Electrocardiogram (ECG / EKG)
An Electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) is a quick, painless test that records the electrical activity of your heart. It helps your doctor detect heart conditions such as arrhythmias and other cardiac abnormalities by analyzing your heart’s rhythm and electrical signals.
This test helps to:
Detect irregular heart rhythms (arrhythmias)
Identify signs of a past or current heart attack
Assess the cause of chest pain, dizziness, or palpitations
Monitor heart function for high-risk patients
Evaluate how heart medications are working
What an Internist Does
As a frontline adult care specialist, the internist plays a key role in early detection and prevention of heart disease through ECG screening.
Here’s how your internist is involved:
Recommends the Test: If you experience chest discomfort and pain, palpitations, shortness of breath, or fatigue, your internist may suggest an ECG.
Performs or Supervises the ECG: The ECG is done in-clinic and usually takes just a few minutes. Small electrodes are placed on your chest, arms, and legs to record heart signals.
Interprets the Results: The internist evaluates your ECG trace for any abnormalities in rhythm, rate, or signs of heart strain or damage.
Explains the Findings: Results are reviewed with you immediately, and any concerns are clearly explained.
Provides a Care Plan: Based on the findings, the doctor may adjust your medications, recommend lifestyle changes, or refer you to a cardiologist if needed.
