Cardiology

MONITOR YOUR HEART HEALTH TODAY!
“Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death globally.” — World Health Organization (WHO)

Severe complications such as sudden cardiac arrest, heart attack, and stroke can occur unexpectedly—even in individuals without clear symptoms. Alarming shifts show an increasing incidence of heart disease in people under 45.

Risk factors include obesity, hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, smoking, sedentary lifestyle, chronic stress, and regular alcohol consumption. Even those engaged in high-intensity sports may face hidden risk if undergoing no routine cardiac check-ups.

These factors contribute to atherosclerosis—the buildup of plaques in blood vessel walls that impair blood flow and elevate the risk of heart attack, stroke, and heart failure. Additionally, genetic predispositions and underlying conditions play a major role in arrhythmias, cardiomyopathies, and congenital heart disease.

Regular cardiovascular screening is the best way to detect early, intervene appropriately, and protect your heart health.

FEATURED SERVICES

At CarePlus Clinics, our Cardiology Department offers comprehensive outpatient services for metabolic and cardiovascular patients:

Consultation, screening, diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up

Conditions addressed include hypertension, coronary artery disease (pre‑ and post‑stenting), cardiomyopathy (e.g., alcohol‑induced), heart failure, arrhythmias, obesity, and metabolic disorders

CarePlus is also equipped with systems to manage chronic cardiovascular and metabolic diseases—a modern care model widely adopted in developed countries. This proactive approach helps prevent costly complications (e.g., hospitalization, stenting, heart surgery) and reduces future healthcare burdens.

INTRODUCING OUR CARDIOLOGY TEAM

CarePlus’ Cardiology Department includes more than 10 highly experienced specialists, trained in areas such as cardiovascular imaging, fetal congenital heart screening, coronary artery disease risk assessment, and early detection of arrhythmias. Our dedicated team supports you throughout screening, diagnosis, treatment, and ongoing heart health care.

CarePlus is trusted by many families for outpatient heart care thanks to these advantages:

• Accurate diagnosis with minimized medication use
• Expert consultation on hypertension, diabetes, obesity, etc., enabling coordinated and effective treatment
• Thorough counseling so patients fully understand their conditions and actively participate in their care
• Assistance with emergency hospitalization procedures and liaison with major hospitals (Nhân dân 115 Hospital, Ho Chi Minh City Heart Institute, University Medical Center HCMC, Children’s Hospitals, etc.)

COMPREHENSIVE DIAGNOSTIC TECHNOLOGIES

CarePlus is equipped with a full range of diagnostic devices and technologies to monitor cardiovascular indicators remotely, ensuring optimal disease management. Key highlights include:

• MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING (MRI SCAN)

MRI enables accurate screening of conditions that increase the risk of stroke, such as cerebral aneurysms and carotid atherosclerosis. Cardiac MRI also allows detailed assessment of heart function, detection of myocardial infarction scars, and diagnosis of hypertrophic or dilated cardiomyopathy—all without invasive procedures.

• COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY (CT SCAN)

This technique uses X-rays to create detailed images of internal organs, helping evaluate blood vessels, brain structures, and more. CT scanning is highly effective in detecting vascular abnormalities, such as abdominal aortic aneurysms, vascular stenosis, or occlusions. It is often indicated when clinical symptoms or relevant medical history are present.

• CAREPLUS CARDIO – CARDIOVASCULAR MONITORING AND MANAGEMENT FEATURE

The CarePlus Cardio function—an intelligent heart health assistant on the CarePlus Vietnam mobile app—offers cutting-edge technology for cardiovascular self-care:

1. Active daily tracking of heart rate, blood pressure, and more in a modern, efficient way
2. Visualized data presented in chart format for easy interpretation, with alerts when values fall outside normal ranges
3. Online cardiology consultation via in-app chat
4. Automatic synchronization with blood pressure measuring devices, allowing doctors to monitor home-based readings in real-time

• 7-DAY BLOOD PRESSURE MONITORING – A SCIENTIFIC APPROACH TO STROKE RISK SCREENING

This service provides a scientific evaluation of a patient’s average blood pressure over seven days, allowing early identification of high blood pressure and timely intervention.

Patients will receive a free blood pressure monitor along with full guidance on how to measure blood pressure accurately throughout the 7-day period.

• EXERCISE STRESS TEST (TREADMILL ECG)

Indicated for the diagnosis of:

1. Ischemic heart disease
2. Coronary artery disease
3. Hypertension
4. Heart valve diseases
5. Heart failure
6. Coronary insufficiency
7. Fainting (syncope), palpitations, and chest discomfort

• HOLTER ECG – BITTIUM FAROS

This compact, waterproof device continuously records electrocardiogram (ECG) activity for up to 7 days, covering periods of exercise, stress, and sleep. The data is analyzed by international experts to ensure diagnostic accuracy.

The device is lightweight, waterproof, and does not interfere with daily activities—offering maximum comfort and convenience during use.

CarePlus is the first clinic system in Vietnam to own and operate the Bittium Faros Holter ECG.

7‑DAY BLOOD PRESSURE MONITORING SERVICE
This service allows CarePlus cardiologists to scientifically assess average blood pressure over a full week and detect early warning signs. Participants receive a free blood pressure monitor and instructions on proper measurement for accurate tracking.
