Cardiology

ECGs are performed at many of our collection centres by appointment and the tracing can either be delivered direct to the doctor or it can be returned with a full cardiologist report.

Holter Monitors are performed at the request of your doctor and provide a 24 hour record of your ECG with information about heart rate and rhythm.

  1. The Holter Monitor is worn for 24 hours and has to be fitted and removed at one of our collection centres by appointment.
  2. 24-hr Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitors are designed to measure blood pressure at regular intervals throughout the day and night.
  3. This test is recommended as a more reliable assessment of blood pressure than single reading.
  4. The recording device and pressure cuff have to be fitted and removed at one of our designated collection centres by appointment (or at a more convenient location by special arrangement) and you need to return to the same centre.

Please note:

ECGs and Holter Monitors are reimbursed under Medicare (bulk-billed).

Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitors are not yet reimbursed under Medicare (there is no charge for DVA Gold Card holders).
