At Dr. Prabhat Memorial Hiramati Hospital, the Treadmill Test (TMT) is a crucial diagnostic tool used to evaluate cardiac function and assess how well the heart performs under physical stress. This test helps in diagnosing various heart conditions and determining the appropriate treatment plans for patients.
The TMT involves walking on a treadmill while being monitored with an electrocardiogram (ECG). The treadmill’s speed and incline are gradually increased to induce physical exertion. Throughout the test, your heart’s response to increased activity levels is closely observed, including changes in heart rate, blood pressure, and ECG readings. This helps in assessing the heart’s performance and detecting any irregularities that may indicate cardiovascular issues.
The primary purpose of the TMT is to diagnose coronary artery disease (CAD), evaluate the heart’s response to exercise, and determine the functional capacity of the heart. It is particularly useful for identifying conditions like angina or determining the severity of existing heart diseases. The test can also be used to guide decisions on further diagnostic procedures or treatments.
