A resting electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) serves as a primary baseline assessment of the heart's electrical activity. During this painless procedure, electrodes are placed on your chest, arms, and legs to record the small electrical signals produced by your heart as it contracts. A resting ECG can reveal various abnormalities, including irregular he
Electrocardiographic Assessment at Rest
An electrocardiogram (ECG), commonly referred to as an EKG, is a valuable tool for assessing the signal conduction of the heart. During a resting ECG assessment, patients are asked to remain still while electrodes are attached to their chest, arms, and legs. This enables the recording of the heart's electrical impulses as they travel through the he
