A resting electrocardiogram (ECG) provides a baseline assessment of the patient's heart function. During this non-invasive procedure, electrodes are positioned on the chest, arms, and legs to record the electrical activity of the heart. The resulting ECG waves display the rhythm and amplitude of the heart's contractions. Evaluation of this data by
Understanding Electrocardiograms
An electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) is a non-invasive diagnostic test that measures the electrical activity of the myocardium. It presents invaluable insights into the heart's rhythm, configuration, and overall status. ekg testing A typical ECG involves placing small electrodes on the chest, limbs, and rarely the arms. These electrodes send electric
