Cardiology consultation
A cardiologist is not just a medical specialty; he is a doctor responsible for the health of one of the most important organs of the human body – the heart. A cardiologist deals with diagnosing, treating, and preventing diseases of the cardiovascular system. A person's general well-being, performance, and even life expectancy depend on the condition of the heart.

When is it necessary to consult a cardiologist?
- Chest pain: It is especially important to pay attention to a sharp or pressing pain in the chest area, which can radiate to the left arm, neck, jaw, or back. This can be a sign of coronary heart disease.
- Heart palpitations or arrhythmias: An irregular heartbeat, a feeling of "irregularity" in the heart, or an excessively fast pulse can be signs of an arrhythmia.
- Changes in heart rhythm after eating: Some people may experience changes in heart rhythm after eating, which may also require a consultation with a cardiologist.
- Shortness of breath: Difficulty breathing or feeling short of breath, especially when exercising or lying down, may indicate heart failure or other heart conditions.
- Dizziness and fainting: Sudden dizziness or loss of consciousness may be due to insufficient blood supply to the brain due to heart problems.
- Fatigue and weakness: A general feeling of tiredness and weakness, especially when increased with normal daily activities, may indicate heart failure.
- Swelling: A noticeable increase in the volume of the legs, ankles, or abdomen associated with fluid retention can be a sign of heart failure.
- In the presence of risk factors: Regular check-ups with a cardiologist are recommended if you have one or more risk factors. Risk factors include diabetes mellitus, obesity and overweight, high cholesterol, hypertension, smoking, and chronic stress.
- After reaching age: Even if there are no symptoms, it is recommended that people over the age of 40 have regular check-ups.
- Family history: Regular preventive visits to a cardiologist are recommended if you have a family history of cardiovascular disease.
- For lifestyle changes: If you decide to make a lifestyle change, such as starting to exercise after a long period of inactivity, a consultation with a cardiologist may be beneficial.
What Diseases Does a Cardiologist Treat?
- Coronary artery disease (CHD): A condition caused by narrowing of the coronary arteries, resulting in a reduced blood supply to the heart muscle. This can lead to angina pectoris (chest pain) and myocardial infarction (heart attack).
- Hypertension (Hypertension): High blood pressure increases the risk of stroke, heart attack, heart failure, and other complications.
- Heart failure: A condition in which the heart cannot pump blood efficiently, leading to shortness of breath, fatigue, and swelling.
- Arrhythmias: Irregular heart rhythms such as atrial fibrillation, tachycardia, and bradycardia, which may require medication, pacemaker placement, or other procedures.
- Congenital heart defects: Defects of the heart structure present from birth that can range from mild to severe.
- Cardiomyopathies: A group of diseases that affect the heart muscle and can lead to heart failure, arrhythmias, and other serious complications.
- Pericarditis: Inflammation of the pericardium, the lining surrounding the heart, can lead to chest pain and other symptoms.
- Atherosclerosis: A disease in which cholesterol builds up in the walls of the arteries, which can lead to vasoconstriction and blockage.
- Thrombosis and embolism: The formation of blood clots in vessels that can block blood flow and cause heart attacks and strokes.
- Aortic aneurysm: A bulge in the wall of the aorta that can rupture and lead to life-threatening internal bleeding.
Importantly! Do not self-medicate. Seek qualified help from specialists!
Cardiologist's appointment – how it goes and how to prepare
- Taking a medical history: Your doctor will ask about your symptoms, family history, lifestyle, and medical history.
- Physical exam: The exam may include measuring blood pressure and pulse, listening to the heart and lungs, and checking for swelling in the legs.
- Electrocardiogram (ECG): The initial appointment often involves an ECG to assess the heart's electrical activity.
Preparation for an appointment with a cardiologist includes:
- List of symptoms and questions: Before your visit, it is important to prepare a list of symptoms, complaints, and questions that you want to discuss with your doctor.
- Medical history: Prepare information about your current and past illnesses and family illnesses related to cardiovascular problems.
- Medical record: If you have the results of previous medical examinations, cardiograms, or test results, bring them with you.
- List of medications you are taking: Include all medicines, vitamins, and supplements.
Importantly! EasyMed will also notify the patient of the necessary actions to prepare for the appointment.
