To detect any underlying cardiac condition in 14-35yr olds, Cardiologist expertise is essential to reduce incidence and to differentiate between pathological and physiological cardiac changes – particularly in athletes.
Our team of cardiac physiologists, nurses and cardiologists provide an on-site screening service which includes a questionnaire, BP check and resting 12 lead ECG. These results are immediately reviewed by the cardiologists who may wish to discuss the results with the individual.
In around 10% of cases the cardiologist will suggest an echocardiogram and this will be done on-site on the same day as the screening. In a small number of cases, following the echocardiogram, the cardiologist might suggest further investigations. These can either be arranged through ourselves or with a structured referral to
the GP.
Screening targets 14-35yr olds.
