Understanding ECG

An electrocardiogram (ECG) is a test that records the electrical activity of the heart. It is a crucial tool in diagnosing arrhythmias.

How ECG Works

During an ECG, electrodes are placed on the skin to detect electrical signals. The resulting graph helps doctors identify irregularities in heart rhythm.

“ECGs are essential for accurate diagnosis and treatment of heart conditions.”

Interpreting ECG Results

Healthcare providers analyze the ECG results to determine the type of arrhythmia and recommend appropriate treatment options.
