Know your Heart, Get Screened!

Our Mobile Screening Events

Heart Screens for Teens knows how important it is to screen as many students as possible… and since 20% of our population is IN our schools, that’s where we need to be!… We take Cardiac Screening TO YOU!

What happens during a Cardiac Screening?

Our Heart Screens Include:

Questions regarding your Family History and Current Health Status
Blood Pressure Check
An Electrocardiogram (EKG), a common test that looks for an irregularity in the rhythm of your Heart.
A Limited Echocardiogram (ECHO / Cardiac Ultrasound) to look for the most common Cardiac Conditions and Diseases that cause Sudden Cardiac Death (SCD)

On the day of your Screening, prepare as follows:

Please refrain from wearing lotions and perfumes.
Please do not drink caffeinated beverages at least two hours prior to Screening.
Girls should wear a Sports Bra, if possible, however, gowns will be provided upon request.
Boys will be asked to take shirts off, however, gowns will be provided upon request.

PLEASE NOTE:

All Results are read by our Board-Certified Pediatric Cardiologist, and will be sent via US mail or emailed, within 1-2 weeks after Screening. However, should our Cardiologist feel you need a follow-up, you will be notified right away, and an appointment will be made with your Primary Care Doctor.

Our Screenings are NOT intended for students who are currently under the care of a Cardiologist; nor are they a substitute for regular visits to your Family Doctor.
