Physiological function testing

Regarding physiological function testing

Electrocardiogram exams

This is an examination to diagnose cardiac illnesses such as arrhythmia, myocardial infarction, and angina pectoris.

Holter ECG setting conditions

●Resting electrocardiogram

This is recorded with electrodes on the wrist, ankle, and chest in a state of rest.

●Holter ECG

The ECG recording is performed during daily activity. Bathing or swimming is not possible during the examination.

Plethysmography

Plethysmography

This test examines the hardness and clogging of the blood vessels, which is the cause of arteriosclerosis.
The blood pressure is measured at both hands and ankles at the same time while lying on the back.

Urea Breath Test

This is an examination to check whether you are infected with Helicobacter pylori.
The exhalations before and after taking medicine are collected and inspected.
* There are dietary restrictions at least 4 hours before the test.

Respiratory function testing

Respiratory function testing

This is a test for the presence of respiratory disease and an evaluation of pulmonary function before surgery.
The examination is performed by inhaling and exhaling according to rhythmic call-out.
The value changes greatly based on the patient's exertion. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Electroencephalography

Electroencephalography

This is an examination to examine epilepsy, which causes convulsions and the loss of consciousness.
About 20 electrodes are placed on the head to record activity while closing the eyes in a resting condition.
* A sleep-introducing agent may be used if resting is difficult.

Neurophysiological tests

This examines nerve and muscular disease by stimulating with electricity or piercing with a needle.
This may cause some pain.
In addition to the above, we also conduct treadmill load electrocardiograms for measuring with an exertion electrocardiogram during exercise, and tests to find out if there is apnea during sleep.
