Exercise treadmill test
An exercise treadmill test is a diagnostic procedure used to assess your heart’s function during physical activity. You walk or jog on a treadmill while connected to monitors that track your heart rate, rhythm, blood pressure, and how well your heart responds to exertion. The test helps identify issues such as reduced blood flow to the heart, irregular heartbeats, or other cardiac problems that might not be apparent when at rest. It’s commonly used to evaluate chest pain, assess your fitness level, or determine the effectiveness of treatments. The test is safe and supervised by medical professionals.
