ECG
Quick and painless
Records your heart's electrical activity to pick up irregular rhythms and other heart conditions.
Heart tests, in one clinic
Most of the tests your heart needs can happen here, with results reviewed by Dr. Bonakdar.
Holter monitor
Worn for 24 or 48 hours
A small recorder tracks your heart through your normal day and catches extra or irregular beats, like PVCs, that a short ECG can miss.
Stress test
Your heart under effort
Shows how your heart copes with exertion and helps find blockages, reduced blood flow or abnormal responses.
Echo (POCUS)
Live ultrasound images
Shows your heart moving in real time, so we can check the valves, chambers and blood flow.
24-hour blood pressure
Worn at home ($50)
A cuff takes readings through a full day and night, for a truer picture than a single reading in the office.
See what a heart rhythm problem looks like
Electrophysiology is the part of cardiology that looks after the heart's electrical rhythm. Choose a rhythm to see how it differs from normal.
Normal rhythm
60 to 100 beats a minute at rest
Steady and evenly spaced. Each beat starts at the SA node and follows the same path through the heart.
Simplified drawings for general information. Only a recording of your own heart can show your rhythm.
