Electrocardiogram (ECG) is a non-invasive medical test that records the electrical activity of the heart over a short period. Electrodes placed on the chest and limbs detect the heart’s electrical signals, creating a graph (ECG) showing the heart’s rhythm and helping diagnose various heart conditions and abnormalities.
