Understanding EKG

EKG (Electrocardiogram) is a medical test that checks your heart's electrical activity. Your heart's rhythm and rate are determined by this activity. Irregularities in heart rate or rhythm, heart failure, and signs of past or current heart attacks can all be detected by an EKG.

The Importance Of Regular EKGs

Getting regular EKGs is vital, especially if you have a history of heart disease or have major risk factors such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol levels, or a family history of heart conditions. The EKG can pick up changes in your heart health before you notice any physical symptoms, making it a crucial tool in preventing and treating potential heart conditions.

Steps You Can Take Beyond the EKG
