Cardiac Testing - Windward Heart Center

Here at Windward Heart Center we specialize in comprehensive heart care. At our office located in Kailua, we not only see patients for consultation and follow-up appointments,
but we also carry out a number of heart-focused testing procedures.

These procedures include:

Lipid profile check
A lipid profile check is a simple blood test to check your cholesterol and triglyceride levels.

EKG Monitor
An EKG monitors the electrical activity of your heartbeat.

Echocardiogram
An Echocardiogram is an ultrasound test for the heart that uses sound waves to show its shape, texture, and movement of the heart valves, the size of your heart chambers and how well they work.

Treadmill Stress Testing
Treadmill Stress Tests (TST) show the strength of your heart and whether there is a lack of blood supply. Results of your TST will indicate what types of exercise and activity levels are right for you and if further heart testing is needed.

Holter and Event Monitors
Holter and Event Monitors record your heartbeat while you carry out your every day routine. They are worn for 24 hours and 30 days or more, respectively, and are used to evaluate abnormal heart rate, chest pain, dizziness, fainting, and how certain medications affect heart rhythm.
