Visual Acuity Assessment and Glaucoma TestWoman

Audiometric Hearing Screen/Audiogram

This test screens for the early signs of hearing loss. The Audiometer will produce a number of tones and beeps are varying frequencies. This test is accurate enough to determine a 20% hearing loss in just one ear. In order to avoid background noise our earphones come with special noise cancelling ear plugs that allow precision without the inconvenience of putting our clients into a close spaced booth.

Resting electrocardiogram/12 lead ECG

PaddlingECG (electrocardiogram) is a test that measures the electrical activity of the heart. The heart is a muscular organ that beats in rhythm to pump the blood through the body.

The signals that make the heart’s muscle fibres contract come from the sinoatrial node, which is the natural pacemaker of the heart.

In an ECG test, the electrical impulses made while the heart is beating are recorded and usually shown on a piece of paper. This is known as an electrocardiogram, and records any problems with the heart’s rhythm, and the conduction of the heart beat through the heart which may be affected by underlying heart disease.

Respiratory function

Using SpO2 by pulse oximetry as well as Pulmonary/Respiratory function by spirometry and flow-volume loop test Medpoint can screen for a number of Respiratory concerns. Lung diseases that are commonly found include COPD, Emphysema and Asthma to name a few.Yoga

Ankle-brachial Index

Peripheral vascular disease is a problem that affects many of our patients. Identifying patients with PVD is important, as PVD is a risk marker for a number of conditions, including: coronary disease, cerebrovascular disease, aneurysmal disease, diabetes, and hypertension. Having documented PVD increases the risk of cardiovascular mortality 4-6 times over healthy age-matched individuals.

A simple and useful test to assess lower extremity arterial perfusion is the ankle-brachial index (ABI). This test can be easily performed using a handheld Doppler device and a blood pressure cuff.

Bone Density

Screening a client’s bone mineral density is a reliable way to screen for osteoporosis and their risk of bone fracture. Our minimally evasive test is accurate and takes very little of our clients valuable time. Cases of concern will be referred appropriately.

Computerized Analysis of Current Nutrition Status

Included in your Medpoint intake form is a food diary for you to record your average daily food intake. Our advanced dietary software will calculate your percentage of fat, carbohydrates and protein intake. The Medpoint in house nutritionist will analyse that data and make recommendations on your diet.

Gait AnalysisGait

Gait analysis is the systematic study of animal locomotion, (more specific as a study of human walking) using the eye and the brain of observers, augmented by instrumentation for measuring body movements, body mechanics and the activity of the muscles. Gait analysis is used to assess, plan and treat individuals with conditions affecting their ability to walk. It is also commonly used in sports such as athletics to help athletes run more efficiently and to identify posture-related or movement-related problems in people with injuries.

Our GaitScan™ System is a revolutionary diagnostic tool for assessing our patient’s biomechanics. GaitScan™ has an industry high 4096 sensors and scans at an industry high 300Hz (scans per second). These measurements provide Medpoint with a sophisticated explanation of foot mechanics and assists them with orthotic and/or shoe solutions.
