What is a Stress Test?

A stress test is a standard screening aimed at evaluating your overall cardiac health. As well as diagnosing severe arterial blockages, stress tests will create a baseline of cardiac function. Stress checks will track the heart rate using an electrocardiogram (EKG) unit. Most patients will not require stress tests on a regular basis. However, those who have had previously had a cardiac event such as a heart attack or blood clot may wish to undergo regular monitoring using an EKG stress test as a measure of their cardiac activity. Stress tests should not be painful. However, you will be required to have small electrodes attached to your body.

What habits or conditions can increase my risk of heart problems?

There are a number of things that can contribute to negative cardiovascular function. Reducing your alcohol intake and quitting smoking are two things you can do that will have an almost immediate positive affect on your heart health. You should also work with your doctor to address other chronic health problems such as hypertension, high cholesterol, and diabetes, as all of these can be major contributing factors to cardiac conditions. If you have been diagnosed with more than one of these conditions, it can exponentially increase your risk for developing a heart condition. Excess body fat, eating an unbalanced diet that is high in certain types of fats, and excessive stress can also contribute to your cardiac disease risk.
