An electrocardiogram (also called an ECG or EKG) is performed to identify problems with the heart, such as heart disease, heart failure, cardiomyopathy, congenital heart defects, heart valve disease, or pericarditis. An electrocardiogram is a painless and non-invasive. The procedure is performed by attaching electrodes to the skin, which detect electrical impulses from the heart, indicating the size of the heart chambers, regularity of the heartbeat, and other details. Recommended for Chest pain Fast or irregular heartbeat Breathing problems Tiredness and weakness Unusual sounds from the heart

Disease prevalenceEpilepsy, which affects more than 50 million people worldwide, accounts for a significant share of the global burden of disease. It is estimated that the proportion of the total population with an active form of epilepsy (that is, with ongoing seizures or the need for treatment) at a given time is from 4 to 10 per 1000 people. However, the results of some studies in low- and middle-income countries suggest that this proportion is much higher - from 7 to 15 per 1000 people.It is estimated that globally, epilepsy is diagnosed annually in2.4 million people. In high-income countries, the number of new annual cases of the disease at the general population level is between 30 and 50 per 100,000. In low- and middle-income countries, this figure may be twice as high.Higher rates in low- and middle-income countries are likely to be associated with an increased risk of endemic diseases such as malaria and neurocysticercosis; increased rates of road traffic injuries; birth injuries, as well as differences in medical infrastructure, the availability of prevention programs and affordable medical care.nullnullnullnullmedication, surgery may help.PreventionIdiopathic epilepsy is not preventable. However, for known causes of secondary epilepsy, preventative measures can be taken.    Preventing head injuries is the most effective way to prevent post-traumatic epilepsy.     Proper perinatal care helps reduce the incidence of new epilepsy due to birth injuries.     The use of drugs and other methods to lower body temperature in children with fever can reduce the likelihood of febrile seizures.     Central nervous system infections are a common cause of epilepsy in tropical areas wherethere are many developing countries. The eradication of parasites under these conditions and educational work regarding the prevention of infections are effective ways to reduce the burden of epilepsy worldwide, for example, epilepsy due to neurocysticercosis.Allhospital would like to recommend Professor Antonio Russi (Teknon Kiron Clinic, Barcelona), one of Europe's top epileptologists. According to Professor Russi, 95 out of 100 patients manage to completely get rid of the epilepsy disease after proper treatment.Leave a request on our website and our specialists will contact you and help you choose the best clinic in accordance with your case absolutely free.

Liposuction is a surgical procedure to remove fat from beneath the skin. The procedure is performed with a narrow suction device. Some devices use ultrasound to help break down fat. Liposuction can be used to target a range of areas, including abdomen, hips, thighs, calves, arms, buttocks, back, neck, or face. Liposuction can target stubborn, unwanted fat deposits in patients who are slightly overweight or who have a normal weight, but have fat build-ups in one area. Liposuction is not recommended as a treatment for obesity, as surgeons can only remove a limited amount of fat. Recommended for Patients with stubborn deposits of fat

A dental implant is a small screw-like device that is placed into the jawbone, to replace a natural tooth. The implant acts like a tooth's roots, and over time the dental implant becomes fused to the natural bone, making it stable. Dental implants are used on patients who are missing teeth and are looking for a fixed, permanent solution which will enable them to feel confident in their looks, as well as being able to eat and talk comfortably. Normally, the implant is placed into the jawbone and then allowed to heal (and fuse to the bone or "osseointegrate") for between 6 weeks to 6 months. This allows the implant to heal without coming under pressure from chewing, and reduces the risk of implant failure. Once the implant is secure, the dentist will take an impression of the mouth in order to create a crown to sit on top of the implant and abutment (the connector in between the two). The time needed between implant placement and the attachment of the final prosthesis may vary case by case, based on the density of the jawbone and other variables. Some clinics advise that 6 weeks is enough, and other clinics offer new teeth in a day, using systems such as Straumann's Instant Load dental implants. A dental implant can be used to support a single tooth, but can also form part of a full mouth restoration. Options like All-on-4 and other Implant-Supported Dental Bridges and Implant-Supported Overdentures use a few strategically placed dental implants to hold a full arch (up to 10 or 12 teeth). Recommended for Patients with missing teeth Patients with teeth that cannot be saved and require extraction

The All-on-4 dental implant treatment was designed by Nobel Biocare, and is used to replace an entire upper or lower set of teeth. The procedure creates a permanent prosthesis by using four dental implants that act as an anchor for a bridge or overdenture of 12-to-14 teeth. Recommended for Persons who require a full arch of false teeth Persons who want to preserve the bone in their jaw Persons who seek an alternative and long-term solution to dentures
