Cardiology Consultation

The speciality of Cardiology focuses on the diagnosis, study, prevention and treatment of heart and vascular diseases (heart, arteries and veins). A Cardiology specialist can treat a wide range of cardiovascular conditions, including arrhythmias, coronary artery disease, heart failure and high blood pressure, among others.

A cardiology consultation aims to identify symptoms in a patient, assess their risk factors, and prescribe medication and diagnostic tests for the subsequent treatment of the condition detected.

There are various reasons why someone may need to see a cardiologist. The first is for preventive purposes, even if the patient is not experiencing any significant symptoms or any symptoms at all:

• The patient has a family history of heart disease, heart attacks or sudden cardiac death.
• The patient has risk factors such as diabetes, high cholesterol, hypertension, morbid obesity or smoking, which can lead to serious heart conditions.
• Patients who regularly engage in intense physical activity, such as elite athletes or individuals who take part in competitive sports.

Another important reason to request an appointment with a Cardiology specialist is the presence of symptoms, meaning people who are experiencing any of the following:

• Chest pain or pressure, which may radiate to the arm, neck or back.
• Shortness of breath even with mild physical effort.
• Dizziness or fainting spells.
• Strong palpitations.
• Frequent spikes in blood pressure.
• Swelling in parts of the body such as the legs, abdomen or ankles due to fluid retention.
• Symptoms linked to an already diagnosed heart condition.

Both the treatment prescribed by the specialist and the request for additional tests depend solely on the professional judgement of the Cardiology specialist who carries out your consultation.

As mentioned earlier, the treatment recommended by the doctor may vary. They may prescribe medication, request diagnostic tests, or even suggest changes to your diet or lifestyle if these could be contributing to your health problem and improving them may help your condition. In some cases, surgical treatment may also be required.

If the specialist advises you to undergo a diagnostic test such as an echocardiogram or an electrocardiogram, at Operarme our Patient Service team is available to help you arrange your test at the hospital at preferential rates.
