Questions about cardiology at Apollo Clinic
What does a cardiologist do?
A cardiologist diagnoses and treats conditions of the heart and blood vessels. Visits cover chest pain, palpitations, high blood pressure, cholesterol, heart failure, valve problems and heart-health screening, using tests such as ECG, echocardiography and stress testing.
When should I see a cardiologist?
See a cardiologist for chest pain or pressure, palpitations, unexplained shortness of breath or tiredness, dizziness or fainting, or if you have high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, obesity or a family history of heart disease.
What is an ECG and how long does it take?
An electrocardiogram (ECG) records the heart’s electrical activity to check rhythm and look for signs of strain or damage. It is painless and takes only a few minutes.
What is an echocardiogram?
An echocardiogram (echo) is an ultrasound scan of the heart. It shows the size of the heart chambers, how well the heart pumps and how the valves work. It uses sound waves, not radiation.
What is a cardiac stress test?
A cardiac stress test records the ECG while you exercise, usually by walking on a treadmill, to show how your heart responds to effort. It helps evaluate chest pain, breathlessness and the risk of coronary artery disease.
Can you help with high blood pressure and cholesterol?
Yes. We evaluate and manage hypertension and lipid disorders, assess cardiac risk in people with diabetes, obesity or a family history of heart disease, and give lifestyle guidance for long-term heart health.
Do you do cardiac checks before surgery?
Yes. We offer preoperative cardiac evaluation and follow-up care after cardiac procedures.
