About This Presentation

Description : Cardiac care focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, and management of heart-related conditions to ensure optimal cardiovascular health. Accurate diagnosis is the foundation of effective treatment, relying on advanced cardiac diagnostic techniques. These methods range from non-invasive procedures, such as electrocardiography (ECG), echocardiography, and exercise tolerance testing, to invasive techniques like coronary angiography and electrophysiologic studies. By utilizing these diagnostic approaches, medical professionals can assess heart function, detect abnormalities, and develop personalized treatment strategies, leading to improved patient outcomes and enhanced cardiovascular care.

Diagnostic Tests Overview Key Non-Invasive & Invasive Tests Each method provides specific insights, helping clinicians tailor treatment approaches for optimal patient outcomes.
Slide 5-

Electrocardiography (ECG) is the primary tool for assessing heart rhythm and electrical activity. Types of ECG Resting ECG: Measures electrical signals at rest to detect arrhythmias and ischemic changes. Stress ECG: Evaluates heart function during physical exertion (exercise ECG). 24-hour ECG (Holter Monitoring): Continuous monitoring to assess intermittent arrhythmias. Electrocardiography (ECG) Analyzing Heart Electrical Activity ECG is fundamental in diagnosing cardiac conditions such as atrial fibrillation, myocardial infarction, and conduction disorders.
Slide 6-

Exercise tolerance testing (ETT) helps assess the functional capacity of the heart. Procedure Patient undergoes a controlled exercise protocol, usually on a treadmill or stationary bike. ECG and blood pressure are monitored to detect ischemic changes or arrhythmias. Symptoms such as chest pain or shortness of breath are evaluated. Exercise Tolerance Testing (ETT) Evaluating Cardiac Response to Physical Stress ETT is essential for diagnosing coronary artery disease, assessing treatment effectiveness, and guiding rehabilitation programs.
Slide 7-

Holter monitoring captures continuous ECG recordings over 24–48 hours. Clinical Applications Detects intermittent arrhythmias not captured in a standard ECG. Evaluates syncope, palpitations, and silent ischemia. Helps assess treatment response to anti-arrhythmic medications. Continuous Ambulatory Electrocardiography (Holter Monitoring) Long-Term Heart Rhythm Monitoring Holter monitoring improves diagnostic accuracy in patients with suspected cardiac rhythm disorders.
Slide 8-

Electrophysiologic testing (EP study) is an invasive procedure used to examine the heart's electrical conduction system. Procedure Specialized catheters record electrical signals directly from the heart chambers. Helps pinpoint the origin of arrhythmias and assess conduction pathways. Radiofrequency ablation may be used to correct abnormal rhythms. Electrophysiologic Testing (EP Study) Assessing Cardiac Conduction & Arrhythmias EP studies are critical in managing complex arrhythmias, including ventricular tachycardia and atrial fibrillation.
Slide 9-

Cardiac imaging provides detailed structural and functional analysis of the heart and vascular system. Common Imaging Modalities Echocardiography: Uses ultrasound to evaluate heart chambers, valves, and function. MRI & CT: High-resolution imaging for congenital defects, ischemic changes, and structural abnormalities. Nuclear Imaging: Assesses myocardial perfusion and metabolic activity in cardiac tissues. Imaging Techniques Advanced Visualization for Cardiac Diagnostics Imaging plays a crucial role in non-invasive diagnosis and treatment planning.
