Physical diagnostics<\/strong><\/span> – The individual risk for the occurrence of serious cardiovascular diseases such as stroke and heart attack can be assessed by special examinations. The extent of existing vascular changes and changes in cardiac output and heart valve function can also be recorded.<\/p>

Diabetes (diabetes mellitus) can be diagnosed in the early stages, long before consequential damage has occurred.
Various malignant diseases can be effectively treated and cured through early detection. Deficiencies and imbalances in the areas of nutrition, hormones, vitamins and trace elements can be measured and, if necessary, compensated.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Methods<\/strong><\/span> – Appropriate research methods are:<\/p>\n

\u2981 Detailed medical consultation and physical examination to record known risks and directly recognizable illnesses<\/p>\n

\u2981 ECG and stress ECG (Electric current curves of the heart at rest and under stress)<\/p>\n

\u2981 Laboratory tests: Blood cells, kidney values, liver values, pancreas, lipids with cholesterol and subfractions, triglycerides, lipoprotein A, hormones, vitamins, trace elements, tumor markers and much more.<\/p>\n

\u2981 Ultrasound examination of the carotid arteries (duplex sonography) to assess changes (paques, narrowing) that can lead to a stroke<\/p>\n

\u2981 Ultrasound examination of the heart (echocardiography)
Among other things, to assess the pumping function of the heart (assessment of heart failure and heart attacks), the function of the four heart valves and the ability of the heart to relax<\/p>\n

\u2981 Ultrasound examination of the leg arteries
for assessing calcium and cholesterol deposits as an expression of general vascular diseases and preliminary stages of circulatory disorders in the legs<\/p>\n

\u2981 Ultrasound examination of the heart under stress
(stress echocardiography) for the assessment of circulatory disorders of the heart<\/p>\n

\u2981 Holter ECG for the diagnosis of cardiac arrhythmias and preliminary stages of strokes (atrial fibrillation)<\/p>\n

\u2981 Long-term blood pressure measurement as the gold standard for assessing blood pressure, including nocturnal blood pressure readings<\/p>\n

\u2981 Lung function test to assess narrowing of the airways and the ability of the lungs to expand<\/p>\n

\u2981 Thyroid Ultrasound for recording enlargements, knots and other changes<\/p>\n

\u2981 Bio-impedance measurement to assess the body’s compound systems<\/p>\n

\u2981 ENutritional Screening for recording the components of nutrient intake<\/p>\n

\u2981 Ultrasound examination of the abdomen to detect changes in the abdominal organs and, if necessary, new growths<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Together with the physician, the performed examinations are discussed in detail and the results are evaluated for the creation of an individual risk profile and the approaches for prevention of the above-mentioned diseases resulting from the examination results.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The individual prevention concept is drawn up together with specialists in cardiovascular diseases, diabetology, nutritional medicine, physiotherapy and other employees.
The stages of the prevention concept are discussed together and a plan for implementation is agreed. In addition to classic scientific and medical aspects, advanced approaches are also offered. The effectiveness of the prevention concept can be tracked together over the long term through personal discussions and online consultations.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

At the Gl\u00fcckstadt Hospital we see people holistically in their unity of body, mind and soul. The risk of serious illnesses such as a stroke, heart attack, diabetes and, for example, colon cancer can be effectively reduced by preventive measures (prevention). Overloading of the body and psyche that causes illness can be counteracted by taking appropriate measures.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
