CRY ECG Screening Clinics

 

CRY holds ECG screening clinics for those aged 14 to 35 at a number of locations around the UK - Belfast, Birmingham, Cardiff, Colchester, Edinburgh, Leeds, London, Liverpool and Newcastle.  The CRY mobile screening unit facilitates various screening events at other locations in the UK - often organised by CRY supporters.

What is an ECG test?

An Electrocardiogram (ECG) is a test which looks at the electrical conduction pathways around the heart. Small stickers known as electrodes are placed on the client's chest and the wires from the electrodes connected to an ECG machine whilst you lie still.

A printout of the heart's electrical activity is obtained for evaluation by the cardiologist. This test is painless, non-invasive and takes just a few minutes to perform.

Philips are donating advanced medical equipment that will enable CRY to gain greater research results with their screenings whilst reaching more young people than ever before

 

CRY clinics use medically qualified personnel to screen people between the ages of 14 and 35 (inclusive).  Younger children can sometimes be included by special request, but ordinarily we only see people of 14 years and above. This is because ECG testing on pre-pubescent children is inconclusive. 

To book an appointment at any of these screening clinics, click on the date to be re-directed to our online booking system.  Alternatively, to make enquiries by telephone or e-mail, please use the contact details below.
