EKG (Electrocardiogram)

The EKG (Electrocardiogram) is one of the most vital, foundational tools in cardiovascular diagnostics. At AZ Cardiology, this quick, painless, and non-invasive test provides a snapshot of your heart's electrical activity, helping Dr. Anand and our team swiftly assess your heart rhythm and function.

What an EKG Reveals About Your Heart Health

An EKG is essential for:

• Assessing Heart Rhythm: Identifying an irregular heart beat or arrhythmia.
• Detecting Damage: Finding evidence of a previous heart attack or signs of current coronary artery disease.
• Monitoring Treatment: Evaluating how effective current heart medication or implanted devices are working.

The EKG Procedure: Quick and Painless

During the Electrocardiogram test, electrodes are temporarily placed on your chest and limbs to record the heart's electrical waves. The entire process takes only a few minutes and requires no special preparation.
