Test and Equipment

Tilt-Table Test (TTT) - this is a diagnostic procedure applied to assess the causes of syncope of unclear origin or episodes similar to fainting, in the presence of orthostatic intolerance. Orthostasis is a condition where, upon suddenly moving from a sitting or lying position to standing, due to the redistribution of blood mass, dizziness occurs.

The Holter monitor is a type of portable electrocardiogram (ECG). It records the electrical activity of the heart continuously over 24 hours or longer while you are away from the doctor’s office (a small device attached to the patient’s body records an electrocardiogram of the heart). A cardiologist doctor, seeing the recorded Holter data, can examine the patient’s heart activity and notice heart rhythm disorders or changes in activity.

Ultrasound also known as sonography, is a widely used medical imaging technique that utilizes high-frequency sound waves to produce real-time images of the internal structures of the body.

Veloergometry is a study of the patient's cardiovascular system during increased physical activity under conditions of activity. During the procedure, the patient's blood pressure is measured and cardiogram is being recorded.
