NON-INVASIVE CARDIAC TESTS
Dr. Pradeep Kumar offers a range of non-invasive cardiac tests designed to evaluate heart function, detect abnormalities early, and guide treatment — all without the need for surgery or invasive procedures. These tests help diagnose conditions like coronary artery disease, arrhythmias, valve disorders, and blood pressure irregularities, allowing for timely and effective intervention while keeping patient comfort a priority.
ECG (Electrocardiogram)
An ECG is a simple, painless test that records the electrical activity of your heart. Dr. Pradeep uses this test to detect irregular heart rhythms, conduction abnormalities, previous heart attacks, and other cardiac issues, providing essential information for diagnosis and treatment planning.
Echocardiography (2D, 3D & Doppler)
Echocardiography uses ultrasound to create detailed images of the heart’s structure and function. Dr. Pradeep employs 2D, 3D, and Doppler echocardiography to assess heart chambers, valves, blood flow, and overall cardiac performance, helping to detect conditions like valve disease, heart failure, and congenital defects.
Treadmill Test (TMT) / Stress Test
The Treadmill Test evaluates how your heart responds to physical exertion. By monitoring your heart’s electrical activity, blood pressure, and overall performance during controlled exercise, Dr. Pradeep can identify exercise-induced arrhythmias, coronary artery disease, and other heart conditions that may not appear at rest.
Holter Monitoring (24-Hour ECG)
Holter monitoring is a continuous 24-hour recording of your heart’s electrical activity. This test helps Dr. Pradeep detect intermittent arrhythmias, palpitations, or silent episodes of ischemia that may be missed during a standard ECG, providing a more comprehensive understanding of your heart rhythm.
Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring (ABPM)
ABPM tracks your blood pressure at regular intervals over 24 hours, including during sleep and daily activities. This allows Dr. Pradeep to accurately assess hypertension patterns, identify white-coat hypertension, and customize treatment plans to control blood pressure effectively and reduce cardiovascular risk.
Cardiac Risk Assessment
Dr. Pradeep performs a thorough cardiac risk assessment by evaluating factors like age, family history, blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes, lifestyle habits, and existing heart conditions. This assessment helps predict your risk of heart disease and guides personalized preventive strategies to maintain a healthy heart.
