ELECTROCARDIOGRAPHY AT REST

An electrocardiogram (ECG), referred to as an electrocardiograph, is a simple test that records 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 send the electrical signals to a device which records them as waves on a chart. A resting ECG is ty

A resting electrocardiogram (ECG) is a primary diagnostic tool used to evaluate the basic electrical activity of the myocardium. It provides a picture of the myocardial rhythm at rest, demonstrating any deviations in speed. This simple procedure involves placing leads on the individual's chest, arms, and legs to detect the waves generated by the h
