Cardiac & Respiratory

The Ulster Independent Clinic provides a complete range of non-invasive cardiac and respiratory diagnostic tests. These procedures are carried out by highly skilled, qualified and experienced physiologists and are reported on by leading consultants.

We’re here to change people’s lives for the better. So we will always put patients first.

Cardiac >

Working in partnership with PEI Surgical Ltd, our very dedicated and energetic cardiac investigations team provides a personal and caring service to patients of all ages, from newborn to the elderly.

We ensure that all tests are carried out to the highest standards and with maximum patient satisfaction. Tests include electrocardiogram (ECG), Echocardiogram (Echo), Exercise Stress Testing (EST), Ambulatory Heart Rate Monitoring (AHRM), Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring (ABPM), Stress Echocardiograms and bubble studies for adults and paediatric patients, where applicable.

The primary objectives of these tests are to:

  • identify potential cardiac causes of patient symptoms, eg, chest pain, palpitation, dizziness or fainting, breathlessness, etc.
  • assess the outcome of interventional therapy such as an ablation (removal of tissue) or insertion of stents etc.
  • monitor the impact of drug therapy on symptoms or arrhythmia
  • assess for ischaemia (inadequate or constricted blood supply)
  • perform a cardiac screening service to patients
  • comply with Occupational Health requirements.

Referrals are required by a consultant, GP or via occupational health. All results are returned to the referring source.
