Cardiac stress test at MY CLINIC

A cardiac stress test is a non-invasive physical examination to monitor the work of the heart under stress. During this stress test, the patient rides a cycle ergometer (exercise bike), gradually increasing the load after two minutes. During the examination, the doctor observes the patient’s ECG curve, which shows changes related to, for example, blood flow to the heart muscle or various possible arrhythmias. The heart rate and blood pressure are also monitored to see if they correspond to the stress.

The examination usually takes 20-30 minutes.

A cardiac stress test is usually carried out when heart disease is suspected. The doctor can also examine patients who have a history of heart disease using a cardiac stress test. They can then assess whether current therapy is suitable, including the effectiveness of the medication used. The examination is also useful for athletes, especially elite athletes, to determine the ideal training load.
