What is ECG Testing?

An ECG (electrocardiogram) heart scan is a basic investigation to help diagnose if there are any potential problems with your heart function. The test is for anyone who experiences:

Irregular heartbeat
Shortness of breath as you exert yourself
Significantly high blood pressure
Heart palpitations
A suspected heart valve problem

ECG testing is completely safe and pain-free. It involves attaching a number of sticky electrodes or small sensors to the arms, legs and chest area.
