Each year, more than a million persons in the U.S. have a heart attack and about half (515,000) of them die. About one-half of those who die do so within 1 hour of the start of symptoms and before reaching the hospital.
Every year, about 795,000 people in the United States have a stroke. About 610,000 of these are first or new strokes. About 185,000 people who survive a stroke go on to have another.
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) rupture is the third leading cause of sudden death in men over 60 in the U.S. and more than one million people are living with an undiagnosed AAA
AAA often has no warning signs, a preventive screening is an effective way to detect a potentially life-threatening aneurysm early enough for your physician to take corrective action
In a study done by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 80% of chronic diseases are preventable if detected early and managed proactively.

What Happens in a Cardiac Screening Test?
Health Risk Assessment:
The Health Risk Assessment (HRA) is a tool that gives participants an evaluation of their health and quality of life. The HRA promotes health awareness by reviewing participants' personal health history, biometric data and lifestyle practices revealing health issues that could be impacted by personal choices.
After completing the HRA, each participant receives a personal Profile Report that recommends healthy behaviors according to age group, gender, and risk level. The Profile Report presents each participant's greatest health risk factors and lists resources available to help participant reduce their future health risk
Electrocardiogram (EKG)
An EKG is a picture of your heart's electrical activity. Electrodes are placed over your body and a special machine draws an image of your heart rhythm. This allows your cardiologist to evaluate for an irregular heart rhythm and for other conditions. It takes only a few minutes to perform.
Carotid Doppler
This test is an ultrasound of the carotid arteries in your neck. An image of your carotid arteries will allow your cardiologist to determine if there are blockages in these blood vessels.
Ankle-Brachial Index
This test is a special way of taking the blood pressure of your legs. It gives your cardiologist information about how good the circulation in your legs is.
Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Ultrasound
This ultrasound exam of the abdominal aorta. This test is used to visually show the presence of an aneurysm (hich is an abnormal swelling or dilation of the artery walls). This test help your doctor to detect the presence of aortic aneurysm and the risk of abdominal aortic aneurysm rupture.
Echocardiography
This test uses high frequency sound waves sent through the body to produce an image of the moving heart muscle on a television monitor. This allows the cardiologist to examine the structure of the heart muscle and heart valves, as well as the way blood is moving through the heart. There is no special preparation before this test. The test takes 20-40 minutes and should not cause any discomfort
Lower Extremity Doppler
This test is much like a carotid Doppler, but is performed on your legs. It allows your cardiologist to determine if any arteries or veins in your legs have blockages or blood clots.
Treadmill Exercise Stress Test
The exercise stress test allows your doctor to evaluate how your heart performs with effort. You will be attached to a heart monitor and your vital signs and heart rhythm will be evaluated while you walk on a treadmil
