my mom has an appointment tomorrow with her cardiologist. The first check up since being admitted 2 times to the ER for an elevated BP of 150-180. They want to do a electrocardio mapping to re-route the way her heart is firing. Can you tell me more about the procedure and the combination of taking Cardizem and Lisinipril?
Dear-thanks for using our service. The procedure is a way to manage arrhythmia. The cardiologist applies local medication by a catheter and see the reaction of the heart to it. It is also called electrophysiologist studies. The combination of Cardie and Lisinopril is good, the first one is a calcium channel blocker that is indicated for arrhythmia, as supraventricular tachycardia. Lisinopril is an ACE inhibitor, which is good for hypertensive cardiovascular disease and helps to control heart enlargement. I hope that my advice has been helpful Chat Doctor.
