What is a stress test?
This is a test that helps the doctor evaluate how well your heart functions. A stress test determines how the amount of workload the heart can handle before there is evidence of ischemia or developing an abnormal rhythm. The test is carried out as an exercise especially on the treadmill. The test helps the doctor determine what kind of exercise is right for you.
Nuclear stress test: This test evaluates the heart and helps determine which parts are not functioning properly. A safe amount of radioactive substance is injected into the body and a special camera used to locate the rays emitted. Images are then displayed on a monitor. The test is done while at rest and while exercising.
Your chest area is cleaned and small electrodes are placed on it. The electrodes are small sticky flat patches that are attached to an electrocardiograph monitor (EKG or ECG). This charts your heart’s electrical activity while at rest and during the exercise test.
You walk slowly on the treadmill or pedal on a stationary bicycle. Gradually the degree of difficulty is increased until you feel exhausted.
At regular intervals, the doctor and technician will ask how tired you are feeling and if you are experiencing ant discomfort.
After the test is complete you will cool own by continuing the exercise for a few minutes. Your blood pressure and heart rate will be mitered until they return t normal.
How long does the test take?
The test generally lasts for one hour. However, the actual exercise time is between 5-10minutes. If a nuclear stress test is performed it could last for 4 hours. This is to allow the radioactive substance to flow through the body.
