Cardiovascular diseases are, nowadays, one of the main health problems in developed countries. Ischemic heart disease, and especially myocardial infarction, is the most feared heart disease, but there are also many others whose prevalence is increasing, such as heart failure and arrhythmias.
The cardiology service at the Magnasalud Clinic is characterized by carrying out a complete and detailed study of patients to determine the risk of suffering from heart disease and, if they already suffer from it, to do everything possible to avoid a new cardiac episode and the disease from progressing.
In addition to a detailed clinical history, every new patient undergoes a physical examination, an electrocardiogram and an echocardiogram. Subsequently, it will be assessed whether any other special cardiological test is necessary in order to complete a diagnosis or to adjust the necessary cardiological treatment.
