Microbubbles are used to diagnose very specific anomalies during a cardiac ultrasound (such as a communication between the two atria or between the arteries and veins in the lungs). Since these microbubbles are visible on ultrasound, it becomes possible to follow their trajectory.
Preparation:<\/strong>
The ultrasound with microbubble injection is performed intravenously. The patient lies down on a bed.
Injection:<\/strong>
A small amount of microbubbles is injected into the patient’s bloodstream. They are then carried by the blood flow to the heart, allowing it to be visualized.
Imaging:<\/strong>
The ultrasound is performed as usual. Thanks to their ability to reflect ultrasound waves, the microbubbles enhance the clarity of the images, especially those of the blood vessels.
Interpretation:<\/strong>
The images obtained during the ultrasound are then analyzed by a cardiologist to diagnose or monitor certain conditions.<\/p>\n

Resting ECG (Resting Electrocardiogram)<\/h5>\n

Recording of the electrical activity of the heart over a short period. The exam lasts a maximum of 5 minutes.<\/p>\n

The examination takes place ideally lying on your back and 10 electrodes are applied to the body, 4 at the level of the limbs and 6 at the level of the thorax. Wires are attached to it and then the recording begins.<\/p>\n

Cardiac ultrasound<\/span><\/h5>\n

Record still and moving images of the heart using a gel-coated probe on the thorax. The examination lasts 20 to 30 minutes and is performed lying on the left side and on the back. Measurements are taken and analyzed by a technologist, and a cardiologist then interprets the results.<\/span><\/p>\n

Holter (continuous recording of electrical activity of the heart)<\/h5>\n

For a period of 24h, 48h, 72h, up to two weeks: 5 electrodes are applied to the level of the thorax and connected to a small recording box by wires.<\/p>\n

The box is fixed at the level of the belt with a clip or is worn over the shoulder with the help of a strap. A preparation of the skin is necessary for the realization of this examination. A shave is necessary when there is hair on the chest. The skin will be cleansed with alcohol to remove all traces of sebum then a slight abrasion of the skin will be carried out using sandpaper for medical use, thus allowing a good capture of the electrical activity of the heart. .<\/p>\n

For a holter of less than a week, showering, bathing or swimming are prohibited because the device must not be in contact with water. At the end of the recording, we go to your home to remove the device. We then analyze the data and then a cardiologist interprets the results.<\/p>\n

Mapa (ambulatory blood pressure monitoring)<\/h5>\n

For a 24h or 48h period: a cuff is fitted to the arm and connected to a small recording box by a cable. The box is fixed at the level of the belt with a clip or is worn over the shoulder with the help of a strap. Wearing a short-sleeved shirt is preferable. Blood pressure will be measured every 15 minutes during the day and every hour at night. Settings can be adjusted by us as needed. Showering, bathing or swimming are prohibited because the device must not come into contact with water. At the end of the recording, we go to your home to remove the device. We then analyze the data and then a cardiologist interprets the results.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text module_class=”w_text” _builder_version=”4.14.8″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”||||||||” text_text_color=”#4a5560″ text_line_height=”24px” link_font=”Arial||||||||” link_text_color=”#aaaaaa” link_font_size=”16px” header_3_font=”|600|||||||” header_3_text_align=”left” header_3_text_color=”#4a5560″ header_3_font_size=”32px” header_3_line_height=”38px” custom_padding=”||||false|false” custom_padding_tablet=”30px||||false|false” custom_padding_phone=”30px||||false|false” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|tablet” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]Request an appointment<\/a>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text disabled_on=”on|on|on” module_class=”p_font” _builder_version=”4.14.8″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Arial||||||||” text_text_color=”#4a5560″ text_font_size=”16px” text_line_height=”1.9em” header_3_text_color=”#4b555f” header_3_font_size=”32px” header_3_line_height=”38px” header_5_font=”|700|||||||” header_5_text_color=”#303030″ header_5_font_size=”24px” header_5_line_height=”32px” custom_padding=”30px||||false|false” disabled=”on” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n
