Do you have any of these common cardiac conditions?

Cardiovascular problems are incredibly common. Indeed, cardiovascular disease is one of the leading causes of death and disability in the UK. Common cardiovascular conditions include:

• Angina and heart attacks
• Heart rhythm problems
• Valvular heart disease
• Heart failure
• High cholesterol
• High blood pressure (hypertension)
• Coronary artery disease
• Cardiomyopathy
• Atrial fibrillation (causes an irregular and unusually fast heartbeat) 

A healthy heart is absolutely crucial to your quality of life. Certain symptoms may indicate a potential problem within the cardiovascular system, including:

• Chest pain
• Breathlessness
• Palpitations
• Dizziness
• Collapsing
• Loss of consciousness

Many of these symptoms can have a number of causes. It is sensible to get medical assessment and advice for your peace of mind, and to ensure you receive any treatment needed at the earliest opportunity.

Other risk factors, such as high cholesterol and high blood pressure, will usually only be picked up during a test.

At The Harbour Hospital, our experienced cardiology team will thoroughly investigate your symptoms to determine the cause and then formulate the best treatment plan for you and your specific needs. Why not book your private Cardiology appointment at Harbour Hospital today?

What happens at a cardiology appointment at The Harbour Hospital?

Your initial appointment with a consultant cardiologist is designed to be thorough and focused on your unique health concerns. Your cardiologist will begin by discussing your symptoms, medical history, and any relevant family history. You may be asked about any chest discomfort or pain, shortness of breath, dizziness or fainting as well as exercise tolerance and lifestyle.

A physical examination is usually performed, including listening to your heart and lungs and checking your blood pressure. If needed, further investigations may be arranged on the same day or shortly afterwards to further investigate your heart problems. 

What tests might a cardiologist recommend at The Harbour Hospital? 

Depending on your symptoms, your cardiologist may recommend diagnostic tests to assess your heart function and identify underlying causes. 

Common tests include:
