Imaging and investigations
What is an electrocardiogram? It is an instrumental method for the investigation and reference diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases performed with the help of the electrocardiograph by recording a graphical trace corresponding to the electrical currents produced by the heart during its activity, and the interpretation is corroborated with clinical data.
Placement of electrodes:
Placement of electrodes is preceded by mental and physical preparation of the patient who must be relaxed, positioned in dorsal decubitus, after which we clean, degrease, disinfect and apply gel for better registration on:
Why is it important to do this investigation?
It is important to check your heart rhythm regularly to rule out any heart muscle disease or electrical damage.
Any change in heart rhythm can cause various risk factors such as aging, cardiovascular problems, congenital heart defects, myocardial infarction, thyroid disorders, smoking, alcohol, caffeine, etc.
How is it done?
The patient, when entering the doctor’s office for the first time, will undergo a general inspection where they will be asked to remove the clothes covering their chest, ankles and wrists.
Adhesive medical electrodes will be placed over the uncovered areas. These will record the heart rhythm and electrical activity of the heart.
The electrodes are then connected to the EKG machine, and the patient will have to breathe normally and lie still, without speaking, for a few seconds.
The duration of an electrocardiogram is no more than 10 minutes.
The procedure is a painless investigation. The only discomfort occurs when the electrodes are removed at the end of the investigation.
