Treadmill Test (TMT) – Cardiac Stress Test in Chennai
What is a Treadmill Test (TMT)?
A Treadmill Test (TMT), also called a Cardiac Stress Test, is a non-invasive procedure used to evaluate how your heart responds to physical exertion. It is commonly recommended to detect coronary artery disease, identify abnormal heart rhythms, or assess overall cardiac fitness.
At Royal Care Diagnostics, we offer advanced TMT testing in Chennai using state-of-the-art equipment under expert supervision. This test helps detect hidden heart issues that may not appear when you’re at rest.
Why is TMT Done?
- To assess blood flow to the heart muscle during physical activity
- To evaluate chest pain, palpitations, or shortness of breath
- To monitor heart health after a heart attack or angioplasty
- To guide treatment for heart disease and check for effectiveness
How Does It Work?
During the test, you’ll walk on a motorized treadmill. The speed and incline gradually increase. Electrodes placed on your chest monitor your ECG (electrocardiogram), heart rate, and blood pressure in real-time. The test typically lasts 10–15 minutes.
Is the TMT Safe?
Yes, TMT is safe for most people when performed under trained supervision. The procedure is stopped immediately if any discomfort or abnormal readings occur. All safety protocols are followed as per cardiology guidelines.
