Heart health technology: Unichem Cashel Street
Pulse wave analysis (PWA) machines are the global “gold standard” in non-invasive cardiovascular testing.
Cardiovascular disease and stroke are the number one cause of death in New Zealand, with one in 20 adults diagnosed. Cardiovascular disease is predominantly a ‘lifestyle disease’, which means that many heart conditions are preventable, or manageable, with early detection and timely intervention.
At Cashel Pharmacy, we use a PWA test to determine your risk factors for heart disease.
The information from the PWA will inform CardiAction, an innovative heart screening and intervention management app that empowers you to take control of your heart and artery health. Developed by a team of top-notch cardiologists and technology experts, this cutting-edge app revolutionises how we approach
heart care.
The app provides personalised recommendations based on your screening results, offering tailored interventions to address potential risks or concerns with lifestyle, nutrition, excercise, and supplement guidence.
Book through our website. After your PWA test, which takes about 30 minutes, our friendly screener will explain your results and assess your potential risk of cardiovascular disease, as well as show you how to use CardiAction to improve your heart and artery health—all with personalised recommendations.
