RESTING ELECTROCARDIOGRAPHY

An electrocardiogram (ECG), also known as an electrocardiograph, is a simple examination that measures the electrical activity of your heart. During a resting ECG, you will lie down while electrodes are placed on your chest, arms, and legs. These electrodes capture the heart rhythms to a machine which graphs them as waves on a chart. A resting ECG

An electrocardiogram (ECG) or EKG at rest is a fundamental tool 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 transmission, which can point towards underlying heart conditions. During a resting ECG, electr
