ECG Test in JP Nagar, Bengaluru
Book AppointmentAbout ECG
An Electrocardiogram, or ECG, is a quick, non-invasive test that records the electrical activity of the heart.
It is commonly used as an initial cardiac investigation and may also be used for routine screening, pre-operative evaluation and monitoring.
Overview
What is an ECG?
The heart produces electrical signals that control its rhythm and contraction.
During an ECG, small electrodes are placed on the skin to record these electrical signals and produce a graphical tracing.
Why is ECG Recommended?
ECG may be performed for:
- Chest discomfort
- Palpitations
- Dizziness
- Breathlessness
- Irregular heartbeat
- Routine health assessments
- Pre-operative evaluation
- Monitoring known heart conditions
What Can ECG Help Evaluate?
ECG can help identify:
- Abnormal heart rhythms
- Heart-rate abnormalities
- Certain conduction problems
- Selected electrical changes associated with cardiac conditions
- Certain changes associated with reduced blood supply
How is an ECG Performed?
The patient lies comfortably.
Electrodes are attached to specific areas of the chest and limbs.
The ECG machine records the electrical activity for a short period.
The tracing is then reviewed by an appropriate healthcare professional.
Preparation
Usually, no special preparation is required.
Patients should avoid applying heavy lotions or oils to the skin before the test because they can interfere with electrode contact.
