How does it work?

How do you provide primary care cardiac testing?
How do you provide primary care cardiac testing?
Two different types of tests are currently offered as part of our primary care cardiac testing offering:
- Holter monitoring
- Cardiac echos (resting echocardiogram)
Both integrated services work slightly differently, but both enable your practice to expand your service offering to patients in a comfortable environment.
Primary Care Holter Monitoring
For patients suspected of having a cardiac arrhythmia or palpitations, Holter monitoring provides a continuous recording of a patient’s heart rhythm over 24-48 hours, and it helps detect and diagnose symptoms of arrhythmia that may go unnoticed during a standard ECG test.
This service enables the integration of Holter monitoring into your clinic as part of your standard weekly workflow, without the need to send patients offsite for testing.
Traditionally, GPs would need to refer patients to a Cardiologist or other testing facilities to have Holter monitoring recorded. This integration enables your team to fit the device to the patient, and still be reported by cardiac electrophysiologists with a 24-hour reporting turnaround.
Integrated into your practice
- Once you sign up for the service, we will send the monitor to your clinic.
- Your staff will apply the monitor and we will do the rest.
- Training will be provided to your team to ensure smooth and efficient running of your service.
- Clinician-friendly reports will be returned to your practice management software within 24 hours.
- Patients will remain in the comfort of your clinic while receiving access to high-quality cardiac care.

Cardiac Echo
Echocardiograms help doctors assess cardiac structure and function through the use of ultrasound images of the heart. Ventricular function, valvular structure and function, diastolic and systolic function, as well as cardiac and great vessel anatomy, are all assessed with echocardiography.
Many of these findings are not possible to be detected on a clinical examination and a range of diagnoses and treatments can follow from initial echocardiogram, helping to improve patient outcomes and treatment plans.
It can be hard for patients to go off-site for testing, so we will bring the testing services to your clinic. If your practice refers a high volume of patients offsite for echocardiogram testing, you can schedule a regular in-clinic echo service.
How does it work?
Advara HeartCare will bring the portable equipment to your practice and utilise otherwise empty or redundant space within the clinic.
Our 100% cloud-based image and report archiving solution allows live viewing of patient images through a web browser.
Our echocardiography service has been awarded full accreditation through the Diagnostic Imaging Accreditation Scheme (DIAS) Standards. The accreditation framework is based on national standards set by the Commonwealth Department of Health.
