We have a specialist clinic which monitors the progress and maximises the treatment of those patients with established heart disease.
This includes patients with a diagnosis of coronary arterial disease, heart failure, atrial fibrillation, and angina as well as those with peripheral arterial disease or a history of stroke or transient ischaemic attack (TIA).
The aims of the clinic are to help patients modify their lifestyles to help themselves to control blood pressure, reduce cholesterol, improve heart function, in order to improve the quality and duration of lives, by:
- Improving their diet.
- Stopping smoking.
- Increasing their regular exercise levels.
- Introducing medication.
