Cardiovascular examinations at home
Welcome to Vie à Coeur
Founded in 2021 and directed by Véronique Ranger, medical electrophysiology technologist since 2003. While the Quebec health system is already weakened, this Covid 19 pandemic is setting in and ravaging our hospitals.
Unfortunately, waiting times for all kinds of examinations are becoming considerably longer. Cardiology departments that were already saturated are now overwhelmed.
By founding Life at Heart, Véronique Ranger wants to allow everyone to benefit from certain cardiology services quickly. Vie à cœur services are carried out at home to allow access to all and offer peace of mind.
We are proud to have innovated in this area! We are ready to take care of you because we have your life at heart!
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a resting ECG take?
5 minutes at most.
How long do you have a Holter monitor on for?
It depends on the medical request. It varies between 24 hours, 48 hours and a week.
Can I bathe with a Holter or a Mapa?
Generally, 24 hours but sometimes 48 hours.
Can I bathe with a Holter or a Mapa?
No, as this would cause the device to break. On the other hand, it is allowed to wash you with a wipe.
Can I have a resting ECG, a Holter or a Mapa without a prescription?
No, you absolutely must have a prescription from your doctor.
Do I need to return the equipment to someone after the exam?
No. We will return to your home to remove the device.
Should I send the results to my doctor afterward?
No. We take care of quickly sending the results to your doctor.
Is there something I need to do to prepare for the exam?
You should know that with a Holter and a Mapa you will not be able to wash yourself. Plan to do it before we arrive. For men who have to pass a Holter and have a chest with hair, it would be preferable to shave it. If necessary we will do it for you. A loose, short-sleeved sweater is appropriate for a Mapa.
Who can take these exams?
A person of any age, with a medical request.
Should I stop any activities while wearing the Holter or Mapa?
No, you should go about your day as normal to give us an accurate picture of your daily life.
What is the cost for at home services?
Our services start at $110. Contact us to find out more.
