Understanding Stress Echo


What is Stress Echo?

Stress Echo is used to check how well your heart and blood vessels are working under stress. In this, your heart may be put under stress with medicine or exercise. The images from the ultrasound shows your heart structure and how well your heart muscles are pumping blood.

This test is done to assess the blood flow pattern to the heart muscles during exercise. It also helps diagnose the cause of chest pain. It may also be advised as a follow up treatment after bypass surgery and angioplasty.

The abnormal test results mean that the heart isn’t pumping blood effectively, this could be due to any blockage in your blood vessels. Other reasons may include a previous heart attack, causing damage to the heart muscles. Diagnosing heart disease and assessing your risk for heart attacks early can help prevent future complications.
