What kind of diagnosis will I receive?

​

In Geriatric cardiology, tests like blood tests or scans will be similar to general cardiology. What is more critical when diagnosing geriatric patients will be:

​

• Assessing symptoms amidst multimorbid conditions and multiple causes

• Interpretation of diagnostic testing in context of age

• Diagnosing cardiac disease in relation to geriatric syndromes (falls, dizziness, syncope, weakness)
