About this procedure

An electrocardiogram (EKG/ECG) records your heart's electrical activity through 10 sticky pads placed on your chest, arms, and legs.

What to expect

The test is painless and takes about 5 minutes. You'll lie still on a table while the machine records. Doctors order EKGs to check for irregular rhythms, signs of a past heart attack, or before certain procedures. Results are usually available immediately.
