Early Detection, Identify The 6 Methods Of Examination Of Coronary Heart Disease

4. Multislice CT scan cardiac

This inspection is carried out mainly to detect the presence of CHD by viewing/photographing an overview of the coronary blood vessels and the condition is more detail on the structure of the heart that may not be apparent on examination of the other.

5. Cardiac catheterization (Coronary Angiography)

Cardiac catheterization is a minimally invasive using the X-Ray beam by inserting a catheter through the blood vessels of the edge (hand/thigh) until it reaches the coronary arteries, followed by administration of contrast agent to directly photographing coronary blood vessels.

“This examination can detect the presence of a narrowing or blockage in the heart blood vessels (coronary arteries) accurately, so that to this day still is an examination of the gold standard (gold standard) to assess the blockage in the blood vessels of the coronary (CHD),” jelasny dr. Didi Kurniadhi.

If necessary, then the action of the cardiac catheterization can be continued with ballooning or stenting/stent (PCI), to re-open the narrowed blood vessels/clogged.

6. Laboratory examination

Laboratory tests are generally associated with risk factors of CHD, and is usually used for risk stratification and initial probability of coronary heart disease in an individual.

If You or a family member has a complaint such as chest pain, shortness of breath, or other symptoms similar to the symptoms of coronary heart disease, do not ragy to immediately check the health of the body.
