What Are Electrocardiograms Used to Diagnose?
Commonly referred to as ECGs or EKGs, electrocardiograms can be used to diagnose a wide range of heart conditions, including:
- Abnormal electrical conduction
- Arrhythmias (irregular heartbeats)
- Coronary artery disease
- Heart attacks
- Heart chamber enlargement
- Heart failure
Your doctor may also recommend that you undergo an electrocardiogram to monitor how your heart is functioning after taking medication or undergoing surgery. Be sure to call 911 or visit a nearby hospital if you think you may be experiencing a life- or limb-threatening emergency.
How Do Electrocardiograms Work?
Electrocardiograms work by recording electrical signals within the heart. One of our skilled providers will begin by adhering numerous electrodes to your chest (and possibly to your arms and/or legs). The electrodes will be connected to a nearby computer, which will display waves indicating how electrical signals are traveling through your heart. Once the test is complete, our team will interpret the results.
