Cardiac Stress Testing

Cardiac Stress Testing

A stress test records the heart's rhythm, rate, and blood pressure while you walk on a treadmill, revealing changes that may not appear at rest.

When It Is Typically Used

• Chest Pain or Shortness of Breath — Symptoms that appear with activity are best evaluated during activity.
• Heart Disease Screening — Testing supports risk assessment in patients with several cardiac risk factors.
• Treatment Follow-Up — Repeat testing can show how well a treatment plan is working.

Working Alongside Other On-Site Services

Stress testing complements in-office EKGs and ambulatory blood pressure monitoring.

What to Expect

You are monitored throughout by clinical staff. Wear comfortable shoes and clothing you can walk in.
