What heart tests do we perform?

In our clinic, we provide full heart diagnostics in one place, which guarantees comprehensive care and comfort for the patient.

Echocardiography, also known as echocardiography, is a safe and non-invasive ultrasound examination that allows you to assess the structure and function of the heart, valves and blood flow. It helps diagnose heart defects, coronary artery diseases and monitor cardiac treatment.

Electrocardiography (ECG) is a test that measures the electrical activity of the heart. It is used to detect arrhythmias, ischemia, heart block and other cardiac problems.

An ECG Holter is a round-the-clock monitoring of the heart’s function, which allows you to detect irregularities in the heart rhythm and assesses its activity during daily activities. This test is particularly useful in patients with suspected arrhythmias.

Holter RR monitors blood pressure around the clock, which allows you to assess pressure fluctuations and detect hypertension, which cannot be noticed during a single measurement in the office.

Doppler scans assess blood flow in arteries and veins, which helps diagnose vascular diseases such as stenosis, blood clots, and other pathological changes.

ABI barefoot is a test of the ankle-brachial index that allows you to assess the patency of the arteries of the lower limbs. It is performed especially in patients with suspected atherosclerosis.

Chest X-ray is a basic diagnostic test that allows you to assess the structure of the heart and lungs. In the context of cardiac health, it allows to detect heart enlargement, the presence of fluid in the pleural cavity or changes indicating heart failure, which is crucial for quick diagnosis and implementation of appropriate treatment.

Our experienced cardiologists offer a comprehensive consultation, during which the test results are discussed and further diagnostic or therapeutic path is determined.

Our experienced specialists offer detailed consultations, ensuring a thorough assessment of your health and joint planning of further treatment or diagnostics.

What is a cardiac echo?

echo serca warszawa cena kardiolog
A heart echo, also called echocardiography or cardiac ultrasound, is a non-invasive ultrasound examination that allows the structure and function of the heart to be assessed. Using ultrasounds, it allows for a detailed analysis of the heart, cavities, valves and blood flow in large blood vessels. Thanks to this test, the doctor can assess the condition of the circulatory system and identify possible abnormalities, such as congenital defects or cardiac arrhythmias.

What are the types of echocardiography?

The most common examination is in which the ultrasound probe is applied to the chest. Transthoracic echo is completely safe and painless, usually lasting 30 to 60 minutes.

In transesophageal heart echo, the transducer is inserted through the esophagus, allowing for more detailed images of the heart. This test requires special preparation – the patient must be on an empty stomach and present the results of an ECG and chest X-ray.

This is an advanced test that involves assessing the work of the heart during increased load. They are used especially to diagnose coronary artery disease and assess myocardial contractility.

Frequently Asked Questions

During a standard transthoracic echo, the patient lies on their left side and the doctor places an ultrasound transducer on the chest to obtain real-time images of the heart. The results of the test are communicated to the patient immediately after its completion. This test does not require any special preparation, although it is worth providing earlier results if the patient has had an echocardiogram in the past.

In our facility in Warsaw, we perform cardiac echocardiography using modern ultrasound equipment, ensuring the highest quality of images and diagnostic precision. The tests are performed by experienced specialists, including cardiologists who specialize in echocardiography and take care of the safety and comfort of each patient. We make sure that everyone receives the results and a consultation after the test, which allows them to better understand the health of the heart and take any further diagnostic steps.

Echocardiography does not require any special preparations, but in the case of transesophageal echo, the patient should be on an empty stomach and not consume alcohol for a day before the test. Before stress echocardiography, your doctor may recommend taking appropriate medication.

The price of an echocardiogram depends on the selected technique and the type of examination. Our facility offers various options tailored to the individual needs of the patient, and a detailed price list can be found on the website or obtained by contacting the reception. The exact price list can be found here.

What are the early signs of heart disease?

Early signs of heart disease can include shortness of breath, chest pain, chronic fatigue, as well as unusual symptoms such as nausea and back pain, which are more common in women. It is worth paying attention to any disturbing signals, especially if they appear during physical exertion or in stressful situations. Regular tests, such as a heart echo, can help detect cardiovascular problems early.

Does hypertension always mean a heart problem?

Hypertension does not always mean that there is a heart problem, but it is one of the main risk factors for cardiovascular disease. If left untreated, it can lead to damage to blood vessels and the heart, increasing the risk of heart attack, stroke and heart failure. Regular blood pressure monitoring and a heart examination, such as an echocardiography, is crucial for assessing the health of the heart.

What tests should I do regularly?

The basic tests that are worth performing regularly are ECG, blood tests (including cholesterol and sugar levels), blood pressure measurement and echocardiographic examination (echocardiography). Echocardiography allows you to assess the structure and function of the heart, helping to detect early lesions. It is a safe and non-invasive test that provides detailed information about the heart’s function.

Does smoking affect heart health?

Smoking cigarettes has a huge negative impact on heart health. Long-term smoking damages blood vessels, leading to atherosclerosis, which significantly increases the risk of heart attack and stroke. Even passive smokers are at increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Regular examinations, including echocardiography, can help monitor the condition of the heart in smokers.

Are the symptoms of heart disease different in men and women?

Yes, the symptoms of heart disease can differ between men and women. While men are more likely to experience typical chest pain, women may experience less obvious symptoms such as nausea, shortness of breath, back pain, or severe fatigue. Echocardiography is an excellent diagnostic tool that can help identify heart disease regardless of the patient’s gender.

How does lifestyle affect the heart?

Lifestyle plays a key role in maintaining a healthy heart. A healthy diet rich in vegetables, fruits, healthy fats and low in salt, regular physical activity, limiting alcohol consumption and avoiding excessive stress can significantly improve the condition of the heart. Regular examinations, such as echocardiography, allow for an assessment of the condition of the heart and early detection of possible problems.

Can I exercise if I have heart problems?

Exercise is good for your heart, but if you have heart problems, it’s important to consult your doctor to choose the right type of activity. A heart echo can help assess what forms of exercise are safe by analyzing the structure and function of the heart. Adequate physical activity supports heart function, improves circulation and reduces the risk of deterioration of health.

Does obesity increase the risk of heart disease?

Yes, being overweight and obese are significant risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Excessive body weight puts a strain on the heart, promotes hypertension, type 2 diabetes and elevated cholesterol levels. Regular examinations, including echocardiography, help monitor heart health and can support people struggling with obesity to assess the progress of treatment.

How does alcohol affect the heart?

Moderate consumption of alcohol, especially red wine, may have some benefits for heart health due to its antioxidant content. However, excessive drinking leads to high blood pressure, heart failure, and an increased risk of arrhythmias. Regular echocardiography can help monitor the effects of alcohol consumption on the condition of the heart and circulatory system.

Does stress have a big impact on heart health?

Stress, especially chronic stress, has a significant impact on heart health. It can cause an increase in blood pressure, increase heart rate and lead to habits that are unfavorable for the heart, such as smoking or excessive alcohol consumption. Regular echocardiographies and other tests can help assess how stress affects the functioning of the heart, allowing you to take appropriate preventive measures.
