Electrocardiography

Electrocardiography (ECG) is a non-invasive diagnostic test that records the electrical activity of the heart over a period of time. It provides valuable information about the heart's rhythm and electrical conduction system, aiding in the diagnosis of various cardiac abnormalities such as arrhythmias and conduction disorders. ECGs are crucial for identifying irregularities in heart rate and rhythm, helping healthcare providers assess the risk of cardiac events and plan appropriate interventions. Additionally, ECGs are often used as a routine screening tool in clinical settings to monitor heart health and evaluate the effects of medication or interventions on cardiac function.
