ECG (Electrocardiogram)
ECG (Electrocardiogram) is a medical test measuring the electrical activity of the heart.
What does an ECG measure?
- Heart rate and rhythm
- Electrical impulses
- Heart chamber contractions
- Abnormalities in heart function
Types of ECG:
- Resting ECG (12-lead)
- Stress ECG (exercise or treadmill test)
- Ambulatory ECG (Holter monitor, 24-hour)
- Event monitor (long-term, portable)
ECG uses
- 1. Diagnose heart conditions (arrhythmias, coronary artery disease)
- 2. Monitor heart health
- 3. Detect electrolyte imbalances
- 4. Check pacemaker function

- P-wave (atrial contraction)
- QRS complex (ventricular contraction)
- T-wave (ventricular recovery)
- ST segment (ventricular repolarization)
