Frequently Asked Questions
Is a stress test painful or risky?
Exercise stress tests are generally well-tolerated. Patients walk on a treadmill while heart activity is monitored. For those who cannot exercise adequately, pharmacological stress testing achieves the same diagnostic goals without physical exertion.
What symptoms should prompt a cardiology referral?
Chest pain or pressure, palpitations, unexplained shortness of breath, dizziness, fainting, and swelling in the legs are all symptoms that warrant evaluation by a cardiologist. A primary care provider can help determine whether a referral is appropriate.
What is an echocardiogram and do I need one?
An echocardiogram uses ultrasound to create images of the heart's structure and function. It is ordered when a cardiologist needs to assess valve function, heart muscle performance, or structural abnormalities that cannot be fully evaluated by ECG alone.
