits.
Regular cardiovascular screening is important because it helps you detect risk factors in their earliest stages. You can treat the risk factor with lifestyle changes and pharmacotherapies, if appropriate, before it ultimately leads to the development of cardiovascular disease.

Key screening tests includes:

  • Blood Pressure
  • Cholesterol profilecirculation
  • Diabetes
  • Body weight
  • Smoking history
  • Family history

Investigative tests may include:

  • Blood tests
  • ECG
  • Echocardiogram
  • CT coronary Calcium score
