ECG is important test for heart evaluation done in advanced diabetes center

Electrocardiogram or ECG is a test for the heart. 12 leads are applied over different parts of the body and a standard 12 lead ECG is taken. At  our centre we have 3 ECG machines. ELECTROCARDIOGRAM is a test to detect the electrical activity of the heart .Abnormalities in heart function leads to abnormalities in ECG .This helps to detect silent heart attacks, ongoing ischemia, cardiac rhythm abnormalities .This test can rule out with almost 90% certainty of a normal cardiac status. DiseaseFragment leads to abnormal cholesterol and increased formation of plaques in heart arteries leading to heart attacks

Ecg detects abnormalities of heart . it detects heart attacks or myocardial infarctions , and stable and ischemic heart disease . it also detects whether heart chambers are enlarged . and also for rhythm irregularities  called cardiac arrhythmias.

Diabteics are prone to cardiac problems . In fact Diabetes is many times called a vascular disease. Hence ECG is doen routinely once every 4-6 months in a diabetic and also if patient complaints of chest pain , breathlessness, palpitations, breathlessness on exertion, giddiness , blackouts , syncope or near syncope . It is also done if Blood pressure is high or pre operatively for surgical fitness. It is performed post discharge of a cardiac patient.

ECG denotes whether there was an old heart attack or whether there is any ongoing attack. Timely reported ecg and prompt action taken can save many lives due to myocardial infarction.
