~~ Please Note ~~ We are now performing CardioVision Testing at all of our health screenings. This is an FDA approved screening tool for arterial stiffness or hardening of the arteries. In addition to blood pressure and pulse information, the CardioVision Test generates information on the stiffness of the brachial artery that runs down the arm. Called the Arterial Stiffness Index (ASI), the ASI is a number that correlates with arteriosclerosis. Because arteriosclerosis reduces flexibility in arteries, the higher the ASI, the more likely someone is at risk for heart attack, stroke, and other circulatory diseases, including congestive heart failure. |
