What is an EKG?
An EKG is a simple, painless test that records your heart electrical activity through small skin electrodes to evaluate heart rhythm and function.
Why is EKG performed?
EKG supports diagnosis, prevention, pre-surgical clearance, and treatment monitoring for symptoms such as chest pain, palpitations, dizziness, shortness of breath, and fainting.
Types of EKG procedures
Several EKG-based options are used depending on symptom pattern.
- Standard resting EKG
- Stress testing during exercise
- Holter monitoring (24-48 hours)
- Event monitoring for intermittent symptoms
