Shortness of breath (especially during activity or while lying down)
Swelling in the legs, ankles, or feet (edema)
Fatigue or weakness
Rapid or irregular heartbeat
Persistent cough or wheezing
Sudden weight gain from fluid buildup

Diagnostic Services for Heart Failure

At Cardioclinic, we use advanced testing to diagnose and monitor heart failure, including:

Electrocardiogram (EKG) – detects heart rhythm problems
Echocardiogram (ECHO) – evaluates heart pumping strength (ejection fraction)
Stress Testing – measures heart function during activity
Cardiac MRI / CT – detailed imaging of heart muscle and blood flow
Blood Tests – including BNP levels to assess fluid overload

Risk Factors for Heart Failure

Heart failure can develop after other heart conditions weaken the heart muscle. Risk factors include:

Coronary artery disease (CAD)
High blood pressure (hypertension)
Previous heart attack
Diabetes
Valvular heart disease
Obesity and sedentary lifestyle
Sleep apnea
