A resting electrocardiogram (ECG) is a common procedure used to monitor the conduction system of your heart. During a resting ECG, you will lie down still while electrodes are placed on your chest, arms, and legs. These electrodes measure the tiny electrical impulses generated by your heart as it contracts. The resulting tracing provides valuable d
An electrocardiogram (ECG), referred to as an electrocardiograph, is a safe test that measures the electrical activity of your heart. During a resting ECG, you will lie down while electrodes are connected to your chest, arms, and legs. These electrodes send the electrical signals to a device which records them as waves on a chart. A resting ECG is
An electrocardiogram (ECG) or electrocardiograph at rest is a fundamental method in cardiology. It provides a record of the heart's electrical activity while a patient is quietly resting. This baseline assessment helps to detect any abnormalities in the heart's rhythm or conduction, which can point towards underlying heart conditions. During a rest
