Cardiac Screening

Cardiac screening refers to a series of tests and evaluations aimed at assessing heart health and identifying potential cardiovascular issues early. This can include physical exams, blood tests, electrocardiograms (ECGs), and imaging tests like echocardiograms. The goal is to detect risk factors for heart disease, such as high blood pressure, cholesterol levels, or heart rhythm irregularities, allowing for timely intervention and lifestyle changes. Cardiac screening is important for individuals with a family history of heart disease, existing health conditions, or those experiencing symptoms like chest pain or shortness of breath.
