A resting electrocardiogram commonly referred to as a 12-lead EKG provides valuable insights into your heart's electrical activity while you are at rest. This procedure involves placing adhesive electrodes on your chest, arms, and legs to capture the signals emitted by your heart. The resulting tracing may demonstrate information about your heart r
Electrocardiogram at Rest: Baseline Assessment
An electrocardiogram in a rested state is a fundamental tool used to establish a baseline for an individual's heart function. This non-invasive procedure monitors the electrical activity of the cardiac muscle as it contracts, producing a visual representation known as an ECG. During a resting ECG, the patient typically lies down while electrodes ar
