Cardiology
The heart serves as the engine of the human body and is essential for survival. Cardiology focuses on preventing, diagnosing and treating diseases of the heart and circulatory system, with a strong emphasis on prevention. Recognising the early signs of cardiovascular disease and effectively addressing them is crucial to avoiding health complications and preserving quality of life. Cardiac screening is, therefore, a cornerstone of healthy ageing.
At Brixsana, preventive care is a top priority. Utilising advanced diagnostic techniques and innovative monitoring methods, our specialists perform comprehensive cardiological check-ups and, when necessary, develop tailored treatment plans to meet individual patient needs.
Medical history and cardiological examination
Electrocardiogram and stress test on the cycle ergometer
Review of blood test results, focusing on lipid levels
24-hour long-term ECG using the traditional Holter system (including a review of the findings)
RootiRx system: continuous ECG monitoring for up to 7 days with a review of the findings
Cardiological examinations play a vital role in the early detection and prevention of cardiovascular diseases. These evaluations are particularly recommended for men over the age of 40 and women over 50, especially when risk factors such as diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, smoking, obesity, chronic stress or a family history of heart disease are present.
Brixsana’s cardiology department offers advanced heart monitoring options for patients with existing cardiovascular conditions, including the traditional Holter system and the state-of-the-art RootiRx monitoring system, which provides continuous observation for up to seven days. These systems also deliver detailed information on nocturnal breathing irregularities, blood pressure fluctuations and autonomic nervous system performance. This comprehensive approach integrates all critical information, offering a more thorough understanding of the patient’s health.
If you have prior examinations or medical reports from another facility, please bring them to your appointment at Brixana.
