What is an ECG?
An Electrocardiogram (ECG) is a simple, non-invasive test that records the electrical signals produced by the heart.
Small electrodes are placed on specific areas of the body to record the heart's electrical activity. The resulting ECG tracing helps doctors assess the heart rate, rhythm, and certain electrical patterns that may indicate a cardiac condition.
An ECG may be recommended as part of a routine health check-up or when a patient experiences symptoms that may require cardiac evaluation.
When is an ECG Recommended?
Doctors may recommend an ECG for patients experiencing or being evaluated for:
- Chest Pain or Discomfort
- Palpitations
- Irregular Heartbeat
- Breathlessness
- Dizziness
- Fainting or Near-Fainting
- Unexplained Fatigue
- High Blood Pressure
- Known Heart Conditions
- Before Certain Surgical Procedures
- Routine Cardiac Health Evaluation
An ECG may also be performed as part of a Master Health Check-Up or preventive health assessment.
What Can an ECG Help Evaluate?
An ECG can provide valuable information about:
- Heart Rate
- Heart Rhythm
- Certain Abnormal Heart Rhythms
- Electrical Conduction Problems

ECG findings are interpreted by a qualified medical professional along with the patient's symptoms, medical history, examination, and other investigations when required.
