An example of a portable electrocardiogram (ECG) is the Holter monitor. While you are away from the doctor's office, it constantly monitors the heart's electrical activity for 24 hours or longer. One of the simplest and quickest tests used to check the heart is a standard or "resting" ECG. At specific locations on the chest and belly, electrodes—small plastic patches that adhere to the skin—are applied. Wires link the electrodes to the ECG device. The heart's electrical activity may then be monitored, written down, and printed. The body receives no electrical energy. The multiple cardiac muscle contractions are coordinated by natural electrical impulses. As a result, blood continues to circulate normally. These electrical impulses are recorded by an ECG to display the heart rate, the regularity or irregularity of the heartbeats, and the intensity and timing of the electrical impulses. ECG variations can indicate a variety of heart-related diseases.
