At Pulse Cardiac Care, we believe that understanding your heart is the first step toward a healthier life. That’s why we offer a comprehensive range of non-invasive, onsite diagnostic tests right here in our office.
These specialised investigations help us get a complete and accurate picture of your heart’s health so we can create a personalised and effective care plan for you.
Electrocardiogram (ECG): This is a quick and painless test that measures the electrical signals of your heart.
Small sticky pads are placed on your chest, arms, and legs to check your heart’s rhythm and rate, helping to detect any signs of stress or damage.
Advanced 2D Echocardiography: An echocardiogram, or “echo,” is a sophisticated ultrasound of the heart.
Using safe sound waves, our sonographers create a detailed, moving image of your heart’s structure, blood vessels, and pumping chambers. This allows us to analyse how blood flows through your heart with exceptional clarity.
We also offer more advanced forms of this test, including Strain Rate Analysis and Stress ECHO.
Exercise Stress Test: This test shows how your heart works during physical activity.
While you walk on a treadmill, our Cardiac Technician monitors your heart’s rhythm, blood pressure, and breathing. The results help us identify potential issues with blood flow that may not be apparent at rest.
Exercise Stress Echocardiography: This test combines a standard stress test with a heart ultrasound.
We take images of your heart before and immediately after exercise to show us exactly how well your heart muscle is pumping under stress. This provides a highly detailed assessment of your heart’s function.
24-Hour Holter Monitoring: A Holter monitor is a small, portable ECG device that continuously records your heart’s electrical activity over a 24-hour period.
Our advanced, cable-free patch recorder allows you to go about your normal daily activities in comfort, giving us a comprehensive look at your heart’s rhythm and rate.
While an angiogram is not performed in our clinic, we work closely with the Mater Hospital for this diagnostic test when needed.
An angiogram is an X-ray test that helps us check the health of your blood vessels and can guide further interventions.
For any additional tests, we collaborate with trusted partners like Sullivan and Nicolaides and Queensland Xray to ensure your care is seamless and fully coordinated.
