What are the most common tests used to diagnose heart conditions?

Early diagnosis of heart conditions is crucial for preventing severe complications such as heart attacks, strokes, or heart failure. Detecting issues like high blood pressure, arrhythmias, or blocked arteries in their early stages allows for timely intervention, including lifestyle changes, medication, or surgical procedures. Early diagnosis also improves treatment outcomes, reducing the risk of permanent heart damage. By addressing heart conditions early, individuals can manage symptoms more effectively, lower healthcare costs, and improve their overall quality of life. Regular screenings and prompt attention to symptoms like chest pain or shortness of breath are essential for heart health.
