A resting electrocardiogram also known as a 12-lead EKG allows for the evaluation of your heart's electrical activity while you are at rest. This requires placing small sensors on your chest, arms, and legs to capture the signals generated from your heart. The resulting tracing often shows information about your heart rate, rhythm, and structural i
Electrocardiogram at Rest: Baseline Assessment
An electrocardiogram in a rested state is a fundamental tool used to establish a benchmark for an individual's heart function. This non-invasive procedure analyses the electrical activity of the myocardium as it beats, producing a visual representation known as an electrocardiographic tracing. During a resting ECG, the patient is in a comfortable p
