An electrocardiogram EKG at rest is a fundamental tool used to assess the electrical activity of the heart. It involves placing electrodes on the patient's chest, arms, and legs to record the heart's rhythm and identify any abnormalities. During the procedure, the patient remains seated or lying down in a comfortable environment while their more in
Electrocardiogram at Rest: Baseline Assessment
An electrocardiogram during resting is a fundamental tool used to establish a benchmark for an individual's heart function. This non-invasive procedure records the electrical activity of the myocardium as it performs its cycle, producing a visual representation known as an electrocardiographic tracing. During a resting ECG, the patient typically li
