Exercise ECG Monitoring

An exercise ECG, or exercise tolerance test (ETT), is a specialised procedure to monitor the heart’s behaviour under physical strain.

How is an exercise ECG done?

Using a treadmill to simulate stress, the test gradually increases the incline and speed in 3-minute segments. This progression goes from a simple walk to a potential light run at the culmination. The goal is to reach the maximum heart rate, standardised as 220 minus one’s age. Post-exercise, we continue monitoring until the heart rate normalises. 

Throughout the exercise ECG test, our advanced equipment tracks your blood pressure and ECG. This ensures a comprehensive cardiac exercise assessment and guarantees your safety during the process. Our consultant cardiologist will provide a detailed report post-test, highlighting any observed abnormalities during the stress ECG test. 

For an accurate cardiovascular exercise test, avoid alcohol, food, and smoking for four hours preceding the test. Wearing comfortable attire like gym gear, trainers, or loose-fitting clothing is advised.
