These statistics are presented only in the hope that they may be interesting to some people. The word 'prevalence' of Insomnia usually means the estimated population of people who are managing Insomnia at any given time (i.e. people with Insomnia). The term 'incidence' of Insomnia means the annual diagnosis rate, or the number of new cases of Insomnia diagnosed each year (i.e. getting Insomnia).
Exercise Stress Test. A stress test, sometimes called a treadmill test or exercise test, helps a doctor find out how well your heart handles work. As your body works harder during the test, it requires more oxygen, so the heart must pump more blood. The test can show if the blood supply is reduced in the arteries that supply the heart.
Your doctor will diagnose a heart attack based on your signs and symptoms, your medical and family histories, and test results. An EKG is a simple, painless test that detects and records the heart's electrical activity. The test shows how fast the heart is beating and its rhythm (steady or irregular). An EKG also records the strength and timing of electrical signals as they pass through each part of the heart. An EKG can show signs of heart damage due to coronary heart disease (CHD) and signs of a previous or current heart attack.
