Heart is one of life critical organs that works relentlessly round the year to pump blood and nutrition throughout the body. With such a workload, it is susceptible to wear and tear. The heart health is also affected by our erratic lifestyles and diet patterns. Hence, periodically assessing the health of the heart by clinical check-up is crucial to prevent cardio vascular diseases and preserve heart function for a long time.

Regular screening of the heart helps you identify the risk factors at an early stage and take up necessary therapies to prevent more complicated conditions. A mild deviation in the test parameters always doesn’t mean that it will lead to grave heart disorders, but it will give you a chance to alter your lifestyle to have positive effect on the heart health. For many people the test results might prove to be wake-up call i.e. it might discover a potential condition on threshold.

Though everyone above the age of 25 are encouraged to go for regular heart health check, people with following risk factors should follow a scheduled heart check routine.
