Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA) affects up to 50% of patients with hypertension, coronary artery disease, or atrial fibrillation—and up to 80% of those with heart failure. Its strong two-way link with cardiovascular disease highlights the need for both sleep and cardiac testing in at-risk patients.

An exercise tolerance test and an exercise stress echocardiogram both evaluate how the heart performs under physical stress, but they differ in technique and accuracy.

Both are used to detect heart disease, guide treatment decisions, and assess suitability for exercise or cardiac rehabilitation.

"80% of cardiac patients are impacted by sleep. If someone snores and stops breathing, their chances of developing a cardiac problem are really high so we need to think that cardiology isn’t just about the heart.”- Jez Morris.

Jez Morris, General Manager of CardioScan Aotearoa, spoke with the Whanganui Chronicle about poor health outcomes in rural New Zealand, where access to cardiac care is limited and mortality rates are high. Jez stressed the importance of early diagnosis and prevention.

CardioScan Aotearoa provides cardiac, respiratory, and sleep diagnostics to communities, GPs, and hospitals, with clinics in New Plymouth, Rotorua, Palmerston North, and Whanganui.
