Exercise ECG (ergometry)
Exercise ECG — assess your heart's tolerance under controlled conditions.
The exercise ECG (ergometry) tests how well your heart copes under load. During the examination the heart may beat up to three times per second and pump blood through the entire vascular system, which is about 100,000 kilometres long.
How is the examination carried out?
You ride on an ergometer (stationary bike). We raise the wattage every two minutes. Throughout the examination an ECG is recorded and blood pressure and oxygen saturation are monitored. The ECG is continuously supervised by a doctor via telemonitoring.
At the end of the examination you receive your personal findings report.
