24 hour bloodpressure – measurement
In a longterm bloodpressure measurement the blood pressure is automatically measured over the course of 24 hours. By this means a blood pressure profile is generated, which gives you a more accurate picture than single measurements taken on several days.
ECG
the ECG is routinely conducted in a wide range of heart complaints or conditions. By measuring the electrical activity of the heart you get information about heartrhythm, heartperfusion, find out about the nature of irregular heartbeats or find hints for coronary heart disease among others.
exercise test ( cardiac stress test )
the exercise test means the patient is working out on an ergometer ( stationary exercise bicycle ) thereby stimulating the heart and elevating the heartbeat while an ECG ( see article above ) ist performed. The exercise test gives information about coronary heart disease, exercise induced cardiac dysrhythmia. Furthermore you gather information about bloodpressure pattern during exercise ( exercise induced hypertension ).
spirometry
This is a test of you lung volume and respiratoric flow. It is essential both if a lung condition is suspected and to monitor already known lung conditions e.g. asthma or COPD
ultrasound
Ultrasounds scans allows to image internal organs without exposing the patient to radiation.
We perform ultrasound examinations of the abdominal cavity ( e.g. images of the liver, gallbladder or kidneys ) and the thyroid gland. Normal only in the morning and with prior appointment. Please note ! : As we are mostly busy with the examination of our own patients, in most cases we can´t provide ultrasound scans for patients referred by other doctors.
