Electrocardiogram
Same-day ECG, with a prompt medical report.
An electrocardiogram (ECG) records the heart’s electrical activity and is a vital test for assessing heart rhythm and detecting abnormalities. At ForHealth, we carry it out on the same day, with a prompt medical report.
What is it used for?
- Assessment of heart rhythm
- Detection of arrhythmias and other abnormalities
- Support for check-ups and the assessment of symptoms (palpitations, chest pain)
How is the test carried out?
It is quick, painless and non-invasive: electrodes are placed on the skin to record the heart’s activity for a few minutes. The medical report is available within 24 hours.
