An electrocardiogram (ECG) is a essential device for assessing the electrical activity of the heart. A resting state ECG provides a snapshot of the heart's performance when it is not under strain. This assessment typically involves placing small, sticky electrodes on the chest, arms, and legs to detect the impulses generated by the heart as it beat
An Overview Electrocardiogram at Rest
A resting electrocardiogram (ECG) provides a valuable snapshot of your heart's function. During this simple test, electrodes are applied to your chest, arms, and legs. These electrodes record the tiny impulses that regulate your heart's rhythm. The resulting tracing, a series of curves, illustrates important data about the health of your cardiovasc
