ECG

Welcome to the ECG Services department at Ndola Diagnostics & Imaging Centre, where advanced technology and expert care combine to provide precise cardiac assessments. Our ECG services are essential for evaluating heart health, diagnosing cardiac conditions, and guiding effective treatment plans.

What is an ECG?

An Electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) is a non-invasive test that measures the electrical activity of the heart. It provides valuable information about the heart’s rhythm, rate, and electrical conduction system. By analyzing this data, doctors can detect various heart conditions, including arrhythmias, heart attacks, and other cardiac abnormalities.

Our ECG Services

Resting ECG

 A resting ECG records the heart’s electrical activity while you are at rest. This test is used to detect heart rate and rhythm abnormalities, as well as other cardiac conditions such as ischemia or previous heart attacks.

Stress ECG (Exercise ECG)

 A stress ECG, also known as an exercise ECG or treadmill test, monitors the heart’s activity during physical exertion. It helps identify issues that may not be apparent during rest, such as exercise-induced arrhythmias or ischemia.

Holter Monitoring

 Holter monitoring involves wearing a portable ECG device for 24-48 hours to continuously record the heart’s electrical activity. It is useful for detecting intermittent arrhythmias and monitoring heart activity during daily activities.

Event Monitoring

 Event monitoring is similar to Holter monitoring but is used for longer periods, typically up to a month. Patients activate the device when they experience symptoms, providing targeted data for diagnosing sporadic cardiac events.

Ambulatory ECG

 Ambulatory ECG monitoring records the heart’s activity over an extended period, usually 24 hours or more, while the patient goes about their daily routine. It is particularly useful for detecting transient arrhythmias and assessing the effectiveness of treatments.
