Cardiac Surgery and Consultation

To perform a preoperative cardiac risk assessment in patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery.

Some of the cardiac diagnostic tests that are performed to determine heart disease include:

• Cardiac angiography

• Echocardiography

• Stress testing

• Electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG)

Once the results are obtained, your cardiologist will design a plan for further evaluation or provide treatment. Your doctor may also suggest lifestyle modifications, such as losing weight, increase physical activities, avoid smoking and chronic alcoholism, and may also suggest cholesterol-reducing medications. If you are diagnosed with coronary artery disease during the scanning, then your cardiologist will suggest coronary revascularization through angioplasty, with or without stenting or coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG). These surgeries will lower the cardiac risk such as myocardial infarction or death.
