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.
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
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
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.
