What happens if a serious problem is detected at the screening event?
SafeHeart has emergency protocols in place, established by our Medical Director, which cover situations involving critical findings. We have an Interpreting Physician on call for each screening event, and if a critical finding is detected by the technologist, the on-call physician will be consulted, and participants may be notified to seek immediate medical attention. Participants may also receive documentation of the critical finding that they will be able to share with their medical provider. Our personnel are CPR-trained and we have Automatic External Defibrillators (AEDs) available at each of our screening events.
