If you visit Zutshi Clinic, you can
get a stress test on the TMT (Treadmill Stress Test) to check how the heart
functions when you are physically active. TMT is used to diagnose coronary
artery disease, measure a person's exercise tolerance and observe heart
conditions in young people and adults. Exercise can show hidden issues with the
heart that would be hard to find during rest.
When should a TMT be advised?
● Check if your chest pain or difficulty breathing during exercise suggests heart problems.
● People with a family history of heart disease should be screened for the disease earlier.
● Follow-up Care for Heart Patients: This care monitors recovery and fitness after heart surgery or a heart attack.
● Fitness Assessment: To ensure that someone new to exercise workouts or athletes is healthy and can participate safely.
● Analysing Patients with Hypertension or Diabetes: To check for possible, unnoticed risks to the heart.
The Steps That Are Taken During the Test
The patient uses a treadmill during
the TMT, and their heart function, blood pressure and oxygen levels are
screened repeatedly through ECG leads. Physical stress is gradually added by
changing the speed and incline to see how your heart performs. Supervision by
qualified staff during the test guarantees that the results are safe and
correct.
