The signs of a heart attack are different for women. As with men, women’s most common heart attack symptom is chest pain or discomfort. But women may experience other symptoms that are typically less associated with heart attack, such as shortness of breath, nausea/vomiting, and back or jaw pain. Women are also more likely to ignore their symptoms. Dr. Eduardo Sanchez shares what you should know about heart attacks in men and women.

A new study finds that chronic stress can lead to higher blood pressure, even in people without preexisting conditions. Even if your blood pressure is normal, high stress levels may put you at risk of developing hypertension within the next decade. Doubling the levels of cortisol alone was associated with a 90% higher risk of having a cardiovascular event. The American Heart Association published the study.
Dr. Abhay Laddu, cardiologist at SSM Health St. Joseph Hospital in Lake St. Louis says, “The higher one’s stress level is the greater one’s risk is for developing the same type of outcomes heart attack, chest pain, high blood pressure, stroke.”

Cardiac stress tests are often ordered by doctors to investigate potential problems with the heart. They can help identify blockages and other potential problems without using invasive procedures like a heart catheter.
In this video, I talk about the different types of heart stress tests (also called cardiac stress tests). There are many types, and sometimes different names are used. You may have heard terms like cardiac stress test, echo stress test, chemical stress test, nuclear stress test, lexiscan stress test, cardiolite stress test, treadmill stress test, adenosine stress test, thallium stress test, or dobutamine stress tests. All of those names correspond to a particular drug or method of stress testing.

Your doctor has ordered a nuclear medicine stress test for you—now what? Here’s what to expect and how to get ready for your exam.
Fort Lauderdale, FL cardiac imaging specialist Claudio Smuclovisky, MD, talks about the most common cause of death in the world – heart disease – and how technology at Holy Cross Hospital in South Florida can detect cardiovascular disease years before it is detectable by traditional tests and screenings. Cardiac CT using our 256 slice CT scanner provides detailed 3D images of the heart, its vessels, involves 90% less radiation than nuclear stress testing, and the images are acquired rapidly – within two heart beats.
Talk to your doctor about the importance of cardiovascular screenings. To make an appointment for a cardiac CT at the Holy Cross Harry T. Mangurian, Jr., Diagnostic Imaging Center, call 954-202-0277.
