Treadmill Service at Hermina Pandanaran Hospital

The treadmill test is an examination carried out to assess the ability of the heart by giving loads or physical activity according to the patient's condition. The load on the heart is carried out gradually starting from light activities such as walking on a treadmill to running at a certain speed according to the patient's ability. This test is also known as an exercise stress test and can be done with media other than a treadmill, for example with a special medical stationary bike.

The implementation of the treadmill test is handled by a Cardiologist and Blood Vessel Specialist who is experienced in their field. Information about the condition of the heart will be detected based on the results of this test.
