Who we are and what we do
Get tested for Hypertension
Cardiotech Healthcare is committed to providing an easily accessible, personalised and
affordable test that gives vital information about the cardiovascular system. The Vascular Age Testing
is non-invasive and is done as an outpatient in a Galway private hospital.
The test can detect narrowing of the blood vessels to the legs resulting in poor circulation
or peripheral arterial disease (PAD). It also measures the speed that the pulse travels within
the arterial system which is known as pulse wave velocity and is associated with the
hardening of blood vessels, a condition known as arterial stiffness (arteriosclerosis).
Both these findings if present are independent risk factors for cardiovascular disease.
