Cardiovascular Risk Screening
In New Zealand, Cardiovascular disease kills one person every 90 minutes. Cardiovascular disease and stroke is the number 1 cause of death in NZ with 1 in 20 adults diagnosed.
Most of us do not even know that we have cardiovascular disease, but it is predictable and in most cases it is preventable.
After years of research and development we are excited to present Cardiaction— a heart screening process and app that displays and explains your heart screening results and provides educational information on the importance of improving these metrics for better heart health.
The fundamental component of Cardiaction involves a pulse wave analysis (PWA) test which can determine your risk factors for heart disease and is undertaken by one of our expert screeners. This is pain free, non-invasive and the results are available in minutes.
After your PWA test, our friendly screener will explain your results and assess your potential risk of cardiovascular disease as well as showing you how to use Cardiaction to improve your heart and artery health—all with personalised recommendations. If your results are serious Health Screening NZ will refer you to your GP or a cardiologist and you will be able to share your PWA results with them.
Health Screening NZ is currently offering these cutting-edge PWA heart screenings in select Christchurch pharmacies in Rolleston, Ilam and New Brighton. Simply book through our website and attend your appointment in the location which is easiest for you.
