Cardiology Care at Apollo Clinic, Shyamnagar

Heart health for every age — consultations, paediatric cardiology, and a full range of in-house diagnostic tests, with qualified cardiologists and a diagnosis-first approach to every case.

Overview

The Cardiology department at Apollo Clinic Shyamnagar evaluates and manages conditions affecting the heart and blood vessels, for both adults and children. Symptoms such as chest pain, breathlessness, palpitations, fatigue or high blood pressure can have many different causes, and getting a clear answer depends on the right combination of clinical examination and cardiac testing.

Our cardiologists take a detailed history and perform a thorough cardiac examination before recommending any investigation. Where an ECG, echocardiogram, stress test or ambulatory monitoring is needed, it is available on-site, so the diagnosis and the treatment plan that follows it can move faster.

Heart health is closely linked to other systems — diabetes, thyroid disease, kidney function and lifestyle factors all affect cardiovascular risk. Being part of a multispeciality clinic means these connections are assessed together rather than in isolation.

Services & Diagnostic Tests Available

Consultations, paediatric cardiology and the full range of cardiac diagnostic tests are available on-site:

Service / TestWhat It Is Used For
Cardiology ConsultationsClinical evaluation of chest pain, breathlessness, palpitations, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and general heart-health assessment for adults
Paediatric CardiologyHeart evaluation for infants, children and adolescents, including murmurs, congenital heart concerns and growth-related cardiac assessment
Electrocardiogram (ECG)Records the heart's electrical activity to detect rhythm disturbances, past heart attacks and other cardiac abnormalities; usually the first test done
Echocardiogram (2D, 3D & Colour Doppler)Ultrasound imaging of the heart's chambers, valves and blood flow; used to assess pumping function, valve disease and structural heart conditions
Treadmill Test (TMT) / Stress TestMonitors the heart's response to controlled exercise; used to evaluate suspected coronary artery disease and exercise-related symptoms
Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring (ABPM)Records blood pressure at regular intervals over 24 hours during normal daily activity; used to confirm hypertension and check treatment response
Holter Monitor (24 / 48 / 72 / 96 / 120 / 144 / 168 Hrs)Continuous ECG recording over one to seven days to capture intermittent palpitations, irregular heartbeats or unexplained fainting episodes

How to Book a Consultation

  1. Book an appointment or walk in. Cardiology consultations run during OPD hours; booking ahead is advised for TMT, echocardiogram or Holter monitoring, which need a dedicated slot.
  2. Bring your reports and current medication. Carry any previous ECGs, echo reports, blood pressure records or prescriptions related to your heart health.
  3. Follow test-specific instructions. TMT requires comfortable clothing and shoes suitable for walking on a treadmill, and Holter or ABPM monitors are worn continuously for the prescribed duration — reception will confirm when booking.
  4. Examination and diagnosis. The cardiologist will take a history, examine you, and advise which tests will confirm the diagnosis.
  5. Treatment plan and follow-up. You will be given a clear plan with expected timelines, and a review appointment where the condition needs ongoing monitoring.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between an ECG and an echocardiogram?

An ECG records the heart's electrical activity and takes only a few minutes; it is usually the first test done. An echocardiogram is an ultrasound scan that shows the heart's actual structure and pumping function in real time — how well the chambers and valves are working — and takes longer. Many patients need both to get a complete picture.

Is the treadmill test (TMT) safe?

Yes, when performed under medical supervision, which is standard practice. You are monitored continuously with ECG and blood pressure recording throughout the test, and it is stopped immediately if you develop chest pain, breathlessness or any concerning change. Your cardiologist will assess whether TMT is appropriate for you before scheduling it.

Why would I need a Holter monitor instead of a normal ECG?

A standard ECG only captures a few seconds of your heart rhythm, which can miss an irregular beat that comes and goes. A Holter monitor records continuously for one to seven days during your normal activities, which is far more likely to catch an intermittent rhythm problem, especially if your palpitations or symptoms are occasional.

My child has a heart murmur — is this always serious?

Not necessarily. Many murmurs in children are "innocent" — harmless sounds related to normal blood flow — while others need further evaluation to rule out a structural heart condition. A paediatric cardiology assessment, sometimes including an echocardiogram, is the reliable way to tell the difference, so it is always worth getting checked rather than assuming either way.

I was diagnosed with high blood pressure at a routine check — do I need ABPM?

Often, yes. A single high reading in a clinic can sometimes reflect anxiety at the time of measurement rather than true hypertension ("white-coat" effect). Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring records your blood pressure over a full day during normal activity, giving a more accurate picture and helping your doctor decide whether treatment is genuinely needed.
