Tests may include urinalysis, urine culture, blood tests, imaging tests (ultrasound, CT scan), and urodynamic testing.

Elderly individuals experiencing age-related health issues or those needing comprehensive care for chronic conditions should consider geriatric care.
Look for providers with specialised training in geriatrics, experience with elderly patients, and a comprehensive approach to care.

3. ECG
An Electrocardiogram (ECG) is a test that measures the electrical activity of the heart to identify heart rhythm issues, heart attacks, and other cardiac conditions.
No special preparation is usually required. You may be asked to remove any metal objects or wear a hospital gown for ease of access to the chest area.
You can eat and drink normally before the test. However, avoid consuming large amounts of caffeine or alcohol as they might affect the results.
ECGs are very safe and non-invasive. There are no known risks or side effects associated with the test.
In most cases, you can continue taking your medications as prescribed. However, inform your healthcare provider about any medications you are taking.
