Heart Check Up Singapore
Heart disease is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. In Singapore, there were 24292 deaths in 2021 and 32% of it was caused by cardiovascular diseases. It's a serious condition that can affect anyone, regardless of age, gender, or ethnicity. That's why it's important to stay on top of your heart health and get regular check-ups.
What is a Heart Check-Up?
A heart check-up is a series of tests that evaluate the health of your heart. These tests are designed to identify any underlying conditions or risk factors that could lead to heart disease. The tests usually involve a combination of medical history assessment, physical examination, blood tests, and imaging tests such as electrocardiograms (ECG) and echocardiograms (ECHO). The doctor will use the results of these tests to determine your risk of developing heart disease and recommend any necessary treatments or lifestyle changes.
Why is a Heart Check-Up important?
Heart disease is a major health concern worldwide and is responsible for a significant number of deaths every year. The risk factors for heart disease include high blood pressure, high cholesterol levels, diabetes, obesity, smoking, and a family history of heart disease. A heart check-up, as part of regular health screening, is important as it helps identify any risk factors and underlying conditions that could lead to heart disease. Early detection and treatment can prevent or slow the progression of heart disease and reduce the risk of complications, such as heart attack and stroke.
