The Heart Testings Journey: A Complete Patient’s Guide to Every Cardiac Test, From First Symptom to Lifelong Care - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

From a first chest twinge to lifelong preventive care, The Heart Testing Journey walks patients and families through every major cardiac test used in modern cardiovascular medicine — explained in plain language, grounded in current clinical evidence, and brought to life through real patient stories.

Organized around the patient’s actual journey rather than medical specialty, this comprehensive guide covers everything from the resting ECG and blood biomarkers to cardiac catheterization, electrophysiology studies, and genetic testing for inherited heart conditions. Each chapter includes patient scenarios, detailed “what to expect” preparation instructions, illustrative images, “what happens next” decision trees, guideline-based explanations, myth-vs-fact sections, and key takeaways — all written at an accessible easy reading level.

Written by Rosy Gautam, CRNP, and Dr. Bishnu Subedi, MD, FACC, this book is designed to be both a first-symptom companion and a lifelong reference for anyone navigating cardiovascular care.
