Understanding ECG
An ECG records the electrical signals in your heart. It's a common and painless test used to quickly detect heart problems and monitor your heart's health. The procedure involves placing electrodes on your skin to measure the electrical activity of your heart, represented by waveforms on a monitor or paper printout.
Why You Might Need an ECG
- To detect irregular heartbeats (arrhythmias)
- To diagnose the cause of chest pain
- To evaluate problems such as dizziness, fainting, or heart palpitations
- To assess the effectiveness of heart disease treatments, such as pacemakers
