Question

What's an ECG all about ?

Answer 1

The electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) is a diagnostic tool that measures and records the electrical activity of the heart in exquisite detail. Interpretation of these details allows diagnosis of a wide range of heart conditions. These conditions can vary from minor to life threatening.

Answer 8

it is a device which is used to measure the heart beats of human and it is profitable for heart patients.....it is called ECG as it examines the electrical activity ....A recording of the electrical activity of the heart.Electrodes are placed on the skin of the chest and connected in a specific order to a machine that, when turned on, measures electrical activity all overaround the heart. Output is usually in the form of a long scroll of paper displaying a printed graph of activity.

tccwhich gets repeatd in a cycle)
