ECG

Overview

An ECG (Electrocardiogram) is a simple and quick test used to measure the electrical activity of the heart. At Avantis Clinic, ECG testing helps doctors detect heart rhythm abnormalities and assess overall heart health.

The test records the heart’s electrical signals and helps identify irregular heartbeats, heart damage, or signs of heart disease. ECG plays an important role in diagnosing cardiac conditions and monitoring heart function.
