ECG

A quick, non-invasive test that records your heart’s electrical activity to help assess your heart rate, rhythm, and overall heart function.

An electrocardiogram (ECG) is a simple and painless test that measures the electrical activity of your heart. Small adhesive electrodes are placed on your chest, arms, and legs to record your heart’s rhythm and electrical signals.

An ECG may be recommended to investigate symptoms such as chest discomfort, shortness of breath, dizziness, or an irregular heartbeat, or as part of an overall heart health assessment. The test takes only a few minutes and requires no recovery time.
