What is Treadmill Test (TMT)

In today‘s time, heart disease has become one of the biggest health problems in the world. Heart diseases are increasing rapidly due to changing lifestyles, wrong eating habits, stress and lack of physical activity. In such a situation, timely diagnosis and treatment becomes very important. The treadmill test (TMT) is an important way to test heart function. It is also called a stress test. The treadmill test looks at how your heart and blood circulation work when your body does physical activity. When we exercise or run, there is extra strain on the heart. During this time, heartbeat, blood pressure, and ECG pattern are monitored. If any kind of disturbance appears during this time, then it can be a sign of early heart problem.

Why is TMT important?

Many people do not know the problem of heart in a state of rest, because there is not much pressure on the heart at that time. But when the body is active, then the heart has to work harder. At the same time, blockage, lack of oxygen supply or disturbance in electrical activity are detected. That‘s why doctors recommend TMT to examine the heart in depth.

Dr. Munish Dev, a renowned cardiologist from Chandigarh Tricity, advises his patients to get this test done at the right time so that major heart problems can be prevented in time.

Benefits of Treadmill Test

Dr. Munish Dev believes that a timely TMT test can prevent a major heart attack. In their clinic, this test is done with the latest technology and under complete safety.

Who Should Get a Treadmill Test?

The treadmill test (TMT) is not necessary for every person, but for some people, this test can prove to be lifesaving. This is especially done for those who are at high risk of heart disease or who show symptoms of heart disease. Let‘s know who must get this test done.

Diabetes patients
The risk of heart disease in patients with diabetes is many times higher than normal people. Diabetes does not allow blood sugar to be controlled and it damages the arteries. In such a situation, the risk of blockage and coronary artery disease increases. It is very important for diabetic patients to get TMT done from time to time.
People with high blood pressure
People whose blood pressure is high for a long time, there is constant pressure on their heart. This condition increases the risk of heart attack or stroke. TMT is an important test for such patients to find out how the heart is handling this pressure.
People with chest pain or breathlessness
If you have frequent chest pain or feel breathless while walking, it can be a sign of a heart problem. Do not ignore such symptoms and get TMT done immediately after consulting a doctor.
People with a family history of heart attack
If someone in your family has had a heart attack at a young age, then your risk is also high. In such a situation, it is necessary to get regular heart checkups and TMT should be done as per the doctor‘s advice.
Patients with high cholesterol
Increasing the level of cholesterol in the blood leads to plaque accumulation in the arteries, which increases the risk of blockage and heart attack. If your cholesterol level is high, your doctor will advise you to get a TMT.
People with stress and busy lifestyles
Stress is common in today‘s run–of-the-mill life. Long–term stress has a bad effect on the heart. This test is also useful for people who are under constant mental pressure.
People starting sports or fitness programs
If you want to start a new fitness program, especially high–intensity workouts, it is better to find out your cardiovascular capacity by getting TMT done.

Dr. Munish Dev uses each patient‘s medical history to decide whether he/she should undergo this test or not. Their purpose is patient safety and correct diagnosis.
