Clinical Cardiologist with more than 11 years of experience as a Specialist in Interventional Cardiology, Dr. Vázquez diagnoses and provides treatments that help prevent or counteract diseases of the entire cardiovascular system.
A stress test shows how the heart works during physical activity. Exercise makes the heart pump harder and faster.
A stress test can show problems with blood flow within the heart. It usually involves walking on a treadmill or riding a stationary bike.
Types of Cardiac Stress Tests
- Electrocardiogram (ECG/EKG)
- Echocardiogram
- Nuclear Medicine
Peripheral Vascular Intervention are a type of cardiology treatment that use a flexible, hollow tube (catheter) to access blood vessels outside the heart. These techniques can be used as such:
- To open blocked blood vessels
- Remove blood clots
- Lower high blood pressure
Since PVI procedures are catheter-based and minimally invasive, patients who receive treatment often experience faster recovery times and fewer risks.
The main goals are to control the symptoms and halt the progression of the disease to lower the risk for heart attack, stroke, and other complications.
