An ECG (Electrocardiogram) is a simple, yet crucial diagnostic test that records the electrical impulses generated by the heart, which are responsible for regulating your heartbeat. By analyzing these impulses, doctors can determine whether your heart is functioning normally or showing signs of stress or abnormal rhythms. ECGs play a vital role in detecting arrhythmias (irregular heartbeats), diagnosing heart attacks—both current and past—and monitoring individuals with existing cardiac conditions. They are also commonly used to evaluate unexplained symptoms such as chest pain, dizziness, or fatigue, and to provide a baseline before surgeries or during routine health check-ups. Due to its speed, accuracy, and non-invasive nature, an ECG is often the first test ordered in emergency care and remains a cornerstone of cardiac evaluation and monitoring.
1)Detects Serious Conditions Early
Finds abnormalities such as arrhythmias, heart blocks, or myocardial ischemia (reduced blood flow to the heart).
2)Quick & Non-Invasive
No injections, no pain – just small electrodes placed on your skin.
3)Crucial for Emergency Evaluations
If you’re experiencing chest pain or shortness of breath, an ECG can guide doctors immediately.
4)Helps in Long-Term Heart Monitoring
Useful for patients with high blood pressure, diabetes, or a history of heart disease.
5)Cost-Effective & Widely Available
A simple and affordable test available at most clinics and hospitals, including Srujana.
Preparation & Placement of Electrodes:
Small, sticky patches (electrodes) are placed on the chest, arms, and legs to pick up electrical signals.
Recording the Heart’s Activity:
You will lie still for a few minutes while the machine records your heart’s electrical activity.
Instant Tracing Display:
The results (called an ECG strip) appear instantly on a monitor or are printed on paper.
Physician Review:
A doctor, usually a physician or cardiologist, examines the pattern for abnormalities.
Further Action if Needed:
If any irregularities are found, further tests (like ECHO, TMT, or blood tests) or treatments may be recommended.
