We have all the necessary equipment to perform non-invasive procedures. Before any diagnosis, the specialist will meet with you to identify potential symptoms, including those you may not be aware of. The evaluation includes a medical history, a physical examination, and an electrocardiogram. Listening to patients and considering their needs is at the heart of our approach, which emphasizes lifestyle adaptation and the improvement of quality of life.

Ce test permet de détecter les éléments suivants:
- Signs of Cardiac Distress: Identification of signs that may indicate coronary artery disease.
- Heart Rate and Blood Pressure Adaptation: In cases of heart disease, heart rate tends to decrease, while elevated blood pressure may signal a tendency toward hypertension.
- Physical Fitness: Assessment of fitness level, a key factor in determining cardiovascular risk.
- Transthoracic Echocardiography: Allows visualization of the four heart valves, evaluates the function of different heart chambers, and measures the left ventricular ejection fraction, which is crucial for prognosis.
- Pacemaker and Defibrillator Monitoring and Programming: Ensures optimal follow-up of implanted cardiac devices.
- Cardiac MRI: Confirms or rules out suspected coronary artery disease and provides enhanced heart visualization when echocardiography is insufficient.
- CT Scan: Focused on coronary arteries, this test looks for potential narrowing.
- 24-Hour ECG Monitoring: Documents any trends toward arrhythmias.
- 24-Hour Blood Pressure Monitoring: Evaluates the presence of hypertension or the risk of over-treatment.
The treatment
One of the key elements of the evaluation is determining the potential usefulness of any medication. This is why our specialists first focus on and encourage lifestyle adaptations, which can help avoid medication. If medication is indicated, it should be prescribed with special attention and a rigorous approach.
