An electrocardiogram (ECG) or EKG, performed at rest is a non-invasive procedure that measures the electrical activity of the heart. That involves placing small adhesive electrodes on the chest, arms, and legs to detect the tiny bioelectric signals produced by the heartbeat. These signals are then amplified and recorded on a graph paper or digital

An electrocardiogram at rest is a fundamental tool used to establish a reference point for an individual's heart function. This non-invasive procedure analyses the electrical activity of the heart as it beats, producing a visual representation known as an electrocardiographic tracing. During a resting ECG, the patient typically lies down while elec
