Before the check-up
Please come to the practice in the morning on an empty stomach for the blood test. Please do not eat any solid food after midnight.
You will need a full bladder for the ultrasound examination, so please drink enough. Suitable beverages are water and unsweetened or artificially sweetened tea. Coffee, milk and fruit juices are not permitted.
Procedure
The blood sample, electrocardiogram, lung function test and chest X-ray are followed by an ultrasound examination of the abdominal organs and the carotid artery. You will then be served a hearty breakfast with a daily newspaper. You will then be interviewed and examined in detail by one of our medical specialists for an hour.
In the next step, your eyesight and hearing will be tested. This is followed by an exercise ECG on a bicycle. This records whether your heart and blood pressure are behaving normally under physical stress.
After a shower, our doctor will be available to discuss all the results with you and give you further recommendations and tips.
The Cadre Check-up takes about 4.5 hours. Please reserve enough time from the date you have chosen.
