About ECG
An ECG (Electrocardiogram) records the electrical activity of the heart over a period of time. It is one of the most common cardiac tests used to detect heart problems quickly and non-invasively.
ECG is painless, quick, and provides vital information about heart rate, rhythm, and electrical conduction. It is used to diagnose arrhythmias, heart attacks, and other cardiac conditions.
ECG is the first line of cardiac investigation — quick, painless, and provides immediate insights into heart health. Results available within minutes.
