Hemodynamic Evaluation of Complex Congenital Heart Diseases

Congenital Heart Diseases Treatment in Yeshwanthpur

Hemodynamic evaluation of complex congenital heart diseases is a crucial diagnostic procedure that involves assessing blood circulation and the performance of your heart. The evaluation, often known as a hemodynamic tilt test or technetium hemodynamic test, employs nuclear imaging techniques to provide detailed insights into your cardiovascular health. This test is recommended if you've experienced symptoms like fainting (syncope) to help your healthcare provider identify the underlying cause of such episodes. To prepare for hemodynamic monitoring, you must abstain from eating or drinking for four hours before the test. Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals need a pregnancy test for safety reasons. 

During the approximately three-hour procedure, you'll lie on an exam table as your provider utilises various monitoring techniques. It includes EKG monitoring for heart activity, blood pressure monitoring to assess pressure changes, and hemodynamic echo for detailed images of your heart. Additionally, nuclear imaging captures images using a gamma camera to evaluate blood circulation and heart function. Throughout the hemodynamic evaluation of complex congenital heart diseases, you stay awake, and your healthcare provider focuses on keeping you comfortable. While you may not experience symptoms, feeling light-headed or nauseous is common. The information gathered from this evaluation assists in pinpointing the cause of your symptoms, allowing your provider to create a tailored care plan for your cardiovascular conditions.
