A heart and vascular screening event will be offered in Summerville later this month, giving area residents an opportunity to be checked for several potential warning signs associated with heart disease and stroke.

The screening will be held Friday, October 23, from 8 AM until 3 PM at AdventHealth Primary Care Urgent Care, located at 9777 Rome Boulevard in Summerville.

The AngioScreen costs $85 and is a non-invasive vascular screening that takes approximately 10 minutes.

The screening includes a carotid artery ultrasound, an EKG of the heart, an ankle-brachial index test to check for peripheral artery disease, and screening for abdominal aortic aneurysms.

The tests are designed to help identify potential risk factors associated with cardiovascular disease and stroke.

Because AngioScreen is a screening service, insurance is not accepted. Payment may be made by cash, check, credit card or debit card. Participants may also be able to use money from an employer-sponsored flexible spending account.

Appointments are required for the October 23 screening.

Anyone interested in scheduling an appointment can call 706-290-8008.

AdventHealth will bring its AngioScreen heart and vascular screening program to Mount Vernon Mills in Trion this Wednesday, August 26, giving area residents an opportunity to check for warning signs of heart and vascular disease.

The screenings will be offered from 6 AM until noon at Mount Vernon Mills, 91 Fourth Street in Trion. The cost is $85 per person.

AngioScreen is a non-invasive and painless vascular health screening designed to identify potential problems before symptoms develop. The screening takes approximately 15 minutes and includes a carotid artery ultrasound to check for plaque buildup, abdominal aortic aneurysm screening, an ankle-brachial index to evaluate circulation in the legs, an ECG to assess heart rhythm, blood pressure, and a review of vascular risk factors. Participants receive an immediate review of their results from the clinical team.

The screening may be especially important for people with cardiovascular risk factors, including those 55 or older, or those with high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, obesity, a history of smoking, or a family history of heart attack or stroke.

AdventHealth says up to 50 participants can be accommodated during the screening day. Appointments can be scheduled through the link provided by AdventHealth at bit.ly/MtVernonMills. Payment options include cash, checks, credit and debit cards, as well as HSA, TaxSaver and flexible spending cards.
