What does a cardiologist do and when should you see one
A cardiologist specializes in studying diseases of the cardiovascular system, including conditions affecting the heart, arteries, and veins. You should see a cardiologist if you experience the following symptoms:
- Chest pain or discomfort
- Dizziness, weakness, or episodes of fainting
- Rapid heartbeat or changes in rhythm (arrhythmias)
- Fatigue and malaise without known causes
- High blood pressure or previously diagnosed heart conditions
- Circulation problems in the limbs (swelling, numbness)
Visiting a cardiologist is important for prolonged or serious symptoms that may indicate heart problems.
What diseases does a cardiologist treat
A cardiologist treats various conditions, such as:
- Hypertensive disease (high blood pressure)
- Coronary artery disease and its complications (heart attack)
- Heart failure
- Arrhythmias (disruptions in heart rhythm)
- Cardiomyopathies (diseases of the heart muscle related to its weakness)
- Atherosclerosis (narrowing of arteries due to plaque buildup on vessel walls)
The cardiologist helps patients understand how these conditions can affect their health and which therapeutic and preventive measures should be taken.
What diagnostic methods does a cardiologist use
Cardiologists utilize several diagnostic methods to assess the state of the cardiovascular system in patients. The main diagnostic methods include:
- Medical history and physical examination
- Electrocardiography (ECG) to evaluate the electrical activity of the heart
- Echocardiography (ultrasound of the heart)
- Blood pressure monitoring
- Stress testing (exercise test)
- Biochemical blood tests (to measure cholesterol and other lipids, troponin, and other markers)
These methods allow the cardiologist to formulate an accurate diagnosis and determine a strategy to improve the patient's health status.
