Sometimes when patients come to our screenings, our cardiologists recommend they get an echocardiogram for our on-site echo tech. Echocardiograms are ultrasounds of the heart.

Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy, or "broken heart syndrome," is caused by a sudden rush of stress hormones or emotional shock. The condition is different than a heart attack and requires medical attention.

As heart health month comes to a close, we highlight the various ways a heart can change. Heart development and abilities change throughout an individual's life and can also be impacted by various social and environmental factors.

SHF is thrilled to have had the opportunity to host a heart screening at Agoura High last Saturday. We were able to screen 177 individuals and found 2 students who were recommended to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation of a potentially dangerous finding.
