The test is done in a quiet, comfortable room.
1.The patient is asked to lie down on an examination table.
2.A few small, sticky sensors (electrodes) are placed on the chest, arms, and legs.
3.These electrodes are connected to an ECG machine through thin wires.
4.The machine records the electrical signals from the heart and displays them as wavy lines on a screen or printout.    The entire process usually takes 5 to 10 minutes. It does not cause any pain — you’ll only feel a mild cool sensation when the electrodes are applied.

No special preparation is usually needed, but for the best results: Avoid applying oil, lotion, or powder on your chest before the test. Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothes that can be easily removed or opened at the front. Inform your doctor about any medications you are taking, as some may affect heart rhythm.

The ECG provides valuable information about: Heart rate – whether it is too fast, too slow, or normal. Heart rhythm – whether the heartbeat pattern is regular or irregular. Electrical conduction – how electrical impulses move through the heart. Signs of heart attack or damage – whether parts of the heart muscle are not receiving enough oxygen. Heart chamber size and thickness – to detect enlargement due to high blood pressure or heart disease. A cardiologist or trained doctor interprets these readings to diagnose heart problems and plan further treatment if needed.
