We’re part of the respected Halifax Health system, and we’re pleased to offer a wide array of lab tests for local residents and visitors.
What Is an Electrocardiogram?
An electrocardiogram records electrical signals within the heart. Medical providers can use electrocardiograms to help diagnose numerous conditions affecting the heart, including:
- Abnormal electrical conduction
- Arrhythmias (irregular heartbeats)
- Coronary artery disease
- Heart attacks
- Heart chamber enlargement
- Heart failure
Electrocardiograms can also be used to assess how someone’s heart is performing following treatment (for example, after taking medication or undergoing surgery).
It’s important to note that while Halifax Health ExpressCare can treat a wide array of mild illnesses and injuries, conditions that are potentially life- or limb-threatening require emergency care. So, be sure to call 911 or visit a nearby hospital if you think you may be experiencing a heart attack, a stroke, or another dangerous condition, or if you’re having severe symptoms such as chest pain or difficulty breathing.
