A resting electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) is a painless test that measures the electrical patterns of your heart. During this test, you will be asked to lie down quietly while electrodes are placed to your chest, arms, and legs. These electrodes transmit the electrical signals from your heart to a machine that generates a graph of your heart cycle.

A resting electrocardiogram (ECG), also known as an EKG, is a non-invasive procedure that records the electrical activity of the heart. Experienced cardiologists carefully analyze the ECG waveform to identify any abnormalities in heart rhythm or structure. The resulting ECG tracing provides valuable insights about the heart's health.
