Treadmill Test

TMT (Treadmill Test)

At Janani Multi-Speciality Clinic, the Treadmill Test (TMT), also known as an exercise stress test, helps doctors assess how the heart responds to physical activity. The test monitors heart rate, blood pressure, and electrical activity while the patient walks on a treadmill under medical supervision.

What Does a TMT Test Check?

A TMT helps evaluate heart function during exercise and may assist doctors in identifying certain cardiac concerns.

  • Possible signs of reduced blood supply to the heart

  • Exercise-related changes in heart rhythm

  • Heart rate and blood pressure response

  • Exercise tolerance and physical capacity

  • Symptoms such as chest discomfort or breathlessness during activity

When Is a TMT Recommended?

Your doctor may recommend a TMT based on your symptoms, medical history, and cardiovascular risk factors, including:

  • Chest discomfort during physical activity

  • Unexplained breathlessness on exertion

  • Suspected coronary artery disease

  • Evaluation of exercise-related symptoms

  • Assessment of heart response to physical activity

How Is the TMT Performed?

During the test, small electrodes are attached to the chest to record the heart’s electrical activity. The patient walks on a treadmill while its speed and incline gradually increase. Heart rate, blood pressure, and ECG readings are monitored throughout the test.

The test is performed under medical supervision and may be stopped if symptoms or concerning changes occur. Patients should follow the preparation instructions provided by their doctor.
