An electrocardiogram (ECG), also known as an electrocardiograph, is a simple procedure that measures the electrical activity of your heart. During a resting ECG, you remain still while electrodes are connected to your chest, arms, and legs. These electrodes capture the wave patterns to a monitor which graphs them as waves on a display.

Electrocardiography at Rest: A Baseline Assessment
An electrocardiogram (ECG) or electrocardiograph at rest is a fundamental tool in cardiology. It provides a snapshot of the heart's electrical activity while a patient is calmly resting. This baseline assessment helps to identify any abnormalities in the heart's rhythm or electrical signals, which can point towards underlying cardiac diseases. Duri
