Department of Cardiology at Vera Branch

Cardiologist, Cardio-Echoscopist - Tamar Tchikhoria

 

The Department of Cardiology conducts all the necessary studies for the diagnostics of cardiac diseases.

 

 

Out-patient service:

 

Consultation of a cardiologist

 

12-lead electrocardiography

 

Transthoracic echocardiography

 

24-hour Holter ECG monitoring

 

Stress Test (Treadmill)

 

Laboratory tests

 

24-hour ECG monitoring (using the Holter method) is a method of examination that involves continuous recording of an electrocardiogram for 24-48 hours, special importance is given to the detection by this study of heart rhythm disorders, as well as life-threatening arrhythmias, blockades, ischemic heart diseases.

 

Electrocardiography (with 12 standard leads) - electrocardiography allows to quickly carry out a reliable differentiation of symptoms characteristic of diseases of the cardiovascular system, to accurately determine not only the general pathology, but also its specific type.

 

Stress test for load (Treadmill) - a treadmill moving at a certain speed, the activity on which leads to a gradual strengthening of the heart. An electrocardiogram (ECG) monitors the heart's electrical rhythm and electrocardiographic changes, as well as whether there are symptoms such as chest discomfort or fatigue, which gives us the opportunity to determine the presence of ischemic changes and rhythm disturbances.

 

The cardiology department is equipped with CANON APLIO I 700 ultra-modern echocardiography. Echocardiography is an ultrasound examination of a heart, which examines the cavities of the heart, valves and other structures, assessing the contraction and functional indicators of the heart muscle.
