Consultation
You are welcome for consultation in my modern private practice in Vilvoorde
I shall take the needed time to listen to you and examine you using the most recent equipement
You will also enjoy a relax environnement and privacy, away from the business of the hospital
Technical examinations
I can offer you the following services:
ECG or electrocardiogram
A registration of the spontaneous electrical activity of your heart, which gives information about:
- Heart frequency
- arythmia
- heart infarct
- heart chamber enlargement
- some genetically based heart diseases
- etc…
Echocardiography
Litterally shows your heart. We can see :
- how the heart muscle works
- how the valves work
- if there is any chamber enlargement
- if there is any abnormal communication
- etc…
Stress test
Here we monitor your ECG during a controlled physical exertion on a cycloergometer (bicycle).
Doing so we can detect eventual coronary disease and / or some type of arythmia
We also mesure your physical condition
Holter ECG
This little portable system registers your ECG continiously during 24 hours and eventually up to 7 days
This is particularly usefull for intermittent palpitations
After the recording, the data are analysed in order to come to a diagnosis
Holter BP – blood pressure
This portable system registers your blood pressure during 24 hours
Depending on the results of your blood pressure or BP-profile an eventual treatment can be initiated or adapted
Holter ECG + BP
The combination of ECG and BP Holter within 1 portable system
Pacemaker / Defibrillator controle
I dispose of the needed equipement to controle and follow-up the pacemakers and defibrillators of all the major compagnies
Follow-up during and after hospitalisation
Following a consultation, a hospitalisation is sometimes requested for instance to implant a pacemaker or have a diagnostic coronarography (film of your coronary arteries)
I can propose you a hospitalisation in AZ Jan Portaels where, as a staff member, I will personnally follow you. I am also consultant in UZ Brussel, so that I can arrange a hospitalisation there when universitary expertise is needed
