We provide a complete non-invasive cardiological evaluation with ensuring invasive treatment in agreed renowned medical centres, including cardiovascular surgery. We ensure out-patient care, including therapy for our dispensed patients. We have available the state-of-the art technical equipment and the widest Holter monitoring network in the out-patient practice.

Ergometre

Stress EKG testing (treadmill, stationary bicycle). During a stress test the patient´ s heart activity is closely monitored and the data are collected and subsequently assessed.
bicycle: Kettler Ergometer FX1
treadmill: GE Series 2000 Treadmill

Echocardiography

Complete ultrasound heart examination, 1 and 2-dimensional echocardiography with pulse and continual Doppler and coloured mapping.
Apparatus: Vivid 3 (manufactured by GE Medical Systems)

Holter EKG and TK monitoring

Out-patient 24-hours monitoring of EKG and blood pressure using a special device which the patient takes home to use in his/her natural environment and which serves for the assessment of the heart beat, heart beat timing disorder and blood pressure during a 24-hours period.

Stimulation control: Programmer – Vitatron, Biotronik EPR 1000 EKG - Apparatus: Daedalus Cardiette, Hellige Kardiosmart, BTL 08, MAC12ST (GEMS),SEIVA EKG Praktik (digital recording)

Heart diseases and especially the ischemic heart disease represent the main cause of death in the Czech Republic. Approximately 30,000 people die annually of the ischemic heart disease, of which more than 20 % are under 65 years. The ischemic heart disease is caused by the process of depositing cholesterol, calcium and other substances on the inner side of hear coronary arteries. An artery narrowed in this way restricts the normal blood flow and less blood and oxygen reaches the heart muscle. This state is sometimes accompanied by so called angina pain – stenocardy – pain under sternum. Complete blockage of the coronary artery leads to acute myocardial infarction and unless a timely treatment is initiated, the heart muscle stops working.
Department of Cardiology includes centres focused on heart arrhythmia, ischemic heart disease, heart defects and pacemaker controls.
